Estudo Retrospectivo - Leptospirose canina no Baixo Alentejo

Abstract

A leptospirose é uma zoonose causada por espécies do género Leptospira, com grande importância para saúde pública. Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo com o objetivo de caracterizar uma amostra de 38 cães diagnosticados com leptospirose na região do Baixo Alentejo, durante um período de cinco anos (2020-2025). A partir dos dados obtidos, investigou-se uma possível associação entre alterações clinicas, laboratoriais e imagiológicas com o desfecho clínico. Adicionalmente, procurou-se averiguar a influência da precipitação local no risco de transmissão da bactéria. Os resultados evidenciaram a ausência de correlação entre a precipitação e a ocorrência de leptospirose. Verificou-se uma associação entre administração de doxiciclina e a sobrevida dos pacientes. Por outro lado, a ocorrência de sialorreia e lesão renal aguda (Grau 5) estiveram associadas a maior mortalidade; Retrospective study – canine leptospirosis in Baixo Alentejo - Abstract: Leptospirosis is a zoonosis causes by species of the genus Leptospira, with great importance to public health. A retrospective study was conducted to characterize a sample of 38 dogs diagnosed with leptospirosis in Baixo Alentejo over a five-year period (2020-2025). Based on the data, a possible association between clinical, laboratory and Imaging changes with the clinical outcome was investigated. Additionally, the influence of local precipitation on the risk of bacterial transmission was investigated. The results showed no correlation between precipitation and the occurrence of leptospirosis. An association was found between doxycycline administration and patient survival. On the other hand, the occurrence of sialorrhea and acute kidney injury (Grade 5) were associated with higher mortality.
