THe positive correlativity of fecal examination and soluble antigen from two kinds of adult clonorchis sinensis was nearly 90%. Results of field survey showed that there was no obvious difference between the positive rates of fecal examination and that of ELISA. The positive correlativity was 89. 3%, and the negative correlativity was 92. 8% with 2309 cases. There was close relationships between positive correlativity and the clonorchis sinensis egg density (amount of egg/per gram fece) of the infected people. The positive correlativity of seriously infected people was as high as 97. 9%. while the positive correlativity of those with lighter infection was only 61. 1%. The more serious the infection, the serum antibody titers. was much higher.

ObjectiveTo demonstrate the long-term effect of Yishi Therapy for primary tinnitus and analyze the factors affecting the effectiveness. MethodsWe conducted long-term follow-ups of primary tinnitus cases treated with Yishi Therapy during 1 January 2017 to 30 June 2023 by face-to-face， online and telephone between 1 July 2023 and 31 January 2024， to understand the final regression of primary tinnitus and lifestyle changes. We retrospectively analysed the basic data of patients before treatment， and statistically analysed the recovery rate and overall effective rate of tinnitus treated by the Yishi Therapy， and the factors affecting the effectiveness such as lifestyle， age， duration of disease， gender， tinnitus location， severity of tinnitus， accompanying symptoms and complications on the overall effective rate. ResultsA total of 496 cases of primary tinnitus completed follow-ups successfully， and the total Tinnitus Evaluation Questionnaire （TEQ） at follow-up was significantly lower than that before treatment （P＜0.001）. Among the 496 cases， 101 （20.36%） cases cured， 189 （38.10%） cases showed significant improvement， 116 （23.39%） cases were effective， 90 （18.15%） cases were ineffective， and the overall effect rate was 81.85% （406/496）. At follow-up， the score of lifestyle was higher than that before treatment （P＜0.001）. Grouped by the score of lifestyle at follow-up， the effective rates of better lifestyle group and poor lifestyle group were 97.53% （237/243） and 66.80% （169/253）， respectively， with statistical significance （P＜0.001）. Grouped by the mean value of the difference in lifestyle scores before and after treatment， the effective rates of the group with greater lifestyle adjustment and the group with smaller adjustment were 97.55% （239/245） and 66.53% （167/251）， respectively， and the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.001）. Binary logistic regression showed that the better lifestyle， the greater lifestyle adjustment and the severity of tinnitus were positively correlated with the total effective rate of tinnitus （P＜0.001）， while older and hearing loss were negatively correlated with the total effective rate of tinnitus （P＜0.05）. ConclusionYishi Therapy on primary tinnitus shows good long-term effect， lifestyle， severity of tinnitus， hearing loss or not， age are the relevant factors affecting the efficacy of tinnitus， lifestyle is the main factor affecting clinical efficacy.
