Abstract

Malignant Catarrhal Fever(MCF) is an important disease in ruminants caused by the Herpesvirus.Itis a lymphoproliferative disease thathas a high risk and huge economic losses. Therefore, the goal ofthis study was to conduct a systematic review on the world prevalence of malignant catarrhal fever between 2000 to 2020. PRISMA guidelineswere used in reportingthisstudy. Themain database usedwas Scopus,from which articles relevant to the topic were selected and screened. The inclusion criteria used to select articles were (i) the study period was done between 2000-2020; (ii) speciesstudiedwere goats, sheep, ordeer; (iii) prevalence wasrecorded in the articles, and; (iv) studies were written only in English. Two authors individually assessed the related references forrelevance. A total of 15 out of 29 potentially relevant articles were included in this review. Then, the data were extracted from the articles by the authors using Microsoft Excel, and a summary ofthe data was created. From the summary, the highestMCF prevalence in goats, sheep, and deerwere 96%(Turkey), 100% (Iraq), and 3.5% (Norway) respectively. In conclusion, the global prevalence of MCF was high and itwas linked to various risk factors including animal management; age, and temperature. This review can contribute to future research on the occurrence of MCF and disease mitigation.
