“…79.8% (Shiokawa et al, 2019). In dairy farms on the coast and mountains of Peru with drier climates, a low prevalence between 14.8% and 12.3% is identified, showing a difference between territories in the tropics (Llanco et al, 2017). In the Brazilian Amazon, a 46.6% seroprevalence of Leptospira spp.…”

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease in the tropical zone with a broad and endemic distribution. The condition is complex, where different host factors, serovar type, reservoirs, environment, and agricultural practices intervene. In cattle, the disease causes significant damage to the livestock sector, and the surrounding conditions can influence its dynamics. This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of anti-Leptospira spp. antibodies and the risk factors in cattle in the tropical savannah from eastern Colombia. Blood was taken from the coccygeal veins of 1,000 animals. The MAT (Microagglutination) technique was used for the identification of the serogroup Autumnalis, Bataviae, Bratislava, Canicola, Copenhagen, Cynopteri, Grippotyphosa, Sejroe, Mini, Pomona, Shermani, Tarassovi, and Celledoni. Studies of risk factors were carried out according to the serovar through the calculation of X2 and OR. Seroprevalence of Leptospira spp. was 34.2% with 92.3% of herds. Pomona had the highest frequency of 7.9%, followed by Hardjo prajit with 7.0% and Grippotyphosa with 6.2%. Antibody agglutination with more than one serovar was seen in 102 (29.8%) samples. The serogroup with the highest correlations were Pomona and Hardjo prajit.

“…The findings are considered due to the risk of animal infection by Leptospira spp. associated with environmental factors such as rainfall and adverse climate, management factors, and farming systems such as cobreeding with other productive species or the presence of domestic animals (canines) and wild animals (rodents) in the herd [ 35 ].…”

The productivity of cattle farms is affected by infectious and noninfectious factors that generate economic losses and cause reproductive failure represented by low conception rates, embryonic mortality, abortions, and fetal mummification. The infectious agents that most impact the reproductive health of the bovine species from conception to birth are bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1) causing infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), bovine parainfluenza virus type 3 (PI3), Neospora caninum and Leptospira spp. The objective of this study was to diagnose the presence of BoHV-1, bovine viral diarrhea (BVD), PI3, Neospora caninum, and Leptospira spp. by serology and identify the risk factors associated with infectious agents of reproductive interest in bovines of Boyacá (Colombia). A descriptive cross-sectional study was developed, with simple random sampling, where a sample size of 601 female cattle of Holstein, Jersey, and Normande breeds of different age groups was determined. Blood samples were taken and processed using the indirect ELISA technique (SYNBIOTICS®, SERELISA® BVD p80 Ab Mono Blocking, Ingezim R.12.NC.K, PRIMACHECK VPI-3®) and the MAT test for the diagnosis of bovine leptospirosis. The data were processed with the statistical program Epi Info™. The highest apparent seroprevalence was established for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (61.1%), followed by BVD (37.6%), PI3 (40.9%), neosporosis (51.1%), and leptospirosis (14.8%). Variables such as age >4 years and Holstein breed for IBR and >4 years for BVD were established risk factors. Considering our results, we suggest implementing prevention and control plans that include vaccination as a prophylactic measure and biosecurity tools that reduce the probability of contagion and transmission of pathogens.

“…La IF-IgM aparece como una herramienta útil para el diagnóstico temprano (etapa aguda, menos de diez días tras el inicio de los síntomas) de pacientes con leptospirosis, sobre todo en aquellos con primera prueba de MAT negativa. Esta prueba se puede realizar con infraestructura básica de laboratorio, que cuente con microscopio de luz ultravioleta, láminas sensibilizadas que se pueden conservar hasta tres meses y el resultado está listo en tres a cuatro horas (44).…”

La presente revisión tuvo como objetivo de identificar la importancia de la leptospirosis en la salud pública a través de un análisis de literatura en bases de datos a partir del año 2004 al 2019 para realizar un aporte teórico a este importante tema. Se dio a conocer las características de la bacteria Leptospira spp. y sus principales reservorios, la epidemiología y las prevalencias de la enfermedad, ubicaciones geográficas, las herramientas diagnósticas y el control y prevención de la leptospirosis. Se identificó cuantiosa información en cuanto a generalidades de leptospirosis y sobre el curso de la enfermedad, se denota la ausencia de información en varios sectores sociales para evitar su contagio, controlar la diseminación de la enfermedad, realizar diagnósticos tempranos y los pocos tratamientos para esta zoonosis.
