Epidemiological features of Mediterranean spotted fever, murine typhus, and Q fever in Split-Dalmatia County, (Croatia), 1982-2002

We determined the epidemiological features of three zoonoses in hospitalized patients in southern Croatia. Patients were diagnosed by using serological testing. Clinical and epidemiological data also were collected. Between 1982 and 2002, Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) was diagnozed in 126 (incidence rate 1.27/100000/year), murine typhus (MT) in 57 (incidence rate 0.57/100000/year), and Q fever in 170 (incidence rate 1.7/100000/year) patients. MSF and Q fever were characterized by a marked seasonality. Incidences of Q fever and of MSF were higher for males than for females ( P < 0.0001 and P=0.0024, respectively). The most frequent of the three zoonoses in children was MSF. Q fever and MT cases were seen mostly in the 21-50 years age group. We found no statistically significant differences between season- and gender- specific incidence rates of MT. Whereas infections due to rickettsiae decreased, the incidence of Q fever increased over the last 12 years of the study.
