Résumé

A cross-sectional study was carried out on 594 bovines (341 buffalo adults, 31 buffalo calves, 163 cattle adults, and 59 cattle calves) to assess the exposure of native bovine population to T. evansi elicited trypanosomiasis in the low-lying areas of Punjab (India). We ruled out the endemicity of the disease with 10.77% (95%CI = 8.53-13.52) sero-positive and 23.56% (95%CI = 20.33-27.15) suspected cases by card agglutination assay. We have presented the spatial distribution of these cases as a guideline to local veterinary practitioners and policy-makers. The categorical assessment of risk factors revealed buffalo adults are the most susceptible group in the state despite insignificant differences in farm management practices. A significant increase in the WBC, platelet, AST and serum iron, and decrease in haemoglobin, haematocrit volume, and serum glucose was recorded in both T. evansi positive and suspected animals.
