ABSTRACT
Objective:By analyzing the epidemiological characteristics of brucellosis in Shanxi Province, to provide scientific evidence of strategies for effective prevention and control of the disease.Methods:Surveillance data of human brucellosis from "Infectious Disease Report Information Management System" from 2008 to 2017 were statistically analyzed by descriptive epidemiological method. The time, regional and occupational distribution of brucellosis were analyzed.Results:A total of 54 845 cases of brucellosis occurred in Shanxi Province from 2008 to 2017. The average annual incidence was 15.37/100 000, fluctuated from 8.34/100 000 to 23.53/100 000. One death case was reported in 2015. The highest incidence was 23.53/100 000 in 2014 and the lowest reported incidence was 8.34/100 000 in 2017. Regional distribution range relatively focused on the north areas of Shanxi Province, the number of reported cases of Datong City was the largest (13 998 cases), accounting for 25.52%. The reported incidence of Shuozhou City was the highest (49.68/100 000). The disease was found each month throughout the year, the obvious incidence peak seasons were between March and July, accounting for 60.11% (32 966/54 845).The disease was most commonly found in 40-64 age groups (64.73%, 35 502/54 845). Occupational distribution of patients was mainly farmers (82.97%, 45 504/54 845).Conclusions:The epidemiology tendency of brucellosis in Shanxi Province is relatively controlled comparing with previous period, but even highly active in some local areas. The epidemic situation has spreading in both scope and population. It is necessary to carry out the propaganda of the protection knowledge of brucellosis in the key groups and enhance the self-protection consciousness of high-risk groups.
ABSTRACT
Objective By analyzing the epidemiological characteristics of brucellosis in Shanxi Province,to provide a scientific basis in formulation of strategies for effective prevention and control of the disease.Method Surveillance data of human brucellosis from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention between 2004 and 2013 were statistically analyzed by descriptive epidemiological method.The regional,time,age and sex,occupational distribution of brucellosis were analyzed.The prevalence trend of brucellosis in Shanxi Province was summarized.Results From 2004 to 2013,the total incidence presented a rising tendency and the highest reported incidence was 19.10/10 million in 2013.A total of 43 061 cases of brucellosis occurred in Shanxi Province.The average incidence of brucellosis was 12.52/10 million.Regional distribution range was relatively focused on the north areas of Shanxi Province,the number of reported cases of Datong City was the largest (12 157 cases),being 28.23％.The incidence of Shuozhou City was the highest (42.97/10 million).The epidemic was spreading through all county areas.The disease was found each month throughout the year,the obvious incidence peak seasons were between March and June.The disease was most commonly found in 15-64 age groups(87.19％,37 545/43 061).Occupation distribution of patients was mainly farmers (83.34％,35 887/43 061).Conclusions The situation of brucellosis epidemic in Shanxi Province is relatively serious;the reported incidence of brucellosis in Shanxi Province is in a rapid upward trend year by year,even highly active in some particular areas.Different regions should establish regional mechanisms for joint prevention and control and implement different prevention and control measures to comprehensively and sequentially control brucellosis.
