Abstract

Although the seroprevalence of Chlamydia psittaci is widespread in Italian dairy herds, its role in inducing genital disorders has not been elucidated. We therefore set up a case-control study to compare seroprevalence to C. psittaci in an aborted-cow population and in a randomly selected control group in the province of Parma (the Po Valley of northern Italy). The true seroprevalence (45%) in aborted cows was significantly higher than that in the control group (24%) (adjusted odds ratio=2.53).

摘要

虽然鹦鹉热衣原体的血清阳性率在意大利奶牛群中广泛存在，但其在引发生殖系统疾病中的作用尚未阐明。因此，我们开展了一项病例对照研究，以比较帕尔马省（意大利北部波河河谷地区）流产母牛群体和随机选取的对照组中鹦鹉热衣原体的血清阳性率。流产母牛的实际血清阳性率（45%）显著高于对照组（24%）（校正比值比 = 2.53）。
