Abstract:
Objective:The epidemic regularity and trend of human brucellosis in Qinghai Province were analyzed to provide basis for formulating more perfect prevention and control measures.Methods:Using descriptive epidemiological methods, the data of brucellosis reported cases in Qinghai Province from 2005 to 2018 (from the Infectious Disease Report Information Management System of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System) were collected, and the three distributions (time, region and population distributions) of human brucellosis were statistically described and analyzed.Results:From 2005 to 2018, a total of 418 cases were reported in Qinghai Province, with a incidence of 0.05/100 000, the incidence of different years was statistically different (χ 2 = 11.63, P < 0.05). The incidence of brucellosis remained at a low level from 2005 to 2010, ranged from 0 to 0.05/100 000; and the incidence increased from 2011 to 2018, ranged from 0.27/100 000 to 2.06/100 000. There were reported cases of brucellosis throughout the year, and the onset time was mainly from April to June, accounting for 42.82% (179/418). The 418 cases were distributed in 20 counties (cities, districts), among which the top 5 incidence rates were Menyuan County (15.31%, 64/418), Henan County (13.40%, 56/418), Tianjun County (13.16%, 55/418), Xining City (12.44%, 52/418), and Haiyan County (7.66%, 32/418). In the population distribution, brucellosis cases in the age group from 40 to 49 years old were the most, accounting for 32.78% (137/418), the male to female ratio was 1.58 ∶ 1.00 (256∶162) . And the occupational distribution was dominated by herdsmen, accounting for 57.18% (239/418). Conclusions:The epidemic situation of brucellosis in Qinghai Province is on the rise. It should be strengthened the population monitoring and notification of outbreaks, and health education for all should be implemented.
