Abstract:
Objective:To understand the prevention and control progress of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis in Henan Province, to evaluate the effects of prevention and control measures, and provide a basis for adjusting prevention and control strategies.Methods:In 2019, a general survey was conducted in all registered drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis villages in Henan Province to monitor the basic conditions of water improvement, the fluoride content of drinking water and the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children aged 8-12 years. The control compliance (water fluoride content qualified and the detection rate of dental fluorosis of children ≤30%) status of the villages was analyzed, and calculate the compliance rate.Results:A total of 17 504 drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis villages were monitored, among them, 17 352 villages with water improvement and 152 villages without water improvement, with a water improvement rate of 99.1%. Among the 3 685 water improvement projects constructed, 3 448 were in normal operation, and the normal operation rate was 93.6%. There were 13 526 villages with qualified drinking water fluoride content, and the qualified rate of water fluorine was 77.3%; the actual beneficiary population was 11 011 000, and the population benefit rate was 90.1%. The qualified rate of water fluoride in the villages with and without water improvement was 77.9% (13 512/17 352) and 9.2% (14/152), respectively; the qualified rate of water fluoride in the villages with water improvement was significantly higher than that in the villages without water improvement (χ 2=400.58, P < 0.05). A total of 498 527 children of 8 to 12 years old were examined, 68 972 cases of dental fluorosis were detected, the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 13.84%, and the dental fluorosis index was 0.3. The number of villages meeting the control standard was 12 488, and the compliance rate was 71.3%. Conclusions:In Henan Province, the water improvement projects in the drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas have been basically implemented, and the disease has been effectively controlled. However, there is still a certain gap with the target of the "13th Five-Year Plan on National Prevention and Control of Endemic Diseases", and timely rectification is needed to ensure the effectiveness of the water improvement projects.
