Objective To evaluate the changes in cerebral perfusion after moyamoya disease revascularization using two-phase arterial spin labeling(ASL)combined with territorial arterial spin labeling(t-ASL).Methods A retrospective selection was conducted on 34 moy-amoya disease patients with 37 cerebral hemispheres who underwent revascularization surgery.ASL[post labeling delay(PLD)of 1.5 s and 2.5 s],t-ASL,and digital subtraction angiography(DSA)were performed before and after surgery.The cerebral blood flow(CBF)and relative cerebral blood flow(rCBF)values in the middle cerebral artery(MCA)supply area from ASL were com-pared before and after surgery.t-ASL and DSA were used to score the area of revascularization on a 3-point scale,and weighted Kappa was used to compare the consistency of the revascularization area assessments.A DSA score greater than 1 point was classified as good revascularization.The diagnostic efficacy of ASL(PLD 1.5 s,2.5 s)and t-ASL for revascularization were compared.Results In ASL PLD 1.5 s,the preoperative and postoperative CBF values were(32.65±12.71)mL·100 g-1·min-1 and(43.09±18.05)mL·100 g-1·min-1,respectively,and the rCBF values were 0.76±0.23 and 1.02±0.31;In ASL PLD 2.5 s,the preoperative and postoperative CBF val-ues were(47.07±13.28)mL·100 g-1·min-1and(52.85±14.98)mL·100 g-1·min-1,respectively,and the rCBF values were 1.21±0.31 and 1.33±0.29.There were statistically significant differences between preoperative values and postoperative values above(P<0.05).The revascularization area score showed strong consistency(weighted Kappa coefficient=0.729).Receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve analysis revealed that t-ASL reflected the revascularization area with area under the curve(AUC)of 0.982,while ASL PLD 1.5 s and 2.5 s CBF reflected the revascularization area with AUC of 0.813 and 0.794,espectively.Conclusion The com-bination of two-phase ASL and t-ASL more effectively evaluates cerebral blood after moyamoya disease revascularization.Furthermore,t-ASL demonstrates higher efficacy in evaluating postoperative revascularization.

Objective:To understand the knowledge and skills of professional technicians in prevention and control of parasitic diseases in Shandong Province, and to provide a basis for further capacity building.Methods:On October 12 and 13, 2017, five professional technicians from each of 17 prefectures and cities in Shandong Province participated in the "Shandong Province Parasitic Diseases Prevention and Control Job Skills Competition in 2017". This competition included theoretical knowledge examination (written test) and operation skill examination (operation test). The written test included basic knowledge of parasites life history, pathogen, diagnosis, epidemic and prevention; the operation test included blood smear making, Kato-Katz thick smear making, microscopic examination of Plasmodium and Helminth eggs. The competition results of the competitors were statistically analyzed, and the pass rate, correct answer rate and accuracy of microscopic examination were calculated. According to the report of malaria cases from 2010 to 2017, 17 prefectures and cities in Shandong Province were divided into malaria classⅠreport area (≥100 cases) and malaria classⅡreport area (< 100 cases), and the competition results of the two types of areas were compared. Results:A total of 85 competitors in Shandong Province participated in the competition, including 19 males (22.35%) and 66 females (77.65%); the age was (34.67±6.04) years old, the youngest was 25 years old, and the oldest was 51 years old. The scores of written test and operation test were (67.06±12.73) and (59.31±14.23) points, respectively, and the difference between them was statistically significant ( t=4.949, P < 0.01). The pass rate of written test was 74.12% (63/85); the correct answer rates of morphology, life history, pathogenicity, diagnosis, epidemic and prevention were 71.76% (366/510), 71.61% (913/1 275), 67.94% (462/680), 71.18% (847/1 190), 66.91% (455/680) and 65.76% (1 062/1 615), respectively, there was statistically significant difference in the correct answer rates of different knowledge points (χ 2=18.185, P < 0.01). The pass rate of operation test was 55.29% (47/85); among them, the pass rates of blood smear making, Kato-Katz thick smear making, microscopic examination of Plasmodium and Helminth eggs were 98.82% (84/85), 98.82% (84/85), 70.59% (60/85) and 31.76% (27/85), respectively. Four Plasmodium species were examined, and the overall accuracy of microscopic examination was 61.41% (261/425), there was no statistically significant difference in the accuracy of microscopic examination between different Plasmodium species (χ 2=4.791, P > 0.05). Nine common Helminth eggs were examined, and the overall accuracy of microscopic examination was 47.29% (402/850), there was statistically significant difference in the accuracy of microscopic examination between different Helminth eggs (χ 2=180.064, P < 0.01). The scores [(28.27±3.74) and (23.20±3.39) points, n=30] of microscopic examination of Plasmodium and Helminth eggs in the malaria classⅠ report area were higher than those in the malaria classⅡreport area [(22.40±5.81) and (18.25±3.41) points, n=55], and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.217, 2.860, P < 0.05). Conclusions:For professional technicians, the mastery of theoretical knowledge in prevention and control of parasitic diseases is better than operation skills in Shandong Province. So the training and assessment of prevention and control skills of parasitic diseases should be strengthened in areas with weak abilities.

Objective:To understand epidemiological characteristics of imported cases of malaria in Shandong province and provide scientific basis for timely adjustment of prevention and control measures.Methods:The incidence data of malaria, case investigation data and case review data by Shandong Provincial Reference Laboratory for Malaria Diagnosis from 2017 to 2018 were collected. Software SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical analysis and software QGIS 2.18 was used for mapping.Results:A total of 442 imported cases of malaria were reported in Shandong from 2017 to 2018, and the main infection source was in Africa (97.96%, 433/442). All the 17 prefectures in Shandong reported imported malaria cases, mainly in Jining (88 cases), Yantai (65 cases), Weihai (46 cases), Qingdao (44 cases) and Dezhou (42 cases), accounting for 64.48% (285/442). The cases were distributed in 77.37%(106/137) of counties of the province. The cases were reported in every month without seasonal characteristics. The median ( M) of time interval between onset and the first medical care seeking was 2 days, and the interquartile range ( IQR) was 3 days. The M of time interval between the first medical care seeking and final diagnosis was 0 day, and the IQR was 3 days. The proportion of medical care seeking on onset day was only 27.83% (123/442). Only 69.68% (308/442) of cases were diagnosed with malaria in the first medical care seeking, and the diagnostic accuracy of medical institutions below the county level was lower than other medical institutions (all P<0.01). Only 51.13% (226/442) of cases were diagnosed with malaria in the first medical care seeking, the differences in the rates among medical institutions at different levels were not significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The imported malaria in Shandong was characterized by a large number of cases, multiple infection sources and wide area distribution during 2017-2018. The awareness of timely medical care seeking in the cases was low, meanwhile the awareness and ability of malaria diagnosis and treatment in primary medical institutions were still inadequate. It is necessary to adjust the prevention and control measures accordingly.

Objective To observe the value of MSCT in diagnosis of gastrointestinal foreign bodies and the resulting gastrointestinal perforations.Methods MSCT and clinical data of 30 patients with gastrointestinal foreign bodies,including 17 with gastrointestinal perforations were reviewed retrospectively.The location,morphology,density of foreign bodies,and the performances of gastrointestinal perforations were observed.Results All gastrointestinal foreign bodies could be displayed by MSCT in 30 patients.Toothpicks were the most common type of foreign bodies (12/30,40.00％),followed by fish bones (5/30,16.67％),jujube nuclei (3/30,10.00％),chicken bones (2/30,6.67％) and so on.Foreign bodies were found in small intestine in 15 patients (15/30,50.00％),in stomach in 7 (7/30,23.33％),in colon in 6 (6/30,20.00％) and in ileocecus in 2 patients (2/30,6.67％).High density foreign bodies were demonstrated on abdominal X-ray films in 11 patients (11/30,36.7 ％).Gastrointestinal perforations caused by toothpicks,fishbones and other sharp objects were observed in 14 patients (14/17,82.35 ％).Intestinal wall edema,peripheral exudation,foreign bodies "cross through the intestinal wall" and the surrounding small bubbles were found in perforation site or nearby.Conclusion MSCT can comprehensively display the location,shape and associated changes of gastrointestinal foreign bodies,with important diagnostic value for gastrointestinal perforations.

According 1o the genome sequences of α.β,e,ι toxins of Clostridium perfringens in GenBank,four pairs of primers targeting α,β,ε,ι toxin genes were designed.After the multiplex PCR reaction condition was optimized,the multiplex PCR for identification and toxintyping of C.perfringens strains was developed.The specificity test showed that the expected fragments of C.perfringens reference strains including A.B,C,D,E five toxin types were amplified successfully from genomic DNA of C.perfringens,respectively.However,a band could not be amplified from Clostidrium novyi and Clostridium septicum as negative control groups.The sensitivity test showed that the limit detection of multiplex PCR was 9.0,17.8,12.2,13.8,18.5 pg DNA of A,B,C,D,E five toxin types C.perfringens,respectively.Repetitive testing showed that the established method had a good repeatability.Nine type A strains of and 1 type C strains of C.Perfringens from 21 clinical samples of dead goat were detected by the multiplex PCR developed in this study.This study establishes the multiple PCR method which not only can detect C.perfringens rapidly but also can identify five toxin types of C.perfringens.

Objective To explore the relationship between the soil components along the areas of the east route of the South?to?North Water Diversion Project and the survival situation of Oncomelania hupensis snails. Methods Four study sites were se?lected along the project,and soil samples were collected to analyze the components. The amounts of components among the dif?ferent study sites were compared statistically. Results Except zinc,sodium,and phosphorus,the contents of the soil compo?nents where the snails survived were different from those where snails were dead(t=-19.150 to 12.810,all P<0.01). Howev?er,the logistic regression analysis did not obtain a model with statistical significance. Conclusions O. hupensis snails live in the soil with adequate organic matter and neutral pH value. Along with the global warming and the operation of the South?to?North Water Diversion Project,O. hupensis snails may survive in the northern area,and therefore,the surveillance work should be strengthened.

Objective To explore the association between malaria epidemic situation and some natural and social factors in high?incidence areas of Shandong Province,so as to provide evidences for malaria elimination in these areas. Methods Twenty towns of 10 counties(cities,districts,)in the high incidence areas of malaria in Shandong Province were selected as the study sites,and the residents in the study sites were investigated by questionnaires with one household as a unit,so as to understand the related natural and social factors. In addition,the malaria epidemic data in the study sites from 2006 to 2010 were collected, and the correlation between these factors and the epidemic situation of malaria was analyzed by Spearman rank correlation and multiple stepwise regression. Results The square root of malaria incidence rate(Y)was negatively related to the rate of house?holds using insecticide(X3),and the rate of households using screen doors and windows(X4)(both P<0.05),but was positive?ly related to the rate of housing surrounding water environment and exposure ratio(X6)(both P<0.05). The regression equa?tion established was Y=0.032X5+0.048X6-0.495,R2=0.973. Conclusions Malaria incidence is obviously associated with some natural and social factors. The measures such as clearing the breeding place of mosquito,protecting the exposure popula?tion at nightfall,as well as using door?window screen and repellents correctly,can effectively control malaria.

Objective To understand the malaria epidemic situation and characteristics in Shandong Province in 2014,so as to provide evidences for taking targeted strategies and measures for malaria elimination. Methods The data of malaria epi?demic and malaria cases of Shandong Province in 2014 were collected from Information Management System for Infectious Dis?eases Report and Information Management System for Parasitic Diseases Control and Prevention. The epidemiological character?istics of malaria situation and the diagnosis and treatment of malaria cases were analyzed by Microsoft Excel 2007. Results A total of 150 malaria cases were reported in Shandong Province in 2014,which increased by 14.50% compared with that in 2013 (131 cases). All the cases were imported from other countries except one imported from Yunnan Province in China,and most of the imported cases were from Africa(142 cases,95.30%). All the cases were confirmed in Shandong Provincial Reference Labo?ratory and there were 121 cases(80.67%)infected with Plasmodium falciparum,16 cases(10.67%)infected with P. vivax,9 cases(6.00%)infected with P. ovale and 4 cases(2.67%)infected with P. malariae. The cases were mainly distributed in Tai’ an(40 cases,26.67%),Yantai(17 cases,11.33%),Weihai(13 cases,8.67%),Jining(11 cases,7.33%)and Heze(11 cases,7.33%)cities. Conclusions There have been no local malaria cases reported in Shandong Province in the continuous 3 years. However,the reported number of imported malaria cases shows an increasing trend in the province in recent years,and the species of infected Plasmodium are diverse. Imported malaria from other countries is the key of malaria control in Shandong Province at present.
