Objective To identify the trend of endemic situation among surveillance sites in Jiagsu Province from 2000 to 2002. Methods Twelve schistosomiasis surveillance sites were es-tablished ,and the longitudinal, surveillance was carried out. Results The related index of snail increased in most of surveillance sites, the rates of positive snails rose rapidly in marshlands. The infection rates of Schitosoma janponicum of cattle decreased and infection rates of human were relatively steady. However, there was still the danger of heavy endemic. Conclusion Current control strategies can not effectively adapt to the endemic situation of schistosomiasis, although which have some effects on control of morbidity. We need to study the new characteristics and rule of the endemic of schistosomiasis, and make out more effective control strategies which can suit with the current society, economies and nature environment.

Objective To evaluate the eff ec t of snail control with niclosamide ethanolamine salt dustable powder (DP) in th e marshland of the Yangtze River ahead of the schedule in spring, and to underst and the impact of the low temperature to molluscicidal effect of the dusting. Methods The snail control test with niclosamide ethanolamine salt dustable powder was carried out under different te mperatures in laboratory. Then the snail control was undertaken in the marshland of the Yangtze River ahead of the schedule in spring, and the molluscicidal ef fect was observed and the temperature changes were also considered. Results When the temperature was 15 ℃ and 25 ℃ respectively, there was no significant difference on the molluscicidal effec t of niclosamide ethanolamine salt DP in laboratory. The average atmosphere temp erature in each day was 8.9-16.3 ℃ from the last ten-day of March to the fir st ten-day of April in Nanjing regions. The corrected mortality of snails and the r educed rates of density of snails were 95.38% and 99.97% respectively on the s ur face of the soil in the marshland field. The corrected mortality and the reduced rates of density of snails were 79.30% and 70.59% respectively in the surface l ayer of the soil. Conclusion The impact of air t emperature is little to the molluscicidal effect of niclosamide ethanolamine sal t DP when the average atmosphere temperature in each day was 10-15 ℃ in the ma r shland of the Yangtze River. If the snail control is undertaken ahead of the sch edule in spring, the reproduction of snails will be suppressed and the infection of Schistosma japonicum will be controlled. [

Objective To determine the de ve lopmental zero and effective accumulated temperature of Oncomela nia eggs under con stant temperature. Methods The eggs were cultur ed under different constant temperature, and their development duration and effe ctive accumulated temperature were studied. The zero accumulated temperature (℃ ) was obtained by using an estimation mode, and the effective accumulated temp erature was obtained by effective accumulated mode of K=N(T-C). [WT5”H Z] Results The average development duration was (27.29?17 .2 9) d under 15-30 ℃, the development zero temperature was 11.79 ℃ and 38.22 ℃ u nder low and high temperature respectively, and the average development temperat ure and effective accumulated temperature were (557.76?198.95) DD and(236 .02 ?68.20) DD.Conclusion The suitable developme nt temperature of eggs is 27 ℃, the development speed and effective accumulated t e mperature of eggs increases with the temperature under given condition, but too high temperature may have negative impact on the development of eggs. The resul t can be considered as the basic biological parameter of the snail.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the current measure of Oncomelania hupensis control in Jiangsu Province. Methods The snail control was carried out with molluscicides in the high transmission areas every year. Some snail habitat areas were modified. The snail areas within three years were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The snail survey was carried out every spring, and the data were analysed with SAS software. Results From 1995 to 2001, 14519.17 hm 2 of snail habitats were molluscicided, 2768.57 hm 2 were modified, and 8803.64 hm 2 were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The coverage rates of snail control areas dropped by 19.14% every year. The snail areas increased by 6.25% every year from 1995 to 2002. In which, the areas of infected snails increased by 18.52% every year. The correlation analysis showed that the areas of infected snails increased with the increasing of the total snail areas. At the same time, the areas of infected snails increased with the fall of the coverage rates of snail control areas. The analysis of the snail distribution showed that the main problem was poor snail control. Conclusion In recent years, the rise of area of snail habitats is serious in Jiangsu Province. The present measures of the snail control have not effectively stopped the spreading and increasing of snails. The research on the new molluscicides, the new methods of snail control and the better policies are very important.

Objective To explore the aestivation and lethal hyperthermy temperature of Oncomelania hupensis in summer,which is one of important ecology indexes,in order to understand the potential impact of global warming on the distribution of Oncomelania snail in mainland China. Methods Oncomelania hupensis hupensis snails were collected from the marshland region in Jiangsu Province and the aestivation and lethal hyperthermy temperature were examined by increasing temperature gradually in laboratory. Results The lethal hyperthermy temperatures of 50% Oncomelamia snails in dry and wet environment was 40.01℃ ( 95% of confidence interval from 39.76-40.27℃) and 42.13℃( 95% of confidence interval from 41.59-42.68℃), respectively. The logistic regression equations between temperature and mortality were d=101/(1+e 61.402269-1.535058X) (F=69.997,P

Objective To understand the distribution and fluctuation tendency of infected Oncomelania snails in marshland areas of Jiangsu Province in order to provide the scientific basis for acute schistosomiasis control. Methods In each county(city, district) 5-10 marshland areas with snails were sampled randomly, and of which 5-10 sites were selected. Fifty to one hundred snails were collected in each site and dissected by professionals to determine the natural infection rate. At the same time, the mollusiciding actions were carried out in the schistosome-positive snail sites and beaches. Results In 5 years, a total of 467 beaches have been checked and 102 positive beaches were find out and the snails detected. The positive rate of beaches was 21.84%(102/467). A total of 169200 snails were dissected , and of which 433 were positive snails. The natural infection rate was 0.2559%(433/169200). The infested areas and the number of positive snails in 2002 were 2.71 and 18.33 times of those in 1998 in Jiangsu Province. Conclusion In the continuous 5 years observation, the tendency of the population of positive snails and the infested areas were significantly growing, and there is a apotential threat for the acute infections. So, the keys of the following work should be controlling snails seriously in the marshlands and the rivers in connection with the Yangtze River, increasing the mollusiciding cover rate and improving the quality in the positive beaches, and surveying and treating the cattle time by time.
