Abstract (English):	Introduction: Understanding the ecology of diseases requires the comprehension of pathogens in wild life-livestock interface. Feral/wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are a health problem when countries work to prevent and control zoonotic diseases; their populations raise environmental and health concerns due to infectious agents transmissible to domestic pigs and other animal species, including humans. Objective: Prioritize zoonotic diseases in feral/wild pigs, domestic animals and humans interface. Materials and methods: The semi-quantitative prioritization method based on evidence included 27 criteria founded in recent publications; according to viral etiology and classifying them in 5 categories: epidemiology (8), prevention/control (3), economy/trade (4), public health (9) and society (3). Each criterion had coefficient of 0-7 according to impacts based on evidence (maximum sum of 189). Evidence of the criteria for these 9 viral diseases were extracted from the review of 81 sources published between 1977 and 2015. Results: The top three diseases with the highest score and zoonotic potential were: Swine influenza (133), hepatitis E (123), and hantavirus infection (103 ); whose high score was observed on epidemiology and public health criteria. Conclusion: The semi-quantitative methods of prioritization, impartially contribute to decision making based on data; but it is rare to use these in developing countries by the lack of data on public health surveillance. Control of shared diseases requires the development of strategies to reduce transmission of pathogens between wildlife and domestic animals and humans. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	Introducción. Entender la ecología de enfermedades requiere comprender los patógenos en la interfaz vida silvestre-ganado. Los cerdos silvestres (Sus scrofa) constituyen un problema sanitario cuando los países trabajan por prevenir y controlar enfermedades zoonóticas; sus poblaciones plantean preocupaciones ecológicas y sanitarias, por agentes infecciosos transmisibles a cerdos domésticos y otras especies animales, incluyendo humanos. Objetivo. Priorizar enfermedades zoonóticas en la interfaz cerdos silvestres, animales domésticos y humanos. Materiales y métodos. El método de priorización semicuantitativa basado en evidencia incluyo 27 criterios, fundamentados en publicaciones recientes; según etiología viral y clasificándolos en 5 categorías: epidemiología (8), prevención/control (3), economía/comercio (4), salud pública (9) y sociedad (3). Cada criterio tuvo un coeficiente de 0-7 de acuerdo a impactos basados en evidencia (sumatoria máxima de 189). La evidencia de los criterios para las 9 enfermedades virales se extrajo a partir de la revisión de 81 fuentes publicadas entre 1977 y 2015. Resultados. Las tres enfermedades con mayor puntaje y potencial zoonótico fueron: influenza porcina (133), hepatitis E (123) e infección por Hantavirus (103); cuya mayor puntuación se observó en los criterios de epidemiologia y salud pública. Conclusión. Los métodos semi-cuantitativos de priorización, aportan imparcialmente a la toma de decisiones basadas en datos; pero, es poco frecuente la utilización de éstos en países en desarrollo por la falta de datos de vigilancia en salud pública. El control de enfermedades compartidas con la vida silvestre requiere el desarrollo de estrategias que reduzcan la transmisión de patógenos entre la vida silvestre y animales domésticos y humanos.
