兽医和兽医技术人员面临职业性布鲁氏菌病的风险。我们描述了土耳其兽医人员职业性布鲁氏菌病的危险因素。在积极从事该领域工作的兽医人员中进行了一项多中心回顾性调查。在712名兽医人员中，84人（11.8%）患有职业性布鲁氏菌病。职业性布鲁氏菌病组毕业后的中位年数为7（四分位距[IQR]，4-11）年，而非布鲁氏菌病组为9（IQR，4-16）年（p < 0.001）。在多变量分析中，在私营部门工作（比值比[OR]，2.8; 95%置信区间[95% CI]，1.55-5.28，p = 0.001），男性（OR，4.5; 95% CI，1.05-18.84，p = 0.041），分娩次数（OR，1.01; 95%CI，1.002-1.02，p = 0.014）和接种布鲁氏菌疫苗期间的损伤（OR，5.4; 95%CI，3.16-9.3，p < 0.001）被发现是职业性布鲁氏菌病的危险因素。我们建议所有兽医人员都应接受布鲁氏菌病和使用个人防护设备的重要性的培训，以避免这种感染。(C)2014爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Veterinarians and veterinary technicians are at risk for occupational brucellosis. We described the risk factors of occupational brucellosis among veterinary personnel in Turkey. A multicenter retrospective survey was performed among veterinary personnel who were actively working in the field. Of 712 veterinary personnel, 84(11.8%) had occupational brucellosis. The median number of years since graduation was 7 (interquartile ranges [IQR], 4-11) years in the occupational brucellosis group, whereas this number was 9 (IQR, 4-16) years in the non-brucellosis group (p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, working in the private sector (odds ratio [OR], 2.8; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.55-5.28, p = 0.001), being male (OR, 4.5; 95% CI, 1.05-18.84, p = 0.041), number of performed deliveries (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.002-1.02, p = 0.014), and injury during Brucella vaccine administration (OR, 5.4; 95% CI, 3.16-9.3, p < 0.001) were found to be risk factors for occupational brucellosis. We suggest that all veterinary personnel should be trained on brucellosis and the importance of using personal protective equipment in order to avoid this infection. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
