In this paper the occurrence of leptospirosis was studied by the search of agglutininis antileptospira, in 10 dogs with symptoms of the disease. Another group of 22 animals with hepatic or renal insufficiency was also studied for the correlation between both insufficiency and leptospirosis. Finally, a third group of 40 dogs, clinically normal, was also included in this study. In 60% of suspected cases the clinical diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of specific agglutinins to serotypes icterohaemorrhagiae, canícola, grippotyphosa and bataviae. Among animals with renal or hepatic insufficiency it was found 36.3% of reagents while in the normal group the rate was only 7.5%. The serotype butembo was detected serologically in dogs for the first time in Brazil.
在本文中，通过检测抗钩端螺旋体凝集素，对10只有该病症状的犬进行了钩端螺旋体病发病情况的研究。还对另一组22只有肝或肾功能不全的动物进行了研究，以探讨这两种功能不全与钩端螺旋体病之间的相关性。最后，本研究还纳入了第三组40只临床正常的犬。在60%的疑似病例中，通过存在针对黄疸出血型、犬型、七日热型和巴达维亚型血清型的特异性凝集素，临床诊断得到了证实。在有肝或肾功能不全的动物中，检测到36.3%呈阳性反应，而在正常组中这一比例仅为7.5%。血清型布滕博首次在巴西的犬类中通过血清学检测到。
