“…There were 20 haplotypes of the cox1 gene in this study, and 14 haplotypes were 100% similar to the reference sequence previously published in Genbank. Among them, Hap_1 was the most common haplotype of the G1 genotype, and the sequence of Hap_1 was the same as that of bovine isolates reported in Pakistan (6). The other 100% similar haplotypes were the same as the cattle and sheep sources reported in Algeria (26), the human sources reported in Kyrgyzstan (27), and the human sources in Qinghai Province (28) and Sichuan Province (29).…”

“…In China, seven provinces and autonomous regions, including Xinjiang, Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Tibet, and Sichuan, are seriously endemic areas of echinococcosis. The analysis of published data showed that the comprehensive prevalence rate of echinococcosis in sheep in China was 30.9% from 1983 to 2020 ( 5 ), and the comprehensive prevalence rate of echinococcosis in cattle in China was 17.3% from 2000 to 2020 ( 6 ). It is a major parasitosis that seriously endangers human health, public health safety, environmental safety, and the production and development of animal husbandry in western China ( 7 ).…”

Echinococcosis, also known as hydatid disease, is caused by the metacestode stage of the species cluster Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (E. granulosus s.l.). It is almost widespread worldwide, especially in countries and regions dominated by animal husbandry. It is a major parasitic disease that seriously endangers human health, public health safety, environmental safety, and the development of animal husbandry production in western China. In this study, the mitochondrial cox1 gene was used to analyze the genetic diversity and haplotype of bovine and sheep echinococcal cysts isolated in Tibet. Echinococcus granulosus sensu stricto (E. granulosus s.s., G1, G3) was still the dominant species in the infected samples of yak and sheep in some parts of Tibet. Through haplotype analysis, Hap_1 was deemed the dominant haplotype, 14 of the 20 haplotypes were similar to the reference sequence previously published in Genbank, and the rest of the 6 haplotypes were found for the first time. Through Tajima's D value, neutral test Fu's Fs analysis, and haplotype network map, it can be concluded that Echinococcus population expansion has occurred in Xigaze, Tibet. This study provides basic data for understanding the genetic characteristics, epidemiology, and control of echinococcosis in this area.

“…Higher prevalence was observed in cattle 15% when compared to buffalo 13% and highest prevalence of cyst was observed in buffalo lungs. Total prevalence of CE in livestock in China is 17.3%, Africa is 13.9%, Australia and other regions is 8.9% and Kazakistan is 7%, [11,[73][74][75]. Considering the neighboring countries, the prevalence is comparatively more in India and is serious.…”

“…The Indian sub-continent provides an ideal environment for CE to develop, propagate and spread in humans [8, 9] and livestock [10]. In recent past years, epidemiology of bovine CE in different countries in the world were reported by different researchers [11][12][13][14][15]. However, the prevalence of bovine CE in India has not been studied systematically and therefore, the prevalence status of the diseases is largely unknown at the country level.…”

Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) or hydatidosis is a zoonotic helminthic disease caused by the meta-cestode stage of a tapeworm belonging to the genus Echinococcus (family Taeniidae). CE is found in both human and animal populations throughout the world. Here we analysed the prevalence of CE in cattle and buffalo in India from 1980–2022 separately. Data mining was carried out from various databases such as Google scholar, PubMed, Scopus, Springer's, Science Direct, Krishikosh, Indianjournals.com, J-Gate@ Consortium of e-Resources in Agriculture (CeRA) under ICAR, symposia, research abstracts of conferences, seminars, and other published literatures ranging from 1980 to 2020. The meta-analysis was performed using the R package. Cochran’s test and statistics were used to assess the heterogeneity among the data. The results of the study were graphically represented by the forest plots. The total prevalence rate of CE in cattle and buffalo is estimated to be 15% in cattle and 13% in buffalo and the highest occurrence of cyst is observed in buffalo lungs. The prevalence is comparatively higher than the reports from neighboring countries. Even though, CE is an important infectious disease of livestock, there are only few reports on data analysis and epidemiological investigations conducted in cattle and buffalo. These data are critical for implementing better control and preventive measures. The prevalence rate necessitates public health education and awareness about the disease's dangers, as well as education on proper animal slaughtering techniques, prevention of feeding dogs with viscera from home-slaughtered animals, prevention of direct contact with dogs' faeces, enforcement of meat inspection legislation, improved veterinary services, and as well as treating, vaccination of dogs and domestic animals.

“…China is one of the countries that have a high prevalence of echinococcosis, particularly in the West, North, and Northwest parts, home to eight provincial-level administrative units with vast agricultural and pastoral lands (Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Yunnan, Xinjiang, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, and Tibet) (10).…”

The impact of echinococcosis interventions on economic outcomes in Qinghai Province of China: Evidence from county-level panel data

et al. 2023

IntroductionEchinococcosis can incur substantial economic losses for the livestock industry by causing organ condemnation, delayed growth, and reduced meat and wool output and quality in sheep and cattle, as well as increased surgery costs, hospital care, and decreased productivity in humans. Yet echinococcosis could be prevented and controlled by interventions, such as dog management and deworming, lamb vaccination, slaughter management, and training and public education.MethodsExploiting temporal and spatial variations in the number of intervention measures implemented in 39 counties in Qinghai province of China in 2015–2020, this study assesses the economic impact of echinococcosis interventions using a dynamic difference-in-differences model.ResultsThe results suggest that echinococcosis interventions brought about substantial economic gains measured by per capita net income of rural residents and per capita gross output of animal husbandry. These economic gains are greater in non-pastoral counties (with a gain in per capita net income of rural residents of 3,308 yuan and a gain per capita gross output of animal husbandry of 1,035 yuan) than in pastoral counties (with a gain in per capita net income of rural residents of 1,372 yuan and a gain per capita gross output of animal husbandry of 913 yuan). They are also greater in counties with echinococcosis infection level-2 (with a human infection rate of 0.1–1% or a dog infection rate of 1–5%) than infection level-1 counties (with a human prevalence rate ≥1% or a dog infection rate ≥5%).DiscussionNot only will these economic gains encourage livestock farmers to strengthen their echinococcosis prevention and control practices, but they will also inform public policy on zoonotic disease prevention and control in China and other countries alike.
