Objective To analyze the antibody titer value of indirect haemagglutination test(IHA)in 135 confirmed acute schistosomiasis patients,so as to provide the evidence for improving the diagnosis and treatment of acute schistosomiasis. Meth-ods A total of 135 acute schistosomiasis inpatients were selected from 2001 to 2006. They all received the IHA antibody titer de-tection,and the correlation among the age,incubation period,and hospitalization days was calculated. Results The antibody titers of IHA were higher than 1:320 in all the cases. The percentages of 1:640,1:1280,1:2560,1:5120 and 1:10240 were 1.48%,28.15%,35.56%,20.00%,and 14.81%respectively. The mean age was(47.70 ± 14.58)years,average incuba-tion period was(38.03 ± 4.59)days and mean hospital stay time was(15.08 ± 3.79)days. The antibody titer value had no corre-lation with the age distribution(r=0.109,P>0.05). There was a negatively correlation between the antibody titer value and in-cubation period,(r=-0.558,P<0.01),there was a positive correlation between the antibody titer value and hospitalization time(r=0.791,P<0.01),and there were significant differences among different groups(F=17.07,64.53,both P<0.01). Conclusions The antibody titer of acute schistosomiasis cases detected by IHA is 1:640 and above. There is no correlation be-tween the antibody titer value and age,but the antibody titer value is higher,the incubation period is shorter and hospitalization time is longer.

Objective To evaluate the effect of schistosomiasis control in Gongan County,Hubei Province by longitudinal ob-servations so as to provide the evidence for formulating the schistosomiasis control strategy in lake and marshland regions. Meth-ods The schistosomiasis epidemic data in Gongan County from 2000-2013 were collected by the retrospective research method, and analyzed about the changing tendency of human and cattle infection rates,and Oncomelania hupensis snail situation. Re-sults The tendency of schistosomiasis epidemic situation was descended from 2000 to 2013. The human infection rate declined from 12.62%in 2000 to 0.69%in 2013. The decline scope of human infection rate was 24.1%in the first stage,64.4%in the sec-ond stage,and 73.0%in the third stage. Eight acute schistosomiasis cases were reported in the first stage,15 cases in the second stage,and none in the third stage. The cattle infection rate declined from 6.50%in 2000 to 0.30%in 2013. The rise scope of cattle infection rate was 74.2%in the first stage,but the decline scope was 75.0%in the second stage and 87.6%in the third stage. All the cattle were disposal at the end of 2013. The infection rate of snails,area with infected snails,and average density of living snails in the first stage increased by 18.1%,46.0%and 7.6%,respectively. The 3 indexes above-mentioned in the second stage de-creased by 76.8%,97.8%and 37.9%,respectively. In the third stage,the infection rate of snails and area with infected snails de-creased by both 100%,but the average density of living snails increased by 2.7%. The infected snails were found from 2000 to 2011,but none in 2012 and 2013. The infection rate of snails and area with infected snails dropped yearly,the infection rate of snails declined from 0.0007% in 2000 to 0.0002% in 2011,and the area with infected snails declined from 267.8 hm2 in 2000 to 6.37 hm2 in 2011. Conclusions After the implementation of the integrated schistosomiasis prevention and control strategy with the emphasis on infectious source control,the human and cattle schistosome infection rates decline significantly. Hereafter,it is necessary to prevent the schistosomiasis epidemic outbreak or rebound.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of combined therapy of compound azintamide and domperidone in functional dyspepsia. Methods A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.Two hundred and eight patients with functional dyspepsia were randomly grouped into group A (experimental group, 102 cases) and group B (control group, 106 cases). The patients in the group A were given 2 tablets of compound azintamide 3 times a day in addition to domperidone 10 mg 3 times per day for four weeks. The patients in the group B were only given domperidone 10 mg 3 times per day for 4 weeks. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated by modified Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (mSODA) and Global Patient Assessment (GPA). Results Subscore in mSODA:the change of bloating/pain intensity score in group A is -12.35±5.48 while group B is -10.52±4.65(P=0.009), the change of non-bloating/pain symptoms score in group A is -5.75±3.31 while group B is - 4. 86 ± 2.65 (P=0.033), and the change of satisfaction score in group A is 7. 09 ± 3. 78 while group B is 5.62 ± 3. 54 (P = 0. 004). The response rate in group A is 89. 2% which is significantly higher than 76.4% in group B (P=0. 015). Other symptoms for response assessment included loss of appetite, early satiety, fullness after meal, diarrhea. No severe side-effect was found in both groups. Conclusions Combined therapy of compound azintamide and domperidone may lead to bigger improvement in overall efficacy and health related quality of life in patients with functional dyspepsia than use of motility medicine alone. Potential mechanisms that may account for the efficacy of compound azintamide in functional dyspepsia include modulation of visceral sensitivity and/or gastrointestinal motility.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect of suspension concentrate of niclosamide ethanolamine salt(SC-NE)against Oncomelania hupensis snails in laboratory and field. Methods The experiment of SCNE against the snails by using the immersing and spraying methods was performed in laboratory and field,with control groups of wettable powder of ni-closamide ethanolamine salt(WPN). Results In the laboratory,LC50(s) of SCNE for 24,48 h and 72 h by using the immersion method were 0.0926,0.0629 mg/L and 0.0549 mg/L,respectively. The mortality rates of snails for 24,48 h and 72 h by using the immersion method were all 100% with the concentrations of 0.25 mg/L. The mortality rates of snails were all 100% while spraying SCNE for 3 d in the laboratory with the concentrations of 0.25 g/m2. In Jiangling County,except 0.5 g/m3 SCNE immers-ing the snails for 24 h,the mortality rates of snails by using SCNE with the immersing method were all 100%. While the concen-tration of SCNE was 0.5 g/m3 or above,the mortality rates were all 100%after the use of it with the immersion method for 2 d in Gong'an County. In Jiangling County,the mortality rates of snails by using SCNE 0.5 g/m3 for 1 d,3 d,and 7 d with the spray-ing method were 87.5%,92.82%and 97.40%respectively. While the concentration of SCNE was 0.5 g/m3,the mortality rates were 85.94%,86.78%and 94.21%respectively after the use of it with the spraying method for 1 d,3 d,7 d in Gong'an Coun-ty,and the molluscicidal effect of SCNE(1.0 g/m2)was higher than that of WPN. Conclusion SCNE has a high molluscicidal effect in the laboratory and field,and it is a novel and simple formulation of niclosamide.

Multi-disciplinary team(MDT)mode is regarded as the key to standardized diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors. The model, however, encounters such roadblocks in the current form of MDT organization, as costly clinical resources and time consumption, low efficiency, poor management of participating experts in MDT, and lack of enforceability of the therapeutic decisions made. This paper summarized the practical MDT experiences of the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Shandong First Medical University. It introduced the construction of an intranet-based MDT system covering a large proportion of newly diagnosed malignant tumor patients, and the practices and achievements of such MDT management system under hospital administrative guidance. The authors proposed to use reporting ratio as the main assessment indicator in promoting MDT, and that to define the performance, responsibilities and rights in MDT practice. These measures aim at to upgrading individual behaviors of doctors to organizational behaviors of hospitals, and providing cancer patients with more standardized, comprehensive and personalized diagnosis and treatment decisions.
