“…The complex life cycle of Spirometra parasites gives them the opportunity to be acquired not only via consumption of raw wild animal products (e.g. snakes and frogs infected with plerocercoids), but It has been documented that the consumption of wild meat (bushmeat) has a direct relationship with poverty and low-income communities, where is a lack of sanitary drinking water sources, sanitation and hygiene Kouassi et al, 2019;Maleki et al, 2020;Prüss-Ustün et al, 2014;Van Velden et al, 2020). Also, water hygienic interventions in low-and low-middle-income settings, which place less emphasis on limiting animal faeces exposure in water sources, help to maintain parasitic remains and provide the water-borne cycle (Delahoy et al, 2018).…”

Background: Spirometra infection is aneglected food-and waterborne disease with worldwide distribution.Objectives: The present study aims to estimate the global prevalence of Spirometra species in snakes, frogs, dogs and cats. Methods: Multiple databases (PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, Web of Science and Google Scholar) were searched for relevant literatures published up to March 2022.Results: Among 131 data sets (including 113 articles) that met the inclusion, 15 investigations reported Spirometra infection in snakes, 23 in frogs, 41 in dogs and 52 in cats.The pooled prevalence (95% confidence interval) in intermediate hosts and definitive hosts was found to be 0.313% and 0.089%, respectively. Based on continent, the infection was most prevalent in Asia for studies on snakes (0.696%) and frogs (0.181%), while Africa (0.224%) and Oceania (0.203%) were the regions with the highest pooled prevalence rates of the infection in dogs and cats, respectively. Among different diagnostic methods, the highest pooled prevalence was related to morphological method for studies on snakes, frog and cats with rate of 0.665%, 0.189% and 0.104%, respectively. Regarding studies on dogs, the highest pooled prevalence was observed for molecular technique (0.101%). Conclusions:The results presented here revealed the importance of establishing a prevention and control measure focused on protection of aquaculture systems from being contaminated with faeces of dogs and cats, and raising awareness of parasitic zoonotic diseases to decrease the transmission risk.

“…Omnivores and carnivores with predator, scavenger, and cannibalistic habits are the main reservoirs for Trichinella spp. (Feidas et al., 2014 ; Maleki et al., 2020 ). All of the 13 taxa (nine species and four genotypes) of the parasite are pathogenic for humans (Gómez‐Morales et al., 2018 ; Mukaratirwa et al., 2013 ; Sharma et al., 2020 ).…”

Background: Investigating the global epidemiological patterns of Trichinella in pigs is required for accurate recognition and to establishing proper control programmes and preventive measures, as well as to decrease human exposure. Objectives: To obtain a better understanding of the global prevalence of Trichinella in domestic pigs and factors that might influence the prevalence, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed. Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed. Multiple databases were used to identify literature published between January 2000 and December 2021, representing studies from 1985 to 2021, on Trichinella prevalence in domestic pigs. Prevalence was calculated on a global and country level, by country Human Development Index (HDI), climate, pig management system, and diagnostic test. Results:The global pooled prevalence based on 60 manuscripts representing 32 countries and 65 pig populations was 2.02% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.88-3.62) and the estimated pooled prevalence in different continents ranged from 0.00% to 11.8%.Trichinella was highest in low HDI countries (21.6%; 95% CI: 4.3-47.2), tropical wet Aida Vafae Eslahi and Meysam Olfatifar contributed equally to this study.
