本研究旨在调查隐孢子虫的发生情况。在希腊的黑山羊孩子和与隐孢子虫病相关的危险因素。对来自希腊北方54个奶山羊群的292只4-15日龄的寒羊幼山羊进行了检测。隐孢子虫卵囊292只山羊中有223只（76.4%）检出了HSP 70，感染强度为“高”的142只，“中”的45只，“低”的36只。较大的畜群（>200头动物）比较小的畜群有更高的感染率，尽管这种差异在统计学上并不显著。与早期（9月1日至12月31日）相比，在开玩笑季节后期（1月1日至4月30日）观察到牛群中的感染率显著较高。这些结果表明，隐孢子虫病是非常常见的，在希腊的希氏山羊的孩子，特别是在大群在分娩季节后期。
This study aimed at investigating the occurrence of Cryptosporidium spp. in diarrheic goat kids in Greece and the risk factors associated with cryptosporidiosis. Altogether, 292 diarrheic 4-15-day-old goat kids from 54 dairy goat herds of Northern Greece were examined. Oocysts of Cryptosporidium spp. were detected in 223 of 292 (76.4%) goat kids and the intensity of infection was scored as "high" in 142 samples, "moderate" in 45 samples, and "low" in 36 samples. Larger herds (>200 animals) had higher infection rates than smaller ones, although this difference was not statistically significant. Significantly higher infection rates were observed in herds during late kidding season (1 January to 30 April) compared to the early one (1 September to 31 December). These results suggest that cryptosporidiosis is very common in diarrheic goat kids in Greece, especially in large herds during the late parturition season.
