Resumo: This work aimed to determine the seroprevalence and epidemiological variables associated to Leishmania spp. infection in dogs from five locations of Tirirical District, in São Luís, Maranhão State, Brazil. Seventy-two houses were visited and samples of one hundred dogs were taken. A questionnaire was applied in order to investigate the possible factors related to the Leishmania infection. The following variables were used: forest proximity from the residence, livestock of domestic animals or shelter of wild animals, sex, age and breed. Clinical examination was also performed looking for clinical signs compatible to the infection. The serological analysis revealed that 67 samples were reactive. The clinical signs observed were focal lymphadenophaty, alopecia, weight loss, cutaneous ulcers, skin desquamation, keratoconjuntivitis and onycogrifosis. Animals from Cruzeiro de Santa Bárbara and Cajupari, both locations near the forest, have 3.4 and 12.0 more chances of being reactive to Leishmania spp. than the ones in the other studied locations. No statistical relation was found between seropositive dogs and any other variables.KEYWORDS: Associated factors, canine visceral leishmaniasis, epidemiology,  seroprevalence.

Foram visitadas 72 moradias, perfazendo uma amostra de cem cães domiciliados, e aplicados questionários com o objetivo de determinar os fatores que poderiam estar relacionados com a ocorrência da infecção. Utilizaram-se como variáveis: proximidade da moradia com a mata, existência de criação/abrigo de animais de produção e de animais silvestres, sexo, idade, raça, além de exame clínico do animal, com observação da presença de sinais clínicos compatíveis com a doença. A análise sorológica demonstrou que 67 amostras apresentaram-se positivas para Leishmania spp. Os sinais clínicos observados foram linfadenopatia localizada, alopecia, pelo opaco, emagrecimento, úlceras cutâneas, descamação furfurácea, ceratoconjuntivite, e onicogrifose. Animais das localidades Cruzeiro de Santa Bárbara e Cajupari, ambas localizadas próximas de matas, têm 3,4 e 12,0 vezes mais chances de serem soropositivos para Leishmania spp. do que aqueles das outras localidades estudadas. Não se verificou correlação entre as outras variáveis estudadas e soropositividade para Leishmania spp.PALAVRAS-CHAVES: Epidemiologia, fatores associados, leishmaniose visceral canina, soroprevalência.Universidade Federal de Goiás2010-10-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionResearchAvaliado por paresPesquisa Científicaapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/593310.5216/cab.v11i3.5933Brazilian Animal Science/ Ciência Animal Brasileira; Vol. 11 No. 3 (2010); 653 - 659Ciência Animal Brasileira / Brazilian Animal Science; v. 11 n. 3 (2010); 653 - 6591809-68911518-2797reponame:Ciência animal brasileira (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/5933/7934https://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/5933/8620Barbosa, David SoeiroRocha, Alessandra LimaSantana, Andressa AlmeidaSouza, Celeste da Silva Freitas deDias, Ricardo AugustoCosta-Júnior, Lívio MartinsAbreu-Silva, Ana Lúciainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2010-10-02T15:22:45Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/5933Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/vetPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/oai||revistacab@gmail.com1809-68911518-2797opendoar:2024-05-21T19:55:23.466330Ciência animal brasileira (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)true
