Abstract:
Objective To grasp the distribution and epidemiology of confirmed cases of schistosomiasis in Hubei Province, so as to provide the evidence for promoting the prevention and control work. Methods The confirmed cases of schistosomiasis in Hubei Province from 2010 to 2014 were epidemiologically investigated,and the prevalence characteristics and main influenc?ing factors were analyzed. Results A total of 10 102 confirmed cases from 2010 to 2014 were surveyed. There were 1 062 local infected patients,accounting for 10.51%and including 354 repeated infections and 17 newly infected. There were 290 foreign?infected patients,accounting for 2.87%,with 206 repeated infection cases and 84 newly infected. There were 8 750 historical patients,including 2 229 patients who leaked the former schistosomiasis investigations,accounting for 22.06%;570 patients missed treatment,accounting for 5.64%;3 640 patients were treated with non?standard therapy,accounting for 36.03%;2 311 patients were treated with poor medication efficacy,accounting for 22.88%. The multivariate non?conditional Logistic regres?sion,targeting at confirmed cases in 2014,showed that,for the leaking investigations,the potential risk factors included the age,educational level,and latrine renovation(b>0,OR>1),the protective factors were the times of previous treatment,cat?tle feeding in villager team,and Oncomelania hupensis snails in surroundings(b<0,OR<1);for the treatment?missing,the age,educational level,snails in the surroundings of residence were risk factors(b<0,OR<1);for the substandard treat?ment,the risk factors included the occupation and snails in the surroundings of residence(b>0,OR>1),and the educational level and snails in the own field were protective factors(b<0,OR<1). Conclusion The epidemiological investigation on the confirmed cases of schistosomiasis could grasp the epidemic factors so as to improve the management and carry out the scientific control.
