Objective To analyze the changing rules of schistosomiasis endemic situation before and after reaching the crite-ria of schistosomiasis transmission controlled or transmission interrupted in Zhejiang Province,so as to provide scientific evi-dence for schistosomiasis contro1. Methods Xiuzhou District and Zhuji City were selected and investigated retrospectively to collect schistosomiasis epidemiological information 10 years before they reached the criteria of transmission controlled and the subsequent years until 2008. The database of retrospective investigation was established for analyzing the trends and rules of changes of Oncomelania hupensis snail status and schistosome infection status of cattle and human. Results The snail status and schistosome infection kept a steady declining before reaching the criteria of transmission controlled ,and there were positive correlations between the area of living snails and the infection rates of human and animal in two places(rhuman=0.764,P<0.01, rcatl e=0.709,P<0.01;rhuma=0.775,P<0.01,rcatl e=0.676,P<0.01);No local infection person and animal except residual snails, and found 7 cases of imported infection source were found after reaching the transmission interruption. Conclusion The epi-demic status of schistosomiasis in zhejiang is stable after reaching the criteria of transmission interruption ,and residual snail are easy to re-found and spread under some certain conditions,and some imported cases were found sometimes,which may in-crease the risks for re - emergence of schistosomiasis. The integrated solidification strategy with emphasis on control of residu-al snails and imported cases should be taken in the areas of transmission interruption in the future.

Objective To explore the characteristics and data collection sources of featured literature databases in universities/colleges in Yunnan in order to provide evidence for building featured literature databases. Methods Key information about three types of featured literature databases was retrieved online, which included those being constructed jointly by some universities or colleges in Yunnan, owned by universities or colleges in Yunnan, and already in use in China Academic Library and Information System ( CALIS) , respectively. Comparison was performed among these featured literature databases in regard to data characteristics and collection sources. Results Among all the featured databases being constructed, 58.8% were based on literature on local resources, 17.6% on disciplines and specialties, and 11.8% on library literature. In-use featured databases in Yunnan were mainly based on local resources and disciplines, and the data were collected within their own organizations or through multi-sources. The featured databases in CALIS were of local resources, disciplines, and people, while their data were collected mainly within their own organizations, through other organizations and multi-sources. Conclusion Yunnan featured databases are of unique characteristics, but more should be done to define Yunnan style data, while it is necessary to collect data from a wider range of sources.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of cutaneous adverse reactions to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.Methods Thirty patients with cutaneous adverse reactions to tyrosine kinase inhibitors were enrolled from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between January 2015 and December 2016,and their laboratory test results,histopathological findings and treatment response data were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Results Of the 30 patients,15 presented with acneiform eruptions,10 with eczematoid eruptions,2 with morbilliform rashes,1 with telangiectasia,1 with hand-foot skin reaction,9 with xerosis,7 with nail changes and 4 with hair changes.A patient with grade 4 acneiform eruptions showed a markedly elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) level (315 U/L).Mild ALT abnormalities (48.5-88.1 U/L) were found in 3 patients with grade 3 acneiform eruptions,1 with grade 2 acneiform eruptions,1 with grade 1 acneiform eruptions and 1 with eczematoid eruptions complicated by fever.Two patients with eczematoid eruptions and 1 with morbilliform rashes showed elevated proportions of peripheral blood eosinophils (0.057-0.303).Pathological changes of the acneiform eruptions included hyperkeratosis and dilation of hair follicles and neutrophilic infiltration.Pathological manifestations of eczematoid eruptions included different degrees of spongiosis,thickened spinous layer,irregular elongation of rete ridges and liquefaction degeneration of basal cells in the epidermis,and perivascular infiltration of lymphocytes and eosinophils in the superficial dermis.Patients with grade 1-3 acneiform eruptions received oral minocycline for 6 weeks,skin lesions gradually regressed,but relapse occurred after the withdrawal.After withdrawal of targeted antineoplastic agents and 2-week treatment with systemic glucocorticoids,skin lesions gradually regressed in patients with grade 4 acneiform eruptions,those with eczematoid eruptions complicated by fever,and those with morbilliform rashes.Skin rashes also resolved in patients with mild morbilliform rashes and those with mild eczematoid eruptions after 2 weeks of treatment with antianaphylactic agents and topical glucocorticoids.Oral antibiotics were effective for the treatment of periungual erythematous swelling or granulomas.Conclusion Tyrosine kinase inhibitor-related cutaneous adverse reactions include a constellation of disorders,and hepatic function can be impaired.

Objective To clarify the impact of pre-and postnatal iron deficiency on children's motor development.Methods This was a longitudinal follow-up study.A total of 114 infants (58 boys,56 girls) born from April 2010 to December 2011 in Fuyang district of Hangzhou were enrolled.Based on cord blood and 9-month iron status,subjects were divided into prenatal iron deficiency (34 children),postnatal iron deficiency (37 children) and non-iron deficiency group (43 children).Peabody Developmental Motor Scale and BOT2-simplified version were used to evaluate the motor capacity in infants and preschoolers at 9 months,18 months and 5 years,respectively.Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was used to investigate the trajectory of motor development with age,the influence of different timing of early iron deficiency on children's motor development,and the differences (adjusted for possible confounding factors) in motor development in children with pre-or postnatal iron deficiency or non-iron deficiency in different family educational environment.Results At the age of 9 months,18 months and 5 years,107,109,and 114 children were evaluated respectively.After controlling for a variety of confounding factors,it was found that children with prenatal iron deficiency had significantly lower scores of motor development compared with non-iron deficiency children (52.04 vs.54.05 scores,β =-2.01,P=0.007),and that children with postnatal iron deficiency had similar scores of motor development compared with non-iron deficiency children,showing no significant difference (53.07 vs.54.05 scores,β=-0.98,P=0.180).Regardless of the maternal education status,prenatal iron deficiency children always had lower motor scores than non-iron deficiency children (49.86 vs.52.15 and 49.58 vs.51.58 scores,β=-2.29,-2.00;P=0.031,0.049).Among the non-iron deficiency children,those whose mothers had a higher education level had higher motor scores compared with those whose mothers had a lower education level (52.45 vs.50.46 scores,β=1.99,P=0.035).Conclusions The motor development of children with prenatal iron deficiency did not catch up with their counterparts without iron deficiency by 5 years of age.The results indicate the importance of preventing iron deficiency in the fetus.
