简介:目的了解广东省梅州市2012-2017年腹泻患者中诺如病毒(norovirus,NV)和轮状病毒(rotavirus,RV)的感染情况和流行趋势。方法采集梅州市监测门诊中'腹泻病例'的粪便标本和/或呕吐物标本3066份,采用实时荧光定量PCR法开展NV(GI、GII)核酸检测与RV抗原检测。结果检出NV和RV阳性823份,总阳性率为26.84%,其中NV阳性率为13.24%,RV阳性率为13.60%;2012-2017年连续检测显示NV阳性率呈波动趋势,RV阳性率呈逐年下降趋势;NV和RV感染具有季节性,高峰期分别在10-11月和1-2月。不同年龄组之间差异有统计学意义,且5岁及以下年龄组为主要感染对象。结论梅州市病毒性腹泻病原NV和RV在全年各月份均有检出,以冬春季为感染高峰。阳性率总体有所下降但仍需引起关注,继续加强监测,以减少疾病的流行。
简介:摘要目的分析溧阳市2012年—2016年结核病流行病学特征,掌握影响结核病发病的因素,为结核病防控工作提供科学依据。方法对溧阳市2012年—2016年结核病疫情资料进行描述性流行病学分析。结果溧阳市2012年—2016年累计报告肺结核1506例,5年肺结核报告平均发病率38.18/10万,各年度发病率差异有统计学意义(χ2=9.53,P<0.05)。男女发病相对比为3.251,男性和女性肺结核患者5年平均发病率分别为57.59/10万和18.09/10万。发病例数最多的是45岁~年龄组,占15.67%,其次是55岁~年龄组和15岁~年龄组,分别占15.27%和14.81%。职业以农民为主,占55.51%。7~9月份的秋季为发病高峰,发病人数占总发病人数的29.28%,3~4月份为发病小高峰,发病人数占总发病人数的18.73%。5年登记平均肺结核发病率较高的为社渚和溧城,常州监狱、溧阳监狱中5年登记平均肺结核发病率亦较高。结论近年来溧阳市肺结核防控工作得到重视,防治措施落实有效。溧阳地区青壮年外出就业者居多有关,社会活动频繁,暴露机会较大。青少年内分泌系统变化大、学习压力大、身体锻炼少、对营养要求高,增加了感染风险。应关注本市外出就业人群及初高中学生的肺结核防控工作。监狱内肺结核高发,应高度重视监狱等人群高度聚集环境中的肺结核防控工作。
