The purpose of this study was to investigate the natural infection of Angiostrongylus cantonensis (A. cantonensis) in rodents in Fujian Province and provide more scientific evidences for control and prevention.?Rats captured with cages were numbered, and the species, gender and maturity were identified in each village every day. Rats' hearts and lungs were taken out and soaked into physiological saline solution to tear to pieces. The detected A. cantonensis were put into physiological saline solution in other glassware then the number and gender were identified. This investigation was conducted in 67 villages in 35 towns, covering 23 counties in 9 cities and regions. Except Shanghang County in Longyan city and Pingtan County in Fuzhou city, rodents infected with A. cantonensis was found in 21 counties. Of 4 890 rats were examined and 434 infected rats were identified with an infection rate of 8.90%. Rattus norvegicus had the highest infection rate of 17.75% (315/1 775), following by Rattus flavipectus with an infection rate of 6.21% (49/789). Additionally, the infection rates of the Musk shrew and Mus musculus were 2.81% (29/1 032) and 2.52%(3/119), respectively (χ2=185.06, P<0.001). Moreover, the infection rate of adult rats (21.37%) was much higher than that of immature rats (11.11%) (χ2=14.50, P<0.05). These results indicated that the A. cantonensis infection of rodents has covered most area in Fujian Province and the geographical distribution of infected rats was similar with that of Ampullaria gigas.

Objective Tracking of the vaginal microflora recovery and the expression of immune factors from untreated and treated patients with bacterial vaginosis (BV) by using different administration regimens and studying the relationship of treatment results and regimen selections. Methods 25 healthy females were selected as a control group and 100 BV patients were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=25/group). Group A: Intravaginal administration of metronidazole (× 7 d), Group B:Continuous intravaginal administration of metronidazole (× 7 d) and then live Lactobacillus Capsule (× 7 d) , Group C: Intravaginal administration of nifuratel (× 7 d), Group D: Continuous intravaginal administration of nifuratel (× 7 d) and then live Lactobacillus Capsule (×7 d). The microecological assessment system and EILSA were used to compare the clinical efficacy, vaginal microflora recovery and the changes in IL-8, TLR2 and TNF-αof the vaginal lavage fluid in healthy women or patients with bacterial vaginosis before and after treatments by four treatment strategies. Results ① The vaginal microflora imbalance, flora disturbance, pH value increased were presented in BV group compared with the control group.②Compared to the median of IL-8, TLR2 and TNF-α in vaginal lavage fluids of control group, there was no significant difference in IL-8 level but both TLR2 and TNF-αwere significantly increased (P<0.05) in BV group. The immune factors had no significantly difference in all BV groups.③The therapeutic effect in each BV groups was compared after stopping treatment for 7 days. The cure rate and the vaginal microflora recovery rate were significant higher in group B and D than group A and C (P<0.05). ④ After treatment there was no significant change in IL-8 level but there was an obviouslydecrease in TLR2 and TNF-α(P<0.05). The decreased levels are more significant in groups B and D than groups A and C (P<0.05). Conclusion By combining with the microecological assessment system to evaluate the therapeutic effect of BV, our research suggests that the sequence schemes of nifuratel plus live Lactobacillus Capsule is more effective in therapy effect, restoring normal vaginal micro-ecological environment and vaginal local immunity than metronidazole used alone.

Objective:To analyze the report accuracy and risk factors of congenital syphilis (CS), and to provide references of accurate diagnosis for clinicians.Methods:CS notification data, including suspected cases and confirmed cases, were obtained from national notifiable disease reporting system (NNDRS) reported from 2016 to 2019 in Guangzhou City. Information of syphilis infected pregnant women and their children who were diagnosed or excluded with CS during 2012-2019 were extracted from Guangzhou City'the integrated prevention of mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus, syphilis and hepatitis B virus surveillance system’. Their demographic characteristics, serological test results of syphilis, reporting doctors and treatment regimens were analyzed.Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors associated with CS.Results:A total of 95 CS cases were reported in NNDRS, and the reporting accuracy rate was 36.8%(35 cases). The proportion of children younger than 30 days who were reported incorrectly (73.3%(44/60)) was higher than the proportion of those were reported correctly (51.4%(18/35)), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.679, P=0.031). However, the reporting accuracy was not associated with hospital grade, doctor profession and doctor title of reporting ( χ2=0.283, 0.483 and 3.681, respectively, all P>0.05). Maternal age≤24 years (adjusted odds ratio ( aOR)=4.62), titers of non- Treponema pallidum antigen serologic test before treatment≥1∶8 ( aOR=7.56), initiation of antisyphilitic treatment during delivery ( aOR=25.43), no antisyphilitic treatment during pregnancy ( aOR=14.12), and premature delivery ( aOR=8.97) increased the risks of CS (all P<0.01). Conclusions:The reporting accuracy rate of CS is low. Young mothers, high serological titers of non- Treponema pallidum antigen before treatment, initiation of antisyphilitic treatment during delivery or no antisyphilitic treatment during pregnancy, and premature delivery are risk factors for CS. Doctors may focus on collecting this information to assist clinical diagnosis.
