Sarcocystosis is an intracellular parasitic disease caused by spp. that has a worldwide prevalence. Symptoms of the disease include diarrhea and muscle pain. The disease poses a threat to the health of animals. The aim of this review is to investigate the global prevalence of infection in sheep and goats during 2013-2022. We searched five databases: Web of Science, Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. A total of 36 articles containing 44 datasets met the criteria and were included in the study. The total infection rates of in sheep and goats were 66.3% (95% CI, 51.79-79.38%) and 52.1% (95% CI, 29.45-74.23%), respectively. It was found that species tend to have a host species preference. Coinfection of and often occurred in sheep, and goats were frequently infected with . Age and sex were identified as risk factors for infection in sheep and goats. The infection rates of female and male animals were significantly different, with females having a higher infection rate. Age-adjusted analysis showed that infection rates in animals older than one year were higher than in animals younger than one year. This study unveiled the global distribution of and sheds light on its transmission in sheep and goats.
肉孢子虫病是一种由肉孢子虫属物种引起的细胞内寄生虫病，在全球范围内流行。该病症状包括腹泻和肌肉疼痛。这种疾病对动物健康构成威胁。本综述的目的是调查2013年至2022年期间绵羊和山羊感染肉孢子虫的全球流行情况。我们检索了五个数据库：科学网、科学Direct、PubMed、Scopus和谷歌学术。共有36篇文章包含44个数据集符合标准并纳入本研究。绵羊和山羊的肉孢子虫总感染率分别为66.3%（95%置信区间，51.79 - 79.38%）和52.1%（95%置信区间，29.45 - 74.23%）。研究发现，肉孢子虫物种往往具有宿主物种偏好。绵羊中常出现肉孢子虫和其他寄生虫的混合感染，而山羊经常感染某种特定肉孢子虫。年龄和性别被确定为绵羊和山羊感染肉孢子虫的风险因素。雌性和雄性动物的感染率存在显著差异，雌性感染率更高。年龄调整分析表明，一岁以上动物的感染率高于一岁以下动物。本研究揭示了肉孢子虫的全球分布情况，并阐明了其在绵羊和山羊中的传播方式。
