Objective To understand the current state of staff for Plasmodium microscopy examinations in Changzhou City in the early stage of eliminating malaria action,so as to provide the evidence for achieving the target of malaria elimination. Methods The staff for Plasmodium microscopy examinations from medical institutions and centers for disease control and prevention at differ-ent levels were investigated by questionnaires and tests of the malaria related theory and microscopic operation. Results Totally 95 people were investigated,and among them,40.0%had college degree and 45.3%were university educated. There were 18.9%of them working on Plasmodium microscopy examinations for less than 1 year,40.0%for 2-5 years,18.9%for 6-10 years and 22.1%for more than 10 years. The numbers of person-time of provincial and municipal level training,district-level training,and unit-level training in the last year were 0.57,0.59,and 0.14,respectively. Totally 18.9%of them had the experience of finding Plasmodium at work,and 97.9% of them considered it was necessary or very necessary to do Plasmodium microscopy examina-tions. However,57.9%and 8.4%of them considered Plasmodium microscopy examinations increased their work load and work dif-ficulty,respectively. The average correct rates of knowledge tests on malaria before and after training were 72.5%and 91.6%re-spectively(P<0.05). The average mark of Plasmodium microscopic tests was 25.3 points(full mark being 50 points),and the passing rate(≥30 points)was 58.9%. Conclusion The working experience of staff for Plasmodium microscopy examinations in Changzhou City is relatively poor,and the related training should be enhanced.

Objective To investigate the current situation of iodine deficiency disorders and the effect of control measures in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, and to provide a basis for making up targeted control measures for iodine deficiency disorders. Methods In 2012, proportional probability sampling method(PPS) was used to select 30 primary schools in seven counties of Changzhou City;50 students aged 8-10 in each school were randomly selected to examine thyroid, and their urine and household salt samples were collected to detect iodine. Thirty pregnant and 15 lactation women were selected to detect their urine iodine in the town where the school was located in. Two drinking water samples were collected to detect iodine in the village where the school was located in. The questionnaire survey of health education was carried out among the children and the housewives. Results A total of 1 500 children were surveyed, and the rate of goiter was 0.07%(1/1 500); the median of urinary iodine was 224.81 μg/L. Five hundred and seventy-two pregnant women and 328 lactation women were surveyed, and the median of urinary iodine was 148.93 μg/L and 147.48 μg/L, respectively. Fifteen hundred salt samples were detected, and the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.47%(1 492/1 500); the edible rate of qualified iodized salt was 97.67%(1 465/1 500); and the median of salt iodine was 25.46 mg/kg. Sixty water samples were collected, and the median of water iodine was 3.63 μg/L. The health education awareness rates were 77.8%(2 100/2 700) and 88.0%(396/450) of students and housewives, respectively. Conclusion The control effect of iodine deficiency disorders is significant in Changzhou City, and monitoring of iodine nutrition level of special populations should be strengthened.

Objective To understand the status of knowledge,attitude,and practice of schistosomiasis prevention and con-trol and infection status in Armed Police Forces stationed along the Yangtze River,so as to provide the reference for formulating the schistosomiasis prevention and control measures in Armed Police Forces. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted in the Armed Police Forces along the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province,and the investigation content included social demo-graphic data,schistosomiasis prevention knowledge,attitude and behavior. All the subjects were examined for Schistosoma ja-ponicum infection. Results Totally 376 soldiers were investigated in 2 sites. The total passing rate of schistosomiasis knowl-edge was 72.87%. The passing rate among different age groups had no significant difference( χ2 =0.26,P > 0.05). The passing rate of soldiers from endemic areas was significantly higher than that of the soldiers from non-endemic areas( χ2 =4.71,P <0.05). The passing rate of officers was significantly higher than that of the soldiers(χ2 = 4.21,P <0.05). The passing rate of sol-diers with the education levels of junior school,high school,college,undergraduate and above increased gradually,with a sig-nificant difference( χ2 =8.16,P < 0.05). The soldiers with positive attitude accounted for 93.88%. Among the water contact be-haviors,training accounted for 17.55% and participating in the task(such as flood fighting and water work)accounted for 86.44%. When launching,the rate of taking protective measures was 52.93%. The rate of taking protective measures in the knowledge passing group was much higher than that in the knowledge failed group( χ2 =10.55,P < 0.05). The stool was harm-lessly treated in the two camps. Among 376 soldiers,the positive rate of blood examinations was 0.53%,but the stool examina-tions were all negative. Conclusions The overall level of knowledge and correct behavior of schistosomiasis prevention in the Armed Police Forces along the Yangtze River still should be improved. The better health education and behavior intervention are crucial to schistosomiasis prevention in the army.

Objective To analyze the Oncomelania hupensis snail distribution and the changes of snail situation in Chang-zhou City from 2013 to 2016,so as to provide the evidence for formulating the schistosomiasis prevention and control interven-tions. Methods The data of snail monitoring in Changzhou City from 2013 to 2016 were collected and statistically analyzed. Re-sults The total area with snails was 40.17 hm2 and the newly discovered area was 30.63 hm2 in Changzhou City from 2013 to 2016. In the four years,3454 snails were dissected,and no schistosome infected snails were found. There were totally 51 spots with snails,and the areas with snails of different types of marshland,inland and mountain were 12.13(30.19%),25.54 hm2 (63.57%)and 2.51 hm2(6.24%),respectively. In the newly discovered snail environment,the areas of types of marshland and inland were 8.00 hm2(26.12%)and 22.63 hm2(73.88%),respectively. The main causes for snail existence were external input and adjacent diffusion. In the past four years,the total snail control area with molluscicides was 71.74 hm2,the consolidated snail control area with molluscicides was 155.15 hm2,and the total environmental modification areas in the current snail spots and historic snail spots were 15.90 hm2 and 11.30 hm2 respectively. Conclusion The diffusion of snails in inland rivers is the key of the newly discovered snail areas in Changzhou City in recent years,and the snail monitoring and control measures should be strengthened in the future.
