Figure 2.
Probable region of infection and Leishmania species complex of leishmaniasis cases identified by 15 European centres, 2014–2019 (n = 1,142)
Each region is shown in a different colour (boxes) and the countries within each region where leishmaniasis cases were diagnosed are indicated on the map. The corresponding pie chart represents the Leishmania species complexes (Table 2) that were identified within each region (see legend). The number below the region name is the total number of cases represented in the respective pie chart. The category ‘Other regions’ (green) includes the countries or states not included in one of the five natural endemic regions. The pie chart ‘Unknown’ represents cases for which the origin of infection could not be linked to any of the six regions, either because the case visited several regions, or travel history was not known. These data can be interactively explored in detail at country level from the MicroReact platform (https://microreact.org/project/leishman-2014-2019).
