A cross-sectional study of infection in pigs was carried out in backyard farms in three townships, within Nay Pyi Taw area from June 2014 to August 2014. Blood samples were randomly collected from 256 pigs in 129 farms. Using commercial Latex Agglutination Test kits, specific antibodies to were analyzed. Based on LAT results, among 256 serum samples examined, 47 samples (18.4%) were found positive to The numbers of samples showing specific antibody titres from 47 positive pig sera were 20 at 1:64, 2 samples at 1:128, 9 samples at 1:256, 3 samples at 1:512 and 13 samples at 1:1024. Among the hypothesized risk factors, roaming of cats around the farm was found associated to seropositivity in pigs (OR = 3.13; 95% CI = 1.33-7.34). This study provides information on seroepidemiology study of in backyard pigs for the first time in Myanmar. This information will be useful in developing strategies for the control of infection in pigs.
2014年6月至2014年8月，在内比都地区三个乡镇的后院农场对猪感染情况进行了一项横断面研究。从129个农场的256头猪中随机采集血样。使用商用乳胶凝集试验试剂盒分析针对[具体病原体未明确]的特异性抗体。根据乳胶凝集试验结果，在检测的256份血清样本中，有47份样本（18.4%）被发现对[具体病原体未明确]呈阳性。47份阳性猪血清中显示特异性抗体滴度的样本数量分别为：1:64时20份、1:128时2份、1:256时9份、1:512时3份以及1:1024时13份。在假设的风险因素中，发现农场周围有猫活动与猪的[具体病原体未明确]血清阳性有关（比值比=3.13；95%置信区间=1.33 - 7.34）。本研究首次提供了缅甸后院猪中[具体病原体未明确]血清流行病学研究信息。这些信息将有助于制定控制猪[具体病原体未明确]感染的策略。
