Cross-sectional study was carried out to determine the prevalence and estimate financial losses associated with zoonotic metacestodes in cattle originated from Borana Pastoral Farming System and slaughtered at Yabello Municipal Abattoir, Ethiopia. A total of 384 cattle were randomly selected at the abattoir. Detailed postmortem examination, cyst count and fertile test were conducted. Significantly higher prevalence of () (33.3%) with 5.3 times (OR 95% 3.5-8.1) than (8.6%) was observed. Significant difference ( < 0.05) in prevalence of both and were observed among the animal body condition, but not in other factors of the study. From total examined animals, 32.8%, 8.1% and 0.5% were infected by only, only and both as concurrent infections, respectively. Significantly higher (p < 0.05) than were observed within studied categories of risk factors. Tissue level cyst prevalence of 83.1% CE and 26.6% were observed. High counts on the lungs (42.7%), liver (32.8%) and kidney (5.2%) but high count in triceps muscle and masseter muscles (7.3% each) and heart (3.64%) were observed. Concurrent infections were observed in heart and liver. Out of the 347 counted cysts, fertile and viable were 34.0% and 23.1%, respectively. Of the counted , 30.4% were both fertile and viable. A total of 301,139.6ETB (11,155.52USD) annual financial losses were calculated during the study period. The Borana Pastoral Farming System characterized by seasonal animal movement needs awareness creation on the elders and leaders regarding parasitic epidemiology and control strategies.
开展横断面研究以确定源自博拉纳游牧养殖系统并在埃塞俄比亚亚贝洛市屠宰场屠宰的牛中与人畜共患绦虫蚴相关的流行率并估计经济损失。在屠宰场随机选取了384头牛。进行了详细的尸检、囊肿计数和受精试验。观察到（）的流行率显著更高（33.3%），是（8.6%）的5.3倍（OR 95% 3.5 - 8.1）。在动物身体状况方面，观察到（）和（）的流行率存在显著差异（p < 0.05），但在研究的其他因素中未观察到。在所有检查的动物中，仅感染（）、仅感染（）和同时感染这两种寄生虫的比例分别为32.8%、8.1%和0.5%。在研究的风险因素类别中，观察到（）的比例显著高于（）（p < 0.05）。观察到组织层面的囊尾蚴流行率为83.1%的细粒棘球绦虫和26.6%的多房棘球绦虫。在肺部（42.7%）、肝脏（32.8%）和肾脏（5.2%）观察到高囊肿计数，但在肱三头肌和咬肌（各7.3%）以及心脏（3.64%）观察到高（）计数。在心脏和肝脏中观察到同时感染。在347个计数的（）囊肿中，可育和存活的分别为34.0%和23.1%。在计数的（）中，30.4%既是可育的又是存活的。在研究期间计算出年度经济损失总计301,139.6埃塞俄比亚比尔（11,155.52美元）。以季节性动物迁徙为特征的博拉纳游牧养殖系统需要对年长者和领导者开展关于寄生虫流行病学和控制策略的宣传。
