Resumen/Descripción – provisto por el repositorio digital
The objectives in this study were: To develop Enzyme Immunoassays for Canine Leptospirosis Diagnosis; To validate the ELISAs and the TR through MAT and the presence or absence of clinical signs; To know the presumably infectious serotypes; To assess different epidemiological variables. ELISAs Extractive and P1 performed better and showed significantly better AUC (0.868 and 0.902) than ELISAs with P2 an Rec. From these results it is concluded that they can be suitable as an additional test to MAT for canine leptospirosis diagnosis. The low sensitivity (70.6%) and specificity (16.7%) seem to suggest it cannot be used as the only screening. In the risk factor analysis, males proved to be more likely to catch leptospirosis (OR= 4.07). The more frequent presumably infectious serogroups were Icterohaemorragiae and Canicola. Of all confirmed cases, 20% has a vaccination history and the more frequent clinical signs were bloodshot eyes and Renal Syndrome. Results for the development and validation of canine leptospirosis diagnosis methods and clinical-epidemiological findings can serve as antecedents, add to the knowledge of leptospirosis and contribute to the implementation of appropriate control and prevention measures.
