ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the participation of ethnic minorities in voluntary blood donation, so as to provide research basis for understanding and promoting blood donation of local ethnic minorities, and further improve the participation rate of ethnic minorities in voluntary blood donation. 【Methods】 The information management system of our blood station was used to statistically analyze the blood donors of ethnic minorities in our station from 2019 to 2021. 【Results】 A total of 41 ethnic minorities participated in blood donation in our station, with a total participation rate of 44.63%, of which Yi(15.45%) and Hani(12.88%) were relatively high. The blood donors were mainly 18~45 years old; the male to female ratio of ethnic minorities is 0.94∶1; the majority were female blood donors. In the past two years, the proportion of ethnic minorities participating in voluntary blood donors had increased significantly. 【Conclusion】 In ethnic minority dominated areas, there is a large space and potential to mobilize and develop ethnic minorities to participate in voluntary blood donation. Maintaining the young blood donors and formulating strategies suitable for ethnic minority areas are conducive to the sustainable development of voluntary blood donation in ethnic minority areas.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the status of Toxoplasma gondii infection in the population of Pu er City so as to pro-vide the evidence for formulating the strategy of toxoplasmosis control. Methods The population from Jingdong Jinggu and Menglian counties in Pu er City was surveyed IgG of T. gondii in serum was detected by ELISA. Results Totally 906 resident serum samples were detected and the IgG positive rate was 24.2%. The positive rates were higher in the aged groups of 30-39 years and 60-69 years and the difference among different aged groups was significant χ2=17.77 P 0.01 . There were no si-gnificant differences between different sexualities and among different educational levels and living habits P 0.05 . The posi-tive rates were 26.6% 194/730 15.5% 22/142 and 8.8% 3/34 in farmers students and other occupations respectively and there was a significant difference among them χ2=12.51 P 0.01 . The positive rates were 23.3% 198/849 and 36.8%21/57 in the farmers who had the habit of rearing pigs in pens and the farmers who had the habit of free ranging pigs respec-tively and there was a significant difference between them χ2=5.33 P 0.05 . Conclusion The IgG positive rate of T. go-ndii is very high in Pu er City and therefore the health education for toxoplasmosis control should be strengthened.
