Food Waterborne Parasitol. 2024 Aug 25;36:e00242. doi: 10.1016/j.fawpar.2024.e00242. eCollection 2024 Sep.
spp. is a common intestinal parasite found in humans and various animals, including marine species like fish, bivalves, and sponges. While traditionally considered non-pathogenic, emerging evidence suggests potential foodborne concerns, especially for vulnerable populations. The present systematic review and meta-analysis reviewed four electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science) until June 13, 2024, for studies reporting the prevalence and subtypes (STs) distribution of spp. in marine animals, including fish, bivalves, and sponges, to assess foodborne concern and zoonotic importance. In the analysis of 11 studies involving 1329 marine animals from nine countries, five studies/datasets (742 samples) focused on fish, five studies/datasets (567 samples) on bivalves, and one (20 samples) on sponges. This review found that 12.4 % (95 % CI: 4.3-31 %) of marine animals globally were infected by spp., with bivalves showing the highest infection rate at 32 % (95 % CI: 13-59.7 %), exceeding sponges with a single study at 10 % (95 % CI: 2.5-32.4 %), and fish at 4.4 % (95 % CI: 2-9.3 %). Sensitivity analysis assessed changes in weighted prevalence after excluding certain studies. A subgroup analysis of spp. prevalence was conducted based on publication years, countries, continents, WHO regions, and sample sizes. The data collected indicated that marine animals serve as suitable reservoirs for various spp. STs (ST1-ST4, ST7, ST8, ST10, ST14, ST23, ST26, and ST44), with most (except for ST26 and ST44) having the potential for zoonotic transmission. Overall, the findings emphasize the potential for foodborne risk posed by spp. in marine animals and highlight the need for improved monitoring and control measures to ensure food safety.
某物种是一种常见的肠道寄生虫，存在于人类和各种动物体内，包括鱼类、双壳贝类和海绵等海洋物种。虽然传统上认为它无致病性，但新出现的证据表明存在潜在的食源性问题，尤其是对弱势群体而言。本系统综述和荟萃分析检索了四个电子数据库（PubMed、Scopus、谷歌学术和科学网），截至2024年6月13日，查找报告某物种在包括鱼类、双壳贝类和海绵在内的海洋动物中的流行率和亚型（STs）分布的研究，以评估食源性问题和人畜共患病的重要性。在对来自九个国家的1329只海洋动物的11项研究进行分析时，五项研究/数据集（742个样本）聚焦于鱼类，五项研究/数据集（567个样本）聚焦于双壳贝类，一项（20个样本）聚焦于海绵。本综述发现，全球12.4%（95%置信区间：4.3 - 31%）的海洋动物感染了某物种，其中双壳贝类的感染率最高，为32%（95%置信区间：13 - 59.7%），超过了在一项研究中感染率为10%（95%置信区间：2.5 - 32.4%）的海绵，以及感染率为4.4%（95%置信区间：2 - 9.3%）的鱼类。敏感性分析评估了排除某些研究后加权流行率的变化。基于发表年份、国家、大陆、世卫组织区域和样本量对某物种的流行率进行了亚组分析。收集的数据表明，海洋动物是各种某物种STs（ST1 - ST4、ST7、ST8、ST10、ST14、ST23、ST26和ST44）的合适宿主，其中大多数（除ST26和ST44外）具有人畜共患病传播的潜力。总体而言，研究结果强调了某物种在海洋动物中造成食源性风险的可能性，并突出了加强监测和控制措施以确保食品安全的必要性。
