施马伦贝格病研究进展

The Research Progress of Schmallenberg Disease

施马伦贝格病是自2011年夏季以来在欧洲新发的一种虫媒性病毒病,其病原为施马伦贝格病毒,主要感染绵羊、牛和山羊等反刍动物,可导致成年家畜生产性能下降,怀孕母畜发生流产、产死胎或畸形胎儿。截至目前,中国尚未出现相关疫情。笔者将从病原学、流行病学、临床症状、发病机制与病理变化、检疫与诊断、预警与防控等方面对取得的最新研究进展进行概述,以期增强人们对该病的认识,并为中国有关部门采取恰当的防控措施提供科学依据。

Schmallenberg disease is a newly emerged arboviral disease in Europe since the summer of 2011.The causative agent of the disease is Schmallenberg virus(SBV)which primarily infects ruminants such as sheep,cattle and goats.The virus can cause declines in the production performance of adult animals,and lead to abortions in pregnant animals and severe fetal malformations or stillbirths.To date,there has been no report of SBV infection in China.In order to enhance the awareness of the disease and to provide the related departments of our country with scientific bases for the prevention and control of this disease,the latest research progress in the aspects of etiology,epidemiology,clinical symptoms,pathogenesis and pathologic changes,quarantine and diagnosis,early warning,prevention and control of the disease will be summarized in this review.
