Leptospira antibodies were detected by a microscopic agglutination test (MAT), and laboratory tests were conducted to analyse the prevalence of Leptospira in the population.\nResults: From 2020 to 2022, a total of 41 cases of human leptospirosis were reported in Wenzhou, China, with no deaths and an average annual incidence of 0.1428\/100,000. The highest incidence was in 2021 (30 cases, incidence rate: 0.31\/100,000), and the lowest incidence was in 2022 (three cases, incidence rate: 0.04\/100,000). The high-incidence season was from August to October, in which a total of 36 cases were reported, accounting for 87.80% of total cases, most of which were males. The main occupation was farming, which accounted for 70.7% of the total number of cases. 90.2% of cases had fever symptoms, and the body temperature was between 36.5 \u2103 and 40.1 \u2103. A total of 32 positive samples were detected by MAT in six main groups, mainly the Autumnalis serogroup.\nConclusions: The incidence of leptospirosis in Wenzhou, China, was at a moderate level from 2020 to 2022. Localities should actively strengthen the monitoring of leptospirosis host animals and populations, understand the infection rate and floral changes and prevent leptospirosis outbreaks.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3855\/jidc.18434","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,17]],"date-time":"2024-12-17T14:03:16Z","timestamp":1734444196000},"page":"1709-1714","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Epidemiological trends and clinical characteristics of human leptospirosis in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, 2020\u20132022"],"prefix":"10.3855","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"YueYing","family":"Zhou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"XianMin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"HuiJuan","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhengxing","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ning","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"HongYe","family":"Ning","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"SaiDuo","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"XinChun","family":"Ye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chao-Chao","family":"Qiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"KaiJia","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-4023-0111","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"JiChan","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2222","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,30]]},"container-title":["The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/jidc.org\/index.php\/journal\/article\/download\/39693163\/3504","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/jidc.org\/index.php\/journal\/article\/download\/39693163\/3504","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,25]],"date-time":"2024-12-25T01:00:43Z","timestamp":1735088443000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jidc.org\/index.php\/journal\/article\/view\/39693163"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,30]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3855\/jidc.18434","relation":{},"ISSN":["1972-2680"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1972-2680","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,30]]}}}
