  • Title: [Current epidemiology of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Republic of Uzbekistan].
    Author: Tashbaev NS, Mustafaev KhM.
    Journal: Med Parazitol (Mosk); 2010; (4):34-6. PubMed ID: 21395042.
    Abstract:
    It has been established that the Republic of Uzbekistan is divided into two strata by the epidemic risk for zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL). The distribution of ZCL endemicity in Urbekistan coincides with that of great gerbils (Rhombomys opimus), the main natural reservoir of leishmaniasis pathogens. In the past 34 years, there have been 8 epidemiological rises in the incidence of ZCL, which are associated with a large number of great gerbils and Ph. papatasis mosquitoes providing the epidemiological process.
