However, studies assessing the risk of human infection in such areas are lacking to date, while they may provide information about key specific preventive actions which could be advised to the human populations living with or close to cattle. Therefore, we conducted a cross\u2010sectional study in two departments of Western France during the 2017\/18 winter in order to explore possible risk factors for seropositivity among two distinct populations, i) an occupational risk group, that is, the cattle farmers, and ii) the general adult population (approached by blood donors). Sera were collected in 176 cattle farmers and 347 blood donors respectively, and tested for phase I and II antibodies using an indirect immunofluorescence antibody assay. Each participant was asked to fill in a questionnaire containing socio\u2010demographic characteristics, occupational and non\u2010occupational risk exposure. Identified risk factors were: in the general population, working in contact with ruminants, comparatively to any other activity (OR\u00a0=\u00a04.41; 95% CI: [1.59\u20136.55]); among farmers, managing an itself infected cattle herd (OR\u00a0=\u00a03.20; 95% CI: [1.59\u20136.55]). No other controllable risk factor (lifestyle, outdoor activities, proximity to pets and livestock animals, occupational practices) was here evidenced. In areas with endemically infected cattle, human exposure to <jats:italic>Coxiella burnetii<\/jats:italic> is to some extent unavoidable. This strengthens the need for physicians' awareness of the symptoms of Q fever and the appropriateness of general biosecurity measures, especially among at\u2010risk groups living there.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/zph.12803","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,15]],"date-time":"2021-01-15T06:09:02Z","timestamp":1610690942000},"page":"144-152","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Risk of seropositivity to <i>Coxiella burnetii<\/i> in humans living in areas with endemically infected cattle: No way for specific prevention"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"68","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2497-8578","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francois","family":"Beaudeau","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"INRAE Oniris BIOEPAR Nantes France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marie","family":"Pouquet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INRAE Oniris BIOEPAR Nantes France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rapha\u00ebl","family":"Guatteo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INRAE Oniris BIOEPAR Nantes France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nathalie","family":"Bareille","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INRAE Oniris BIOEPAR Nantes France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Le\u00efla","family":"Moret","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UMR 1246 INSERM SPHERE \"MethodS in Patients\u2010centered outcomes and HEalth ResEarch\" Universities of Nantes and Tours Nantes France"},{"name":"Department of Public Health Nantes University Hospital Nantes France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1051\/vetres:2005010"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1574-695X.2011.00876.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2807\/ese.18.08.20407-en"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vaccine.2009.02.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/dyw040"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","volume-title":"Rapport: Fi\u00e8vre Q, recommandations de prise en charge","author":"HCSP \u2010 Haut Conseil de la Sant\u00e9 Publique","year":"2013"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.12.4.518"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4081\/gh.2014.36"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3201\/eid2003.131111"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","first-page":"4","article-title":"Q fever in the Netherlands: An update on the epidemiology and control measures","volume":"15","author":"Hoek W.","year":"2010","journal-title":"Eurosurveillance"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CVI.00322-12"}],"container-title":["Zoonoses and Public Health"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/zph.12803","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/zph.12803","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/zph.12803","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,1]],"date-time":"2023-09-01T18:52:34Z","timestamp":1693594354000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/zph.12803"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,11]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/zph.12803"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/zph.12803","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1863-1959","1863-2378"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1863-1959","type":"print"},{"value":"1863-2378","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,11]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2020-06-12","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2020-12-26","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2021-01-11","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
