Objective To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 5 patients with importing yellow fever ,and to explore the preventive and control strategies of infection in hospital .Methods The epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 5 cases of importing yellow fever in Infectious Disease Hospital of Fujian Medical University from March 18th to April 6th in 2016 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed .Results Five patients were all from Angola Luanda .One of them was vaccinated before going aboard ,and the others were vaccinated 1—10 days before disease onset in Angola .All of them were bitten by mosquitoes ,and their onset date ranged from March 11th to March 27th ,before returned to Fujian .The main clinical symptoms were fever ,chilly ,shivering ,fatigue ,arthrodynia ,headache ,and liver and kidney injury .At manifestations ,two patients had positive nuclear acid of yellow fever virus in serum samples and 3 patients were positive in urine samples .All of these patients were negative for dengue virus and Zika virus testing ,meanwhile no plasmodium was found in blood smears .All patients were cured and discharged . Conclusions There is risk of yellow fever transmission in Fujian Province . Prevention and control of the disease should be focus on improving the ability of finding and coping with the importing cases .Vaccination and hygiene knowledge propagation should be given for those who are going to epidemic country/area .Emergency monitoring and control of mosquitoes are necessary .

Objective To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 403 local cases with dengue fever , and to provide guidance for dengue fever's prevention , diagnosis and treatment . Methods The epidemical data ,clinical characteristics ,laboratory results ,therapy and outcomes of 403 cases with dengue fever treated in Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University ,Fuzhou from July to November 2016 were collected and analyzed retrospectively .Results Among the 403 cases , 56 cases (13 .89％ ) were younger than 20 years old ,160 cases (39 .71％ ) were 21 to 50 years old ,and 187 cases (46 .40％ ) were over 50 years old .The peak incidence period of dengue fever was from August to October ,accounting for 94 .29％ of the cases .The clinical classification was dominated by typical dengue fever (98 .01％ ) .Most of the cases had sudden onset .The main clinical symptoms included fever in 391 cases (97 .02％ ) , body aches in 355 cases (88 .09％ ) , and rash in 156 cases (38 .71％ ) . All patients were tested for serology and etiology of dengue virus at the early stage of disease .Among them , the positive rate of NS1 antigen was 95 .04％ ;the positive rate of IgM antibody was 13 .90％ ,and the positive rate of IgG antibody was 8 .19％ . Thrombocytopenia was founded in 332 cases (82 .38％ ) .Neutrophil count decreased in 293 cases (72 .70％ ) , w hite blood cell count decreased in 274 cases (67 .99％ ) .Aspartate aminotransferase increased in 256 cases (63 .52％ ) and alanine aminotransferase increased in 146 cases (36 .23％ ) .Creatine kinase elevated in 130 cases (32 .26％ ) and prothrombin time was prolonged in 40 cases (9 .93％ ) .A total of 289 cases (82 .75％ ) had bilateral lesions in both lungs and 25 cases (6 .20％ ) had pleural effusions . Color doppler ultrasound found 46 cases (11 .41％ ) of hepatomegaly ,84 cases (20 .84％ ) of splenomegaly ,8 cases (1 .99％ ) of a small amount of ascites . Conclusions Most of the 403 cases of dengue fever show typical clinical manifestations .Dengue fever mainly affects the blood system ,liver ,heart ,lung ,kidney ,skeletal muscle system ,and immune system . Clinicians should carefully observe the condition ,master the warning signs of severe dengue fever ,and achieve early identification and timely treatment of severe cases ,thereby reducing the mortality rate .

Objective: To make laboratorial diagnosis of imported yellow fever (YF) cases in Fujian province with molecular method . Methods: Serum and urine samples were collected from suspected cases at various time-points post illness onset. Real-time RT-PCR and nested RT-PCR were performed respectively for viral specific nucleotide detection and fragment amplification. Sequencing and restrictive fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method were used to identify the wild virus infection. Results: A total of five cases with wild yellow fever virus (YFV) infection were confirmed in this study. It revealed that the viral agent belonged to Angola-71 like YFV, and the duration of viral agent in urine was longer than that in serum. Conclusions Simultaneous detection of serum and urine samples would increase detection sensitivity, and further RFLP method contributed to rapid identification of wild YFV infection and exclusion of positive result due to recent vaccination.
