Introduction: Brucellosis is one of the most frequent zoonosis in most parts of the world. This zoonosis remains a great problem to public health in developing countries, although developed countries have successfully controlled it. Mexico still shows a high annual brucellosis incidence in humans; thus, the country is considered around the world as an endemic brucellosis country.
Aim: To describe the connection/association between this zoonosis and the current epidemiological situation in the Mexican population.
Methods: Perusal of research reports, epidemiological studies and veterinarian reviews performed in Mexico, using data bases such as PubMed, Thompson Reuters, Mesh research.
Conclusion: The risk of infection by Brucella in Mexico is associated with the consumption of unpasteurized dairy products, mainly fresh cheeses.

Bovine brucellosis (bB) is a zoonosis mainly caused by the species in cattle. Bovine brucellosis can present with either a range of clinical symptoms, including spontaneous abortions in the last trimester of pregnancy, retained fetal membranes, and decreased milk production, or it can be asymptomatic. In Ecuador, vaccination against bB with S19 and/or RB51 is not mandatory and is the responsibility of the farmer.

Brucellosis is still the most common zoonosis worldwide despite advanced technology and animal husbandry. Since there is still no effective vaccine for humans, it is crucial to control the disease in ruminants through eradication and vaccination. Although some countries around the world have achieved this circumstance, every country aims to become free of Brucellosis through vaccination, animal movements, and various eradication measures.

Background: Human brucellosis is the most common bacterial zoonosis worldwide, with brucella spondylitis (BS) being one of its most severe forms, potentially leading to spinal deformity or paralysis. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current status and research trends in the BS field using bibliometric methods.
Methods: Publications on BS from January 1, 1980, to March 24, 2024, were retrieved from the Web of Science database.
