在一项前瞻性研究中，对1993年在挪威兽医学院进行尸检的250只狗的头骨进行了寄生虫的检查。所有头骨均被矢状劈开，并目视检查额窦和鼻腔。18只狗(7%)在尸检时有犬肺炎杆菌感染。未发现其他寄生虫。16只狗有重度或中度感染评分，其中60%有并发鼻窦炎。被感染的狗属于14个不同的品种，其中10只是雄性，8只是雌性，它们的年龄从4个月到10岁不等。受感染犬的品种分布、性别和年龄与总研究种群没有显著差异。这项研究表明，鼻部粉尘感染在挪威犬中很常见。
In a prospective study, the skulls of 250 dogs submitted for necropsy during 1993 at the Norwegian College of Veterinary Medicine were examined for the presence of parasites. All skulls were cleaved sagitally, and the frontal sinuses and nasal cavities were visually inspected. Eighteen dogs (7%) had Pneumonyssoides caninum infection at necropsy. No other parasites were observed. Sixteen dogs had heavy or moderate infection scores and 60% of these had concurrent sinusitis. The infected dogs belonged to 14 different breeds, 10 were male and eight were female, and they varied in age from four months to 10 years old. Breed distribution, sex and age of the infected dogs did not differ significantly from the total study population. This study indicates that nasal mite infection occurs commonly in Norwegian dogs.
