Since the first documented case of in Spain in 2001, this myiasis has experienced rapid expansion, with the first case also detected in 2021 in Portugal. Between January 2020 and October 2024, a study was carried out in northern Spain (Cantabria, Galicia, País Vasco and Principado de Asturias) and Portugal (Bragança, Viana do Castelo and Vila Real) to evaluate the presence and distribution of this myiasis in these areas. The prevalence of infestation was 76.6 ± 4.72% (95% CI) and 38.78 ± 13.78% (95% CI), with a mean intensity of 62.27 ± 104.40 and 37.74 ± 36.84 larvae per animal in Spain and Portugal, respectively. Regarding age, larval intensity was significantly higher in young animals (109.76 ± 148.59) than in adults (32.22 ± 39.01) and old animals (33.64 ± 34.21) ( < 0.05). These results reflect a large increase in the prevalence and importance of younger animals in the spread of the disease. Therefore, it is very important to control and manage populations, focusing on the youngest animals.
自2001年西班牙首次记录到这种蝇蛆病病例以来,该病迅速蔓延,2021年在葡萄牙也首次发现了病例。2020年1月至2024年10月期间,在西班牙北部(坎塔布里亚、加利西亚、巴斯克地区和阿斯图里亚斯公国)和葡萄牙(布拉干萨、维亚纳堡和维拉雷亚尔)开展了一项研究,以评估这些地区这种蝇蛆病的存在情况和分布。西班牙的感染率为76.6±4.72%(95%置信区间),葡萄牙为38.78±13.78%(95%置信区间),西班牙每只动物的幼虫平均感染强度为62.27±104.40条,葡萄牙为37.74±36.84条。在年龄方面,幼龄动物的幼虫感染强度(109.76±148.59)显著高于成年动物(32.22±39.01)和老龄动物(33.64±34.21)(P<0.05)。这些结果反映出幼龄动物在疾病传播中的感染率和重要性大幅上升。因此,控制和管理动物种群,重点关注最年幼的动物非常重要。
