Rodents are hosts of a wide range of zoonotic disease pathogens which threaten human health. However, comprehensive investigations of rodent ecology and etiology in Shandong are lacking. Thus, we aimed to analyze rodent ecology and infection with relevant pathogens in Shandong Province, China.
Rodent survey data collected from 2012 to 2022 in Shandong Province were used in this study. Rodents captured from 2020 to 2022 were identified to species and tested for pathogens.
From 2012 to 2022, 4,145 rodents were captured, with an average capture rate of 0.70%. High capture rates were observed in rural residential areas and other habitats, such as farmland and forestland. () was the dominant species, followed by (). The regions with the highest capture rates of were Dongying (0.82%) and Heze (0.63%), while was more prevalent in Dongying (0.81%) and Weihai (0.56%). Rodent capture rates were highest between March and September. The positive detection rates of Hantavirus (HV), (), (), (), and () in rodents were 2.58%, 1.10%, 0.94%, 0.16%, and 0.19%, respectively.
The rodent capture rate in human habitation environments has trended downward in Shandong Province, with and being the dominant species. Rodent infection risk from HV, , and showed seasonal variation. Strengthening rodent surveillance and maintaining a low capture rate of host animals could be pivotal for preventing and controlling relevant rodent-borne diseases in high-risk areas.
啮齿动物是多种威胁人类健康的人畜共患病病原体的宿主。然而，山东省缺乏对啮齿动物生态学和病因学的全面调查。因此，我们旨在分析中国山东省啮齿动物的生态学及相关病原体感染情况。
本研究使用了2012年至2022年在山东省收集的啮齿动物调查数据。对2020年至2022年捕获的啮齿动物进行物种鉴定和病原体检测。
2012年至2022年，共捕获4145只啮齿动物，平均捕获率为0.70%。在农村居民区以及农田、林地等其他栖息地观察到较高的捕获率。（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）为优势种，其次是（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）。捕获率最高的地区，（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）方面是东营（0.82%）和菏泽（0.63%），而（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）在东营（0.81%）和威海（0.56%）更为普遍。啮齿动物捕获率在3月至9月最高。啮齿动物中汉坦病毒（HV）、（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）、（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）、（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）和（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）的阳性检出率分别为2.58%、1.10%、0.94%、0.16%和0.19%。
山东省人类居住环境中的啮齿动物捕获率呈下降趋势，（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）和（此处原文括号内容缺失具体物种名）为优势种。来自HV、（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）和（此处原文括号内容缺失具体病原体名）的啮齿动物感染风险呈现季节性变化。加强啮齿动物监测并保持宿主动物的低捕获率对于高风险地区预防和控制相关啮齿动物传播疾病可能至关重要。
