A decision regarding the role of ticks as the proven andsuspected vectors of CCHFV (Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus):A meta-analysis review

Background and Aim : There are many studies present in literature performed to isolate CCHFVfrom ticks. However, gaps in knowledge for lack a decision regarding the role of ticks as CCHFVvectors caused to conduct this review.Methods : From papers identified, ۵۷ papers were selected to become the study meta-analysis.Results : The decision regarding the role of ticks as CCHFV vectors administrated based on thestudy and a separately literature search regarding the role of ticks as CCHFV vectors; CCHFVinfection rates and records; and trend of CCHFV infection records in ۳۱ tick species. The trend ofCCHFV infection records in ۳۱ tick species exhibited a decreasing trend indicating the degree andimportance of their roles as CCHFV vectors.Conclusion : Among ۳۱ CCHFV infected tick species, ۱۵ species have been enrolled as provenvectors and ۱۶ species are suspected as potential vectors
