The research addresses zoonotic sporotrichosis in Brazil, particularly caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis, highlighting its epidemiological severity. Transmission occurs through contact with sick animals, especially felines, and diagnosis in humans is challenging due to the low fungal load in the lesions. The study analyzed data from Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN) and Zoonosis Surveillance Unit (UVZ) from January 2017 to March 2023, carried out in Contagem, Minas Gerais. Geospatial tools and statistical analysis revealed a significant increase in cases, peaking in 2021 for felines and 2022 for humans. The geospatial analysis highlighted areas of higher incidence, suggesting a correlation between human and feline populations. The research contributes to the understanding of sporotrichosis in Contagem, emphasizing the importance of integrated approaches for surveillance and control strategies, aiming to mitigate impacts on the local community.
该研究关注巴西的人畜共患孢子丝菌病，尤其是由巴西孢子丝菌引起的，突出了其流行病学严重性。传播通过与患病动物接触发生，特别是猫科动物，而由于病变中真菌载量低，人类的诊断具有挑战性。该研究分析了2017年1月至2023年3月在米纳斯吉拉斯州孔塔任进行的法定传染病信息系统（SINAN）和人畜共患病监测单位（UVZ）的数据。地理空间工具和统计分析显示病例显著增加，猫科动物病例在2021年达到峰值，人类病例在2022年达到峰值。地理空间分析突出了发病率较高的地区，表明人类和猫科动物种群之间存在相关性。该研究有助于了解孔塔任的孢子丝菌病，强调综合方法对监测和控制策略的重要性，旨在减轻对当地社区的影响。
