dc.description.abstract | Neospora caninum is regarded as one of the most important infectious causes of abortions in cattle worldwide,
yet the global economic impact of the infection has not been established. A systematic review of the
economic impact of N. caninum infections/abortions was conducted, searching PubMed with the terms
‘cattle’ and ‘Neospora’. This yielded 769 publications and the abstracts were screened for economically
relevant information (e.g. abortion prevalence and risk, serological prevalence). Further analysis was
restricted to countries with at least five relevant publications. In total, 99 studies (12.9%) from 10 countries
contained data from the beef industry (25 papers (25.3%)) and 72 papers (72.8%) from the dairy
industry (with the remaining two papers (2.0%) describing general abortion statistics). The total annual
cost of N. caninum infections/abortions was estimated to range from a median US $1.1 million in the New
Zealand beef industry to an estimated median total of US $546.3 million impact per annum in the US
dairy population. The estimate for the total median N. caninum-related losses exceeded US $1.298 billion
per annum, ranging as high as US $2.380 billion. Nearly two-thirds of the losses were incurred by the
dairy industry (US $842.9 million). Annual losses on individual dairy farms were estimated to reach a
median of US $1,600.00, while on beef farms these costs amounted to just US $150.00. Pregnant cows
and heifers were estimated to incur, on average, a loss due to N. caninum of less than US $20.00 for dairy
and less than US $5.00 for beef. These loss estimates, however, rose to US $110.00 and US $40.00,
respectively, for N. caninum-infected pregnant dairy and beef cows. This estimate of global losses due
to N. caninum, with the identification of clear target markets (countries, as well as cattle industries),
should provide an incentive to develop treatment options and/or vaccines. | pt_BR |
