Our results indicated that the surveyed counties are endemic for spotted fever group rickettsiosis because sera from 70 (34.8%) humans, 7 (7.6%) dogs, and 7 (25.9%) horses were reactive to at least one of the six <jats:italic>Rickettsia<\/jats:italic> species tested. Although there was evidence of ehrlichiosis (<jats:italic>Ehrlichia canis<\/jats:italic>) and babesiosis (<jats:italic>Babesia canis vogeli, Theileria equi<\/jats:italic>) in domestic animals, no human was positive for babesiosis and only four individuals were serologically positive for <jats:italic>E. canis<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>Borrelia burgdorferi<\/jats:italic>-serologic reactive sera were rare among humans and horses, but encompassed 51% of the canine samples, suggesting that dogs and their ticks can be part of the epidemiological cycle of the causative agent of the Brazilian zoonosis, named Baggio-Yoshinari Syndrome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.2010.09-0595","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,7,1]],"date-time":"2010-07-01T16:25:01Z","timestamp":1278001501000},"page":"201-206","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Survey for Tick-Borne Zoonoses in the State of Espirito Santo, Southeastern Brazil"],"prefix":"10.4269","volume":"83","author":[{"given":"Mariana G.","family":"Spolidorio","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcelo B.","family":"Labruna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rosangela Z.","family":"Machado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jonas","family":"Moraes-Filho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Augusto M.","family":"Zago","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dirlei M.","family":"Donatele","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S\u00f4nia R.","family":"Pinheiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iara","family":"Silveira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K\u00e9sia M.","family":"Caliari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Natalino H.","family":"Yoshinari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2795","reference":[{"key":"R1","series-title":"Am J Trop Med","first-page":"103","article-title":"Spotted fever in Brazil.
