Objective To analyze the Oncomelania hupensis snail situation in schistosomiasis surveillance sites in Hubei Province from 2009 to 2014. Methods From 2009 to 2014,207 schistosomiasis endemic villages from 13 cities were selected as the surveillance sites in Hubei Province,where the surveillance of snail situation was performed,and the data about the in?dexes of snail situation during the 6 years were collected and analyzed statistically. Results From 2009 to 2014,totally 80 963.47 hm2 of snail areas were investigated,and 45 309.77 hm2 of area with snails as well as 364.93 hm2 of area with infected snails were found out,and 1 646 125 snails were captured. In the 207 surveillance sites,the density of living snails was reduced from 0.493 3 snail/0.1 m2 in 2009 to 0.339 3 snail/0.1 m2 in 2014,with a decline rate of 31.22%;the density of infected snails was reduced from 0.000 7 snail/0.1 m2 in 2009 to 0 in 2014;the infection rate of snails was reduced from 0.14%in 2009 to 0 in 2014. The infection rates of snails in the third?rank villages,endemic areas in inner embankment,ditch environment and weed environment were relatively higher. Conclusions The snail situation of Hubei Province has been declined steadily. However, the environment of snail breeding has not been changed completely. In order to consolidate the control achievements further ,the measures including mollusciciding and snail control projects should be strengthened.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of six stagnations elimination therapy on the content of typeⅠ, typeⅢ collagens and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression in atherosclerotic mice with vulnerable plaques, to discuss the possible mechanisms of this therapy in stabilizing vulnerable plaques.Methods The ApoE knockout mice were fed on high-fat diets, which built the vulnerable plaques model. Five groups were established, including normal group, model group, high-dose group, low-dose group, and simvastatin group, with 10 mice in each group. Dose groups were given drug intervention, while normal group and model group were given in the same amount of saline. After 12 weeks of drug intervention, the mice were put to death. TypeⅠ and typeⅢcollagens were observed using picric acid-Sirius red staining method. The expression of MMP-9 was detected by immunohistochemical method.ResultsCompared with normal group, vulnerable plaques formed more easily in model group.Compared with model group, typeⅠ collagen increased in high-does and low-dose groups, while typeⅢ collagen, the ratio of typeⅢ andⅠ collagens, and the expression of MMP-9 decreased (P<0.01).ConclusionSix stagnations elimination therapy could stabilize vulnerable plaques. Regulating typeⅠ andⅢ collagens content and inhibiting the expression of MMP-9 may be one of its possible mechanisms.
