“…This is also true for epidemiological studies, which focus mainly on pathogens surveys (i.e. Filoni et al 2006;Fiorello et al 2007;Metzger et al 2008;Jorge et al 2010;Widmer et al 2011).…”

“…A presença de anemia, provavelmente não é decorrente da infecção pelo protozoário, visto que na espécie L. pardalis no Brasil, não há evidências de qualquer sinal clínico de hepatozoonose (Metzger et al, 2008;Mercer et al, 1988). A concentração sérica da ureia sofre influências de vários fatores, dentre eles dieta rica em proteínas e desidratação, desta forma, animais carnívoros estão susceptíveis a sofrerem aumento da concentração sérica da ureia (Thrall et al, 2004).…”

“…Embora ainda não haja estudos sobre a prevalência de Hepatozoon spp. pela técnica de esfregaço sanguíneo em L. pardalis, Metzger et al (2008), utilizando o diagnóstico molecular da Reação em Cadeia de Polimerase, identificaram em L. pardalis 36,36% de positividade do agente.…”

“…This can be seen in relation to the studies by in Sao Paulo, Paludo et al (2005) in Brasilia, Lasta et al (2009) in Rio Grande do Sul, and Spolidorio et al (2009) in Espírito Santo, using samples obtained from dogs. Other studies have also been developed using samples from cats and the only species identified was still H. canis (Metzer et al, 2008).…”

“…Today, more than 300 species of the genus Hepatozoon have been identified in different vertebrates, including amphibians, reptiles, marsupials, birds and mammals, and these can be transmitted by different vectors, including ticks, lice, mosquitoes, sand flies, tsetse flies, flea mites and triatomines (Metzer et al, 2008). Two species are recognized as causing disease in dogs: Hepatozoon canis and Hepatozoon americanum.…”
