Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of host animals on epidemics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) so as to provide a basis for effective control of HFRS.Methods From the national infectious disease network direct reporting system,the incidence of HFRS cases diagnosed by direct diagnosis of medical institutions in Qingdao was collected from 2011-2015.We captured rats indoor and outdoor by night trapping method quarterly and calculated the capture rates from 2011-2015 in Qingdao areas.The incidence of HFRS in different regions and the change of seasonal growth,the distribution of host animals,the characteristics and distribution of animals,and the seasonal variation of dominant species were analyzed and a database was set up and statistic analysis was conducted by SPSS 13.0.Results The peak incidence rate of HFRS in Qingdao areas occurred in 2012 (3.54/100 000) and presented a decrease trend year by year (x2 =64.15,P ＜ 0.05),but there were different characteristics among the epidemic areas,and lowest in 2015 (1.68/100 000).And the peak presented a two-peak pattern which was mainly an autumn peak and a gentle peak in late spring and early summer.The epidemics were gradually decreased from the rural areas to the urban fringes and then the urban areas.The seasonal variation was disappeared gradually.There was a heavy epidemic intensity in areas with a high capture rate and a complex type of host animals.The epidemic peak was in consistence with the distribution of rats.Capture rates were different among the epidemic areas.The capture rate in Jiaonan was the highest [5.32％(2 886/54 287)] and lowest in Pingdu [1.77％ (258/14 584)].The mean (x2 =820.39,P ＜ 0.05) and annual capture rates (x22011-2015 =32.61,356.24,233.07,129.33,33.42,all P ＜ 0.05) among epidemic areas were different.In the third quarter the accumulated capture rate was the highest [4.69％ (1 187/25 301)].In total 8 kinds of host animals were captured and the dominant species were brown rat [30.27％ (1 235/4 080)],house mouse[29.75％ (1 214/4 080)] and striped field mouse [16.25％ (663/4 080)].Conclusions The epidemic intensity of HFRS is related to the densities and the types of host animals.The gradually decreased epidemic pattern from the rural areas to the urban fringes and then the urban areas may be related to urbanization and improved health behaviors.
