The aim of this study was to assess the seroprevalence of Toscana virus (TOSV) in the Community of Madrid.
Samples from two serosurveys obtained during 1993-1994 (2262 individuals) and 1999-2000 (1945 individuals) were studied. Samples were tested by ELISA for TOSV IgG detection.
The seroprevalence of TOSV IgG was significantly higher in 1993-1994 (7.2%; 95% CI 6.2-8.4) than in 1999-2000 (5.7%; 95% CI 4.7-6.9) (chi-square, p < 0.05). In both periods, the prevalence increased significantly with age.
These results confirm that TOSV has been circulating in the Community of Madrid over the last years.
本研究旨在评估马德里自治区托斯卡纳病毒(TOSV)的血清阳性率。
对1993 - 1994年(2262人)和1999 - 2000年(1945人)两次血清学调查采集的样本进行研究。通过酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)检测样本中的TOSV IgG。
1993 - 1994年TOSV IgG的血清阳性率(7.2%;95%可信区间6.2 - 8.4)显著高于1999 - 2000年(5.7%;95%可信区间4.7 - 6.9)(卡方检验,p < 0.05)。在两个时期,患病率均随年龄显著增加。
这些结果证实,过去几年TOSV一直在马德里自治区传播。
