Abstract:
Objective:To understand the prevention knowledge of brucellosis among permanent residents in the agricultural area of Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating brucellosis prevention strategies and measures.Methods:From May to December 2018, Daur Autonomous Banner of Morin Dawa and Arun Banner in the agricultural area of Hulunbuir City were selected as the survey sites. Three townships were selected from each banner, and one administrative village from each township was selected as the survey village. The permanent residents aged ≥14 who had lived in the survey village for at least one year were selected as the survey subjects. Serum was separated by the examiner and the rose-bengal plate agglutination test (RBPT) was conducted. The positive sera were further tested by tube agglutination test (SAT).Questionnaires were conducted by investigators in the form of face-to-face case interview, including general demographic information, family information, brucellosis prevention knowledge awareness status, epidemiological contact history, prevention status, general behavior, etc., to calculate the awareness rate of brucellosis prevention knowledge.Results:A total of 880 sera were isolated, of which 185 were positive for RBPT. Further examination of SAT showed that the positive rate of SAT was 17.27% (152/880). The overall awareness rate of brucellosis prevention knowledge was 46.73% (16 450/35 200). The awareness rates of males and females were 47.82% (8 473/17 720) and 45.64% (7 977/17 480), respectively. The 21 - 40 years old group had the highest awareness rate [60.94% (3 705/6 080)]. The awareness rates of primary school and below, junior high school, senior high school and above were 45.96% (11 969/26 040), 48.79% (3 962/8 120) and 49.90% (519/1 040), respectively. The awareness rate of people with livestock raising behavior in the year before the survey was 47.35% (8 011/16 920), while the awareness rate of people without such behavior was 46.17% (8 439/18 280).Conclusions:The overall awareness rate of brucellosis prevention knowledge among permanent residents in the agricultural area of Hulunbuir City is low. It is necessary to strengthen the training of relevant knowledge and strengthen the publicity and education of people with low awareness rate.
