Crisis is an emergent event that threatens the national security, social regulation, civilian property and life, and needs urgent, decisive response in the condition of high instability. Crisis management should be prompt, active, honest, responsible and soluble, and should be carried out according to the model of preparation, reduction, response and recovery. SARS outbreak in China revealed constitutive defects in the immediate response for emergent public health event as well as crisis management. This paper provides some information for establishing the immediate response system for emergent public health event and crisis management.

Objective To understand the dynamic of Oncomelania hupensis snail status in Duchang County at north shore of Poyang Lake so as to provide the evidence for formulating the strategy of schistosomiasis control. Methods The data about the snail status in Duchang County from 2005 to 2012 were collected and the change trend of the snail status was analyzed. Re?sults From 2005 to 2012 all the average density of living snails the occurrence rate of frames with living snails the density of infected snails and the area with infected snails showed a trend of sharp decline and stayed at a low level. Compared to 2005 the above 4 indexes in 2008 decreased by 70.06% 90.33% 79.48% and 37.88% respectively and those in 2012 decreased by 99.35% 98.98% 99.33% and 93.84% respectively. The infection rates of snails fluctuated between 0.06%and 0.53%which showed a trend of first decrease and then increase. The snail area maintained at the level of 2 052.5 hm2 since 2007. Con?clusions Most of the indexes of the snail status in Duchang County have decreased to the lowest level in history since 2012 but the snail area is stable and the infection rate of snails shows a fluctuation trend which suggests that the risks of schistosomia?sis transmission still exist and the snail control still should be strengthened.

BACKGROUND: The understanding about characteristics and variation trends of cerebral vascular hemodynamic indexes in high-risk stroke population,in prior and post-stroke period patients as well as in normal people,particularly the cerebral vascular hemodynamic index(CVHD) prior to stroke can improve diagnosis efficiency of stroke and increase sensitivity and specificity of stroke diagnosis.OBJECTIVE: To study the features of CVHD in acute stoke,in order to provide evidences for early evaluation and rehabilitation intervention.DESIGN: Case analysis and observational study based on patients.SETTING: A neurological department in a general hospital of military area command of Chinese PLA and a prevention and cure institute of cerebrovascular diseases.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 55 (male 38,female 17) inpatients in the Neurological Department of Fuzhou General Hospital of Chinese PLA from June to December 2001 were enrolled in the study.METHODS: CVHD was measured during the first week after onset and the data were analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The CVHD,blood pressure and cerebral vascular hemodynamic parameters.RESULTS: The CVHD of each patient is below 75,median 32.5. The mean velocity,blood flow,maximum velocity,minimum velocity and difference between diastolic and critical pressures were lower than corresponding ones of healthy men in seventies( P < 0.01 ). And the pulse wave velocity,peripheral resistance,specific impedance and critical pressure increased( P < 0. 01).CONCLUSION: During the first week after stroke,the CVHD decreases and many hemodynamic parameters alters significantly. Examination of CVHD can reveal cerebral circulation insufficiency or predict an attack of cerebral stroke.

Objective To assess the incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation,door to needle time (DNT),and safety in patients with ischemic stroke who receive intravenous thrombolytic treatment prior to the availability of blood platelet (PLT) and coagulation results.Methods Consecutive acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack patients within 12 hours of symptom onset who were admitted from January 2009 to March 2013 were retrospectively recruited.First laboratory reports in their medical charts were collected to assess the incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation.In the mean time,consecutive AIS patients who received intravenous thrombolysis at Huashan Hospital during the same period were retrospectively recruited.The thrombolytic procedures were further optimized since June 10.3760/cma.j.issn.1006-7876.2014.07.00626,2012.With informed consent,intravenous thrombolysis was initiated without PLT and coagulation results after certain previous history and medications were ruled out.Thrombolytic patients were divided into two groups based on the initiation of thrombolysis before or after PLT and coagulation results.Baseline demographic data,symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rates,mortality on the 7th day as well as functional outcome at 3 months were collected.DNT as well as efficacy and safety of thrombolysis therapy were compared between the two groups.Results Of 298 AIS patients within 12 hours of onset,8 had thrombocytopenia or abnormal coagulation.One hundred and twenty cases of intravenous thrombolysis patients were recruited.Waiting for PLT and coagulation results prolonged DNT than without waiting for them (90 min vs 59 min; U =870.000,P <0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH),early efficacy,7 d mortality and 3-month good outcome between two groups.Conclusions The incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation is low in AIS patients.Initiating intravenous thrombolysis prior to the availability of coagulation results can shorten DNT,while increased risks of sICH and 7 d mortality were not observed.
