Objective:
To analyze the epidemilogical and seasonal characteristics of foodborne Salmonella-associated diarrhea among children aged 0-6 years in Guizhou Province from 2016 to 2023, so as to provide a basis for the prevention and control of foodborne diseases.
Methods:
Data were extracted from the Foodborne Disease Survellance System for cases reported between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2023. The incidence, seasonal characteristics, and peak periods were analyzed by the method of concentration and circular distribution.
Results:
A total of 6 434 cases of diarrhea in children aged 0-6 years were collected, and 455 cases of Salmonella were detected, with a positive detection rate of 7.07%. Salmonella typhimurium was the main serotype causing diarrhea (59.34%). The peak of the disease was from May 3 to September 30, with certain seasonal characteristics. The highest detection rate was found in children aged 1-3 years (8.66%). Among food types, the positive detection rates of Salmonella were relatively high in other foods (17.39%), fruits and their products (10.22%), infant and toddler foods (10.09%), and aquatic animals and their products (9.80%). The processing and packaging methods of food were mainly home-made (9.38%) and bulk food (7.54%).
Conclusions
The detection rate of Salmonella in children aged 0-6 years is high in Guizhou Province, with strong seasonal characteristics. The detection rates of other foods, fruits and their products, infant and toddler foods, and aquatic animals and their products are high.

Objective:To explore the occurrence of dental fear in children with dental pulp disease and its relationship with temperament type and social development level.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study, using convenience sampling method to select 327 children with dental and pulp diseases who visited the outpatient department of the Department of Stomatology of Hunan Children′s Hospital from March 2022 to March 2023 as the study subjects. We used the Chinese version of the Children′s Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS) to evaluate the dental fear of children; The temperament types of the children were evaluated using the Chinese Preschool Children Temperament Scale (CPTS); The social development level of the children was evaluated using the Children′s Social Development Scale; Multiple logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to evaluate the influencing factors of dental fear in children with dental pulp disease.Results:A total of 106 out of 327 children with dental pulp disease developed dental fear, with an incidence rate of 32.42%(106/327). There was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of dental fear among children with different temperament types ( P<0.05). Children with troubled temperament had the highest incidence of dental fear (37/47, 78.72%), while those with mild temperament had the lowest incidence (16/124, 12.90%). There was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of dental fear among children with different levels of social development ( P<0.05). Children with low levels of social development had the highest incidence of dental fear (34/42, 80.95%). Girls, children with unpleasant dental experiences, weak oral health awareness, symptoms of toothache, parents with high school education or below, and families with an average monthly income of less than 3 000 yuan had a higher incidence of dental fear than boys; The incidence of dental fear in children with no unpleasant dental treatment experience, good oral health awareness, no symptoms of toothache, parents with a high school education or above, and a family average monthly income of ≥3 000 yuan was relatively low (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that having unpleasant dental experiences ( OR=2.751, 95% CI: 1.774-4.268), weak oral health awareness ( OR=2.465, 95% CI: 1.627-3.734), parents with high or lower education levels ( OR=2.366, 95% CI: 1.583-3.535), negative temperament types ( OR=2.573, 95% CI: 1.685-3.929), moderate social development ( OR=0.397, 95% CI: 0.261-0.603), and high-level social development ( OR=0.416, 95% CI: 0.276-0.627) were the risk factors of dental fear in children with dental pulp disease (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of dental fear in children with dental pulp disease is higher, which is related to their temperament type and social development level.
