@#Abstract: Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province from 2004 to 2021, to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control strategies. Methods The data on outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province from 2004 to 2021 from the National Emergency Public Health Events Information Management System and on-site epidemiological surveys were collected and analyzed using descriptive epidemiology method. Results From 2004 to 2021, a total of 1 806 outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province was reported. The majority of the reports were of general events (90.25%), affecting 2 183 493 people with reported cases numbering 94 643 and 13 deaths. The main modes of transmission were respiratory infectious diseases. The top three reported diseases were chickenpox (588), influenza (300) and hand-foot-and-mouth disease (267), accounting for 64.0% of the total reported events. The events were distributed in 121 counties and districts throughout the province, concentrated in March–June and September–January of the following year. The main outbreaks were of chickenpox, with an average duration of 19 days. Most public health emergencies (1 386) occurred in kindergartens and primary schools, and the median time to discover the outbreak was 7 days (ranging from 4 to 13 days). Conclusions Respiratory infectious diseases are the main type of outbreak of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province. Kindergartens and primary schools are the focus of prevention and control. Early reporting and effective handling will help control the spread of events and reduce hazards. At the same time, the prevention and control of school infectious diseases and the emergency drill of the plan during peak periods need to be particularly strengthened.

Objective:To analyze the incidence of brucellosis and the genotypes of Brucella isolates or nucleic acids in Shaanxi Province, to get the epidemiological and molecular genetic characteristics, and to provide scientific basis for precise prevention and control of human brucellosis. Methods:Log into the Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System, collect the incidence data of human brucellosis of Shaanxi Province in 2020, and analyze the epidemiological characteristics. Bacteriology and PCR methods were used to identify the isolates or nucleic acids, and multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) was used for molecular typing. BioNumerics (Version 7.6) software was used to analyze the results of MLVA.Results:In 2020, 1 086 cases of human brucellosis were reported in Shaanxi Province, the incidence rate was 2.80/100 000, involving 86 counties (districts), the epidemic peak was from March to September (865 cases), male-to-female ratio was 2.68 ∶ 1.00 (791 ∶ 295), 79.74% (866 cases) in the age group of 30 to 69 years old, and 83.43% (906 cases) of the cases were farmers. Biotype identification of 36 isolates showed that 4 isolates were mutant Brucella melitensis, 3 isolates were Brucella melitensis 1 and 29 isolates were Brucella melitensis 3. The 36 isolates and 7 nucleic acids were identified as Brucella by BCSP31-PCR and Brucella melitensis by AMOS-PCR. MLVA-16 genotyping, panel1 showed two genotypes: type 42 (1-5-3-13-2-2-3-2) and type 63 (1-5-3-13-2-3-3-2), panel2A showed 4-41-8 and panel2B showed high variability. Thirty-six isolates and 7 nucleic acids were divided into 33 genotypes, of which 27 genotypes were single isolates and 6 genotypes were shared. Conclusions:The situation of human brucellosis prevention and control in Shaanxi Province is grim. MLVA-16 is a mature genotyping method, which determines the existence of multiple genotypes of Brucella isolates or nucleic acids in Shaanxi Province, which can provide scientific information for precise prevention and control of human brucellosis, outbreak analysis and epidemiological traceability.

Objective To investigate the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of crayfish associated rhabdomyolysis syndrome in Baiyun District, Guangzhou, and explore the related factors, and to provide evidence for the prevention of crayfish rhabdomyolysis syndrome. Methods The cases of crawfish associated rhabdomyolysis syndrome were found through the foodborne disease surveillance and reporting system, and a field epidemiological investigation was carried out to analyze the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of the cases. Results A total of 25 cases of crayfish associated rhabdomyolysis syndrome occurred in 2020. The intake of crayfish of the cases ranged from 5 to 25, the incubation period was 1 to 9.5h, and the interval from onset to medical treatment was 0.17 to 9h. All the cases had muscle pain, and the content of creatine kinase (CK) in the cases increased to varying degrees (128-17851 U/L). Retrospective cohort analysis of 10 crayfish events found no correlation between the consumption of different parts of crayfish and the incidence of crayfish-related rhabdomyolysis syndrome. Conclusion The incidence of rhabdomyolysis syndrome reported in Baiyun District of Guangzhou is related to the consumption of crayfish, but the pathogenic factors need to be further studied. It is suggested to strengthen the supervision of crayfish breeding, transportation, sales, and processing to ensure the health of consumers.

Herpes simplex virus type 1 ( HSV-1 ) commonly causes orolabial ulcers. However, HSV-1 has become an increasing cause of genital infection in recent years and found to have close relation-ship associated with Alzheimer′s disease. HSV infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted dis-eases. It has been received renewed attention in recent years, due to improvements in the understanding of the epidemiological synergy between HSV and other severe diseases, including HIV, sexually transmitted in-fections, and even neurocognitive impairment. In the context of global renewed attention and responses to HSV infection, we summarize the epidemic of HSV infection at home and abroad in this review, to provide an overview of the data available on HSV infections situation, trends and responses.

PURPOSE: There are limited population-based data regarding herpes zoster in children. Thus we conducted a multi-institutional epidemiological analysis of herpes zoster in children and comparative analysis according to their immune status. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 126 children under the age of 18 years who were hospitalized for herpes zoster at 8 hospitals in South Korea, between July 2009 and June 2015. The subjects were divided into 2 groups according to their immune status, and medical records were reviewed. RESULTS: There were 61 cases (48.4%) in the immunocompetent group and 65 cases (51.6%) in the immunocompromised group. Median age was older in immunocompromised group (11.4 vs. 8.6) (p<0.001). The mean duration of hospitalization was longer in immunocompromised group (11.0 vs. 6.6) (p<0.001). Patients were treated with oral or intravenous antiviral agents. A total of 12 in immunocompetent group were cured only by oral acyclovir. No treatment failure was found in both groups. Six immunocompromised patients had postherpetic neuralgia and 1 case was in immunocompetent group. In immunocompetent children, herpes zoster was likely caused by early varicella infection. There was no increase in progression of severity in both groups due to appropriate treatment. CONCLUSION: Early initiation of therapy is necessary for those in immunocompromised conditions. And inactivated herpes zoster vaccination may be considered in immunocompromised adolescents in the future.

Objective To investigate the genetic variation and epidemiological characteristics of influenza B virus in Xinxiang to provide policy basis for local influenza vaccination. Methods The influenza surveillance data in Xinxiang from January 2012 to February 2019 was analyzed. 23 isolated influenza B virus were randomly selected for hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) gene sequencing. Sequence alignment was conducted by using DNAman software and phylogenetic tree analysis was conducted using Neighbor-Joining method. Results Yamagata (BY) and Victoria (BV) strains of influenza B virus circulated alternately every other year in Xinxiang, mainly among people aged 0-15 years (91.4%). The dominant influenza B lineages from 2015 to 2016 and from 2017 to 2018 did not match the corresponding trivalent vaccine strain of the year. The HA phylogenetic tree revealed that 87.5% (7/8) of BV strains coexisted with the vaccine strain in one branch, while 88.98% (8/9) of BY strains from 2013 to 2015 were not in the same branch as the corresponding vaccine strain, with 5 epitope site mutions N116K, S150L, N165Y, D196N and N202S. No drug-resistant site mutation was identified in the NA gene. A total of 6 intra-lineage reassortants were identified. Conclusions The influenza B lineage in the trivalent vaccine recommended by WHO did not match the dominant circulating B lineage of Xinxiang in some epidemic year. Therefore, quadrivalent vaccines are recommended to use in susceptible population, especially under the age of 15. In addition, there are large variations in HA gene of the epidemic BY strain compared with the corresponding vaccine. Then, a vaccine more sutable for the epidemic strains in China is expected to be developed.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of malaria and to discover the regularity of malaria outbreaks in Nanchang City from 1950 to 2015, so as to provide a scientific basis for developing control strategies after the goal of malaria elimination has been achieved. Method Malaria related data, report forms and work summary in Nanchang from 1950 to 2015 were collected and analyzed to indicate malaria distribution characteristics via the descriptive epidemiological methods. Results The total number of malaria cases reported in Nanchang City was 1449878 from 1950 to 2015. The particular years with the three peaks of malaria epidemic from 1950s to 1970s were 1954, 1970 and 1977. The climax of annual mean incidence rate of malaria (6948.75 per 100 thousand) was reached in 1970. Totally 1449739 local recurrence cases were reported between 1950 and 1999. There were 484292 local recurrence cases (accounting for 68.80%, 484292/703911) that were diagnosed in the malaria epidemic seasons, May to August. There were 44931, 25684, 22614 and 5842 cases reported in Nanchang County, Xinjian County, Jinxian County and Qingshanhu District, which ranked the top 4 of epidemic focus areas ( accounting for 90 . 65%, 99071/109293) between 1980 and 1989. The 13245 cases reported between 1972 and 1985 in the three county/districts (Jinxian County, Xihu District and Wanli District), included 8513 cases of male and 4732 cases of female. The 126 cases reported between 2005 and 2015, included 122 imported cases who were mostly returnees after overseas labor output and 57 falciparum malaria cases with a increasing trend year by year. There was no correlation between the seasonal change and the occurrence of malaria. Conclusions The comprehensive prevention and control measures based on eliminating the source of infection can effectively control the epidemic of malaria. It is suggested that the surveillance on imported falciparum malaria cases should be the focus in prevention and control of the disease at the late-stage because the epidemiological characteristics of local malaria cases have died out completely.
