ABSTRACT
AIM:
The aim of the study is to assess epidemiological situation of yersiniosis in Poland in 2017 in comparison to previous years. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
The evaluation is based on analysis of data from the annual bulletins "Infectious diseases and poisoning in Poland", information from individual yersiniosis case reports entered and shared by local sanitary-epidemiological stations through Electronic Registry of Epidemiologic Forms (SRWE), information from individual extraintestinal case reports fulfilled by local sanitary-epidemiological station and sent to the Departments of Epidemiology, National Institute of Public Health - National Institute of Hygiene by regional sanitary-epidemiological stations, information on outbreaks shared through the Electronic Registry of Epidemic Outbreaks (ROE) and data on deaths from the Department of Demographic Studies of the Central Statistical Office.RESULTS:
In 2017 255 cases of yersiniosis, including 191 intestinal and 64 extraintestinal were registered. Incidence in 2017 was 0.66/100 000 population. Number of cases registered in 2017 was higher than in 2015 and 2016 (for both years 205 cases with incidence 0.53/100 000 was observed) and similar to the one in 2014 (244 cases, incidence 0.63/100 000). In 2017 all intestinal yersiniosis cases met criteria for confirmed case. Around 35% of cases were registered in mazowieckie voivodship where incidence was similar to the one in European Union. Among Y. enterocolitica isolates, serotype was determined in 62 cases what stands for only 28.7% of all cases. Predominant serotype was 03, it was identified in 81% of serotyped cases. Most of intestinal yersiniosis cases occurred among children under 4 years (54.5% of all registered cases).CONCLUSIONS:
In 2017 increase in number of cases was observed. Yersiniosis in Poland is rarely diagnosed, incidence in Poland is more than twice time lower than in European Union.Palavras-chave
