Leptospirosis is one of the most common zoonotic infections worldwide, including in most livestock, some companion animals, horses, wildlife, and humans. Epidemiological estimation of its prevalence in all species is difficult due to the variety of clinical presentations and challenges regarding laboratory diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to measure the seroprevalence of leptospiral infection in Arabian horses kept in the largest breeding farms in Poland, representing over 15% of the Polish Arabian horse population. antibodies were detected by MAT (cut-off 1:100) in 33.2% of serum samples (204 of 615 animals) (CI 95%: 29.6-37.0%), most frequently reacting with the serovar Grippotyphosa, similar to previous reports in populations of randomly selected horses. These results indicated high seropositivity, thus, although any form of clinical leptospirosis is rare, it may be postulated that the leptospiral exposure is widespread.
钩端螺旋体病是全球最常见的人畜共患感染之一，在大多数家畜、一些伴侣动物、马、野生动物和人类中均有发生。由于临床表现多样以及实验室诊断面临挑战，很难对所有物种中该病的流行情况进行流行病学估计。本研究的目的是测定波兰最大繁育场中阿拉伯马的钩端螺旋体感染血清阳性率，这些繁育场的马匹占波兰阿拉伯马种群的15%以上。通过显微凝集试验（MAT，临界值1:100）在33.2%的血清样本（615只动物中的204只）中检测到抗体（95%置信区间：29.6-37.0%），最常与波摩那血清型发生反应，这与之前对随机选择的马群的报道相似。这些结果表明血清阳性率很高，因此，尽管任何形式的临床钩端螺旋体病都很罕见，但可以推测钩端螺旋体暴露很普遍。
