The prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in dogs was studied in the province of Córdoba (southern Spain), with special attention to those parasites that can be transmitted to man. The experiment was completed with the examination of soil samples from public parks and city gardens. The study was carried out over a population of 1800 animals entered in the Control Animal Centre (CECA) by coprological methods, and within this group, 300 dogs were sacrificed and necropsied. The prevalence of any intestinal parasitic infection was 71.33%. The following parasites of the gastrointestinal tract were recorded: Isospora canis (22%), Isospora (Cystoisospora) spp. (10.22%), Sarcocystis (2.5%), Hammondia/Neospora (1.94%), Giardia canis (1%), Dipylidium caninum (13.2%), Taenia hydatigena (7.66%), Taenia pisiformis (4%), Uncinaria stenocephala (33.27%), Toxascaris leonina (14.94%), Toxocara canis (17.72%) and Trichuris vulpis (1.66%). Related to public health, it is important to point out the presence of T. canis only in puppies younger than one year and Uncinaria, more frequent in adult dogs. Soil samples of parks revealed the presence of eggs of Toxocara, and it suggests the existence of real risk for human infection.
在西班牙南部的科尔多瓦省，对犬类胃肠道寄生虫的流行情况进行了研究，特别关注那些可传播给人类的寄生虫。通过对公园和城市花园的土壤样本进行检测，完成了该实验。研究采用粪便学方法，对进入动物控制中心（CECA）的1800只动物进行了检测，其中300只犬被处死后进行解剖。肠道寄生虫感染的总体患病率为71.33%。记录到的胃肠道寄生虫如下：犬等孢球虫（22%）、等孢球虫（囊等孢球虫属）（10.22%）、肉孢子虫（2.5%）、哈蒙德孢虫/新孢子虫（1.94%）、犬贾第虫（1%）、犬复孔绦虫（13.2%）、泡状带绦虫（7.66%）、豆状带绦虫（4%）、窄头钩虫（33.27%）、狮弓蛔虫（14.94%）、犬弓首蛔虫（17.72%）和狐毛首线虫（1.66%）。与公共卫生相关的是，需要指出仅在一岁以下幼犬中发现犬弓首蛔虫，而窄头钩虫在成年犬中更为常见。公园土壤样本中发现了犬弓首蛔虫的虫卵，这表明存在人类感染的实际风险。
