Toxocariasis is a neglected parasitic zoonosis. Although some studies have reported the Toxocara prevalence in dogs and cats in mainland China, there is a lack of comprehensive analysis of these data. Here, we conducted the first systematic review based on relevant literatures published in Web of Science, PubMed and CNKI from January 2000 to July 2019 to assess the prevalence of Toxocara infection in dogs and cats in mainland China. A total of 68 eligible papers were retrieved, including 24,490 dogs and 844 cats, with 17.34% (4246/24,490) Toxocara canis prevalence in dogs and 22.04% (186/844) Toxocara cati prevalence in cats by faecal floatation method. The prevalence and risk factors of T. canis and T. cati infection in different geographical regions, years, breeds, ages and genders were estimated in this review. This review indicates that there was high prevalence of Toxocara infection in dogs and cats in China. This finding calls for measures to reduce the potential risk of Toxocara infection and toxocariasis in humans and animals.
弓形虫病是一种被忽视的寄生虫性人畜共患病。虽然一些研究报告了中国大陆地区犬猫的弓形虫流行情况,但缺乏对这些数据的综合分析。在这里,我们基于 2000 年 1 月至 2019 年 7 月在 Web of Science、PubMed 和中国知网(CNKI)上发表的相关文献,进行了首次系统综述,以评估中国大陆地区犬猫的弓形虫感染流行率。共检索到 68 篇合格论文,包括 24490 只犬和 844 只猫,粪便漂浮法检测犬的犬弓首蛔虫感染率为 17.34%(4246/24490),猫的猫弓首蛔虫感染率为 22.04%(186/844)。本综述估计了不同地理区域、年份、品种、年龄和性别中犬和猫的 T. canis 和 T. cati 感染的流行率和风险因素。本综述表明,中国犬猫弓形虫感染率较高。这一发现呼吁采取措施降低人和动物弓形虫感染和弓蛔虫病的潜在风险。
