DETECCIÓN DE ANTICUERPOS ANTI-Leishmania (Trypanosomatidae) EN POBLACIONES CANINAS DEL DEPARTAMENTO DE SUCRE, COLOMBIA

Abstract

<p class="p1"><strong>RESUMEN</strong></p><p class="p2">El objetivo de la investigación fue determinar la prevalencia de anticuerpos anti-Leishmania en perros del departamento de Sucre, Colombia. Se analizaron 122 perros del área rural de los municipios de Ovejas, Sampués y Sincelejo, mediante la técnica de inmunofluorescencia indirecta (IFI). Anticuerpos anti-Leishmania fueron detectados en el 69,6 % (IC95 % = 61,1 – 78,2) de la población canina estudiada. En el municipio de Sincelejo la seropositividad fue del 72 % (IC95 % = 61,1 – 82,8), en el municipio de Sampués del 68,4 % (IC95 % = 52,3 – 84,5) y en el municipio de Ovejas del 55,5 % (IC95 % = 21,2 – 86,3). Los animales seropositivos fueron principalmente caninos jóvenes y adultos. El 17,6 % de los perros seropositivos mostró signos clínicos compatibles con leishmaniasis canina, entre los cuales la onicogrifosis, alopecia y caquexia fueron los más comunes. La alta frecuencia de caninos con anticuerpos a Leishmania detectada en el presente estudio, pone de manifiesto la hiperendemicidad de la leishmaniasis canina en esta zona del país, así como el alto riesgo de brotes epidémicos de la enfermedad.</p><p class="p1"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p class="p2">The aim of this survey was to determine prevalence of antibodies against Leishmania in dogs from Sucre, Colombia. We analyzed 122 dogs in rural areas from municipalities of Sampués, Ovejas and Sincelejo, by indirect immunofluorescence (IFA). Anti-Leishmania antibodies were detected in 69.6 % (95 % CI = 61.1 to 78.2) of the selected canine population. In the municipality of Sincelejo, Sampues and Ovejas, the seropositivities were 72 % (95 % CI = 61.1 to 82.8), 68.4 % (95 % CI = 52.3 to 84.5) and 55.5 % (95 % CI = 21.2 to 86.3) respectively. Seropositive animals were mainly young and adult dogs. The 17.6 % of seropositive dogs showed clinical signs compatible with canine leishmaniasis; onychogryphosis, alopecia and cachexia were the most common ones. The detected high frequency of canines with antibodies against Leishmania in the present study, highlights the hyperendemicity status of canine leishmaniasis in this area of the country and the high risk of disease outbreaks.</p>
