The aim of this meta-analysis was to estimate the overall prevalence of deer TB in mainland China and to assess possible associations between potential risk factors and the prevalence of deer tuberculosis.
Methodology: This study was searched in six databases in Chinese and English, respectively (1981 to December 2023).
Mink circovirus disease caused by (MiCV) is a serious infectious disease of mink that has become prevalent in recent years in China, severely affecting the reproductive performance of mink and causing significant economic losses to farms. To date, there have been few studies on MiCV, its pathogenic mechanism is not clear, and there is no effective vaccine or drug to prevent and control the disease. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a rapid and reliable molecular diagnostic method, which would aid future studies of this novel virus.

Results indicate that the TS method identifies the most ISWs, followed by the WCI method, and the SI method identifies the fewest. When the ISW amplitudes are smaller than 60 m, the TS method can identify the most ISWs.
