We evaluated West Nile virus (WNV) seroprevalence in dogs and cats in Shanghai, China. Seventeen of the 367 dogs (4.6%) and 46 of the 309 cats (14.9%) tested positive for WNV antibodies. A higher WNV seroprevalence was found with outdoor and rural pets than with indoor and urban pets. However, WNV seroprevalence between the sexes were not significantly different. The results indicate that WNV-positive serum antibodies are present in dogs and cats in China, and pets, especially strays, could be served as effective sentinels for WNV surveillance.
我们评估了中国上海的犬猫中西尼罗河病毒（WNV）的血清流行率。在 367 只狗中，有 17 只（4.6%）和 309 只猫中 46 只（14.9%）检测到WNV 抗体呈阳性。户外和农村的宠物比室内和城市的宠物WNV 血清阳性率更高。然而，性别之间的 WNV 血清阳性率没有显著差异。结果表明，中国的犬猫中存在WNV 阳性血清抗体，宠物，特别是流浪动物，可以作为 WNV 监测的有效哨兵。
