食品伙伴网讯 据欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)消息,1月21日欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)动物健康与福利小组(AHAW)对欧盟人畜共患病以及食源性疾病总结报告中的数据需求和后续分析进行了评估,旨在减少由于现有数据不完善以及不一致所造成的影响。
报告指出,通过对牛结核病、包虫病、Q型流感、布鲁氏菌病、狂犬病、猪囊尾蚴病和土拉菌病的详细评估,对欧盟监控系统内的传染病做出了准确的流行病学感染情况描述。总结报告进行了描述性的数据分析,仍需对特定目标和量化趋势进行进一步分析。
每种疾病应包括以下具体信息:(1)明确的案例定义;(2)采用的抽样技术和诊断检测方法的清晰描述;(3)相关的流行病学特征;(4)相关的监控措施。从公共卫生角度区分疾病优先级不在AHAW小组的职责权限之内,
然而动物健康与福利小组提出了疾病的3项优先判定评估标准:(1) 疾病是否定期在某些欧盟成员国中报告;(2)疾病是否被认为是一种严重的公共卫生问题;(3)是否进行了合理的动物流行病学检测。

The Animal Health and Welfare (AHAW) Panel of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has evaluated the European Union Summary Report on Trends and Sources of Zoonoses, Zoonotic Agents and Food-borne Outbreaks by EFSA and ECDC (the report) with regard to data needs and subsequent analyses that will minimise the impact of existing data gaps and inconsistencies. Specific assessments performed for bovine tuberculosis, echinococcosis, Q fever, brucellosis, rabies, cysticercosis and tularaemia show that the report gives an accurate picture of the epidemiological situation for the infections which have an EU harmonised monitoring system.
Generally the data analysis is descriptive; further analysis for specific purposes and quantification of the trends should be considered. Specific information for each disease should contain (i) a clear case definition, (ii) a clear description of sampling techniques and diagnostic tests used, (iii) relevant epidemiological characteristics and (iv) relevant control measures or surveillance.
