INTRODUCTION
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is an important parasitic disease. We evaluated the epidemiological aspects and spatial distribution of visceral leishmaniasis in Governador Valadares, Brazil.
METHODS
All cases of VL, registered by the municipal health department, were analyzed and georeferenced.
RESULTS
The human mortality rate was 15% and canine seroprevalence rate was 29.0%. Higher numbers of canine VL cases correlated with higher incidence of human cases.
CONCLUSIONS
The high rate of canine seroprevalence, resurgence of the human disease, and correlation between canine and human VL reinforces the role of the dog in disease transmission within the municipality.
引言
内脏利什曼病（VL）是一种重要的寄生虫病。我们评估了巴西瓦拉达里斯州政府所在地内脏利什曼病的流行病学特征和空间分布。
方法
对市卫生局登记的所有内脏利什曼病病例进行分析和地理定位。
结果
人类死亡率为 15%，犬血清阳性率为 29.0%。更多的犬内脏利什曼病病例与更高的人类病例发病率相关。
结论
高犬血清阳性率、人类疾病的再次流行以及犬和人类内脏利什曼病之间的相关性，强化了狗在该市疾病传播中的作用。
