RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo perform the analysis of influenza surveillance in Dehong from 2016 to 2020 and determine the epidemic situation of influenza and prevalent virus strains， so as to provide evidence for local influenza prevention and control. MethodsThe influenza surveillance data in Dehong Prefecture was collected from January 2016 to December 2020. Statistical analysis was conducted by descriptive epidemiological methods. ResultsA total of 4 146 samples from influenza-like illness cases were examined. The 502 specimens tested positive for influenza virus， including 311 cases with influenza A virus and 136 cases with influenza B virus， resulting in a positive rate of 12.11%. The positive rate was the highest in 2017， followed by 2019， and the lowest in 2020 （P < 0.05）. It peaked in winter and fall. Furthermore， it was the lowest among children aged 0‒4 years and the highest among adults aged 25‒59 （P < 0.001）. In addition， positive rate did not differ significantly by gender（P>0.05） ConclusionThe positive rate of influenza has decreased in Dehong since January 2020. The influenza epidemic is seasonal， mainly in fall and winter， except 2020. Influenza A virus is predominant， compared to alternating influenza B virus.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the accessibility of HIV-related public health services among cross-border couples living in Dehong Prefecture and age differences. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among cross-border couples in Dehong Prefecture from January 2017 to July 2019. Results In total, 32 182 participants were included. The proportion of people who had received HIV testing services, HIV-related intervention services in past year, care and help in the past year, and participated in new rural cooperative medical services (NCMS) were 57.8%, 92.7%, 6.5% and 94.5%, respectively; and the latter three services were significantly different across age groups (P<0.001). In multivariable Logistic regression model, variables significantly associated with having ever received HIV testing services older age (51-85 years: OR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.63-0.81), women (OR=1.14, 95% CI:1.03-1.25), county/city (Longchuan: OR=6.30, 95% CI: 5.72-6.93; Lianghe: OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.44; Yingjiang: OR=0.88, 95% CI: 0.82-0.94), Dai ethnic minority (OR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.50-1.72), marriage registration (marriage registration for border inhabitants: OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.56-0.65; non-registration: OR=0.66, 95% CI: 0.62-0.70), years of marriage (4-5 years: OR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.12-1.31; 6-60 years: OR=1.30, 95%CI:1.22-1.39), having not received care and help in the past year (OR=0.64, 95% CI: 0.58-0.71) and having not participated in NCMS (OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.52-0.65). Conclusions The accessibility to HIV-related public health services are relatively high among cross-border couples in Dehong Prefecture. However, the relatively low proportion of receiving AIDS testing services, particularly among certain groups and counties/cities, need to be strengthened.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate liver injury in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection in Dehong Prefecture,Yunnan Province.Methods A total of 4 784 HIV-infected patients were enrolled in this study.Baseline aspartate aminotransferase (AST),alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and AST-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) before HIV treatment were collected to analyze the relationship between HCV infection and liver injury.Data were analyzed by x2 test and nonparametric rank sum test when appropriate.Risk factors for liver injury were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results Totally 4 784 patients were included,of which 30.2％ (1 447/ 4 784) were anti-HCV positive,41.7％ (1 996/4 784) had liver dysfunction and 13.3％ (636/4 784) had liver cirrhosis.Prevalence of liver dysfunction (61.1％,821/1 343) and cirrhosis (24.1 ％,323/1 343) were significantly higher among anti-HCV-positive patients than anti-HCV-negative patients (31.5％,974/3 092,X2=341.223,P＜0.01;7.5％,231/3 092,X2=235.457,P＜0.01,respectively).Multivariate Logistic regression showed that anti-HCV-positive patients suffered significantly higher risk of liver dysfunction (OR=1.99,95％ CI:1.66-2.37) and liver cirrhosis (OR=2.41,95％CI:1.90-3.04).Conclusion Patients with HCV/HIV in Dehong Prefecture coinfection had a higher risk for liver injury.
