dc.descriptionThis research focuses on determining the presence of Feline Coronavirus (FCoV) in cats treated at the Hospivet Babahoyo Veterinary Hospital in the city of Babahoyo, Los Ríos. The study falls within the research line of Human and Animal Health, under the sub-line of Veterinary Public Health. The main objective of this research was to diagnose the presence of Feline Coronavirus through serological tests for antibody detection in the felines treated at Hospivet Babahoyo Veterinary Hospital. Additionally, clinical signs associated with positive cases were identified, and correlations between variables such as age, sex, and weight were analyzed. For diagnosis, the Bioguard FCoV immunochromatography test was used. The data obtained were analyzed using the Chi-square statistical test, revealing a significant difference of 0.05 in the presence of FCoV according to sex. Regarding age, it was observed that patients between 0 and 6 months are less susceptible to the disease, as no positive cases were detected in this age group, unlike patients aged 7 months and older, who did present positive cases. No significant correlation was found regarding the weight of the animals.es_ES

dc.description.abstractEl presente estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar la presencia de Coronavirus Felino (FCoV) en los gatos atendidos en el Hospital Veterinario Hospivet Babahoyo, en la ciudad de Babahoyo, provincia de Los Ríos. Se realizó un análisis serológico mediante la técnica de inmunocromatografía (Bioguard FCoV) en una muestra representativa de felinos, encontrándose una prevalencia del 20% de casos positivos para FCoV. Los resultados mostraron una diferencia significativa en la prevalencia del virus según el sexo de los felinos, con un valor de p = 0,025, lo que sugiere que el sexo es un factor determinante en la susceptibilidad al virus. Sin embargo, no se encontraron diferencias significativas en la prevalencia del virus en relación con la edad (p = 0,549) y el peso (p = 0,332) de los felinos. A pesar de esto, se observó que los pacientes de 0 a 6 meses de edad no presentaron casos positivos, indicando que los felinos más jóvenes podrían ser menos susceptibles a la enfermedad en comparación con los mayores de 7 meses. Este estudio aporta información valiosa sobre la epidemiología del Coronavirus Felino en la región, destacando la importancia de continuar con investigaciones que permitan profundizar en los factores de riesgo y en las medidas preventivas para la salud de los felinos.es_ES
