RESUMO
Objective To study the epidemiologic characteristics of influenza in Gansu province of China and to optimize the related vaccination program.Methods Weekly influenza surveillance data from the first week of 2010 to the fortieth week of 2016 were collected,in Gansu province.x2 test was used to compare the differences of nucleic acid positive rate and the virus types in the four seasons.Time series seasonal decomposition (TSSD) was used to explore seasonal patterns and characteristics of influenza epidemics in Gansu.Results 59 791 specimens were tested,with 8 501 positive for influenza virus and positive rates as 14.22％.Types A(H1N1)pdm09,A(H3N2) and type B were accounted for 98.76％ of all the positive specimens.Proportions of the positive rate of influenza virus appeared in spring,summer,autumn and winter were 15.12％,0.98％,4.02％ and 24.26％ respectively.The predominant type of virus in autumn and winter was A(H3N2),with B mainly in spring.Influenza in Gansu province showed typical single-peak type distribution,with epidemic peak appeared from December to next January.The type A(H3N2) related peak appeared the earliest,followed by A(H1N1)pdm09,with type B the latest.Conclusions Peaks and the duration of influenza seasonal epidemics were related to the types of dominant strains.Annual influenza vaccination campaigns should start in October,to provide effective protection during the epidemic period.
RESUMO
Objective@#To understand the contamination status of avian influenza virus H5, H7, and H9 in environmental samples in Gansu province during 2015, and provide scientific guidance for the prevention and control of human infection with AIV in the province.@*Methods@#We detected the AIV nucleic acid of 2015 environmental samples with real-time PCR; the samples were collected from all of the monitoring points in the whole province, then we analyzed the result of environmental monitoring of pathogens in the province.@*Results@#The detection rates of FluA, H5, H7 and H9 were 19.90%, 0.05%, 0 and 19.65% respectively. The sample specific detection rate of FluA was the highest in wipe specimen of the board surface of slaughtering or placing poultry (31.09%) and the lowest in stool specimens (13.85%). FluA detection rate was the highest in December and the lowest in June and July(8.59% and 8.66%). The detection rate of Dingxi city and Longnan city of nucleic acid of avian influenza virus FluA and H9 were significantly higher than those in other cities in the province(χ2=4.523~88.059, P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#The main AIV pollution of the external environment in Gansu province in 2015 were the H9 subtype, and there was no H7N9 positive, we should strengthen the monitoring and early warning for avian influenza.

RESUMO
Objective To improve the nutritional knowledge and dietary habit of medical students in Lanzhou region for their health.Methods A self-designed survey of nutritional knowledge,attitude,and practice(KAP)was made on 329 medical students in Lanzhou region,with a subsequent nutritional education given to 195 volunteers in the form of lectures,consulting,publicizing materials issuing,among other things.An analysis was made on the effect of the nutritional education using the relevant KAP's self-comparision prior and subsequent to the nutritional education and using the students' response to the nutritional education.Results Before the education,the students in question scored 42.27?8.29 on knowledge,14.29?1.93 on attitude,and 16.39?2.17 on practice.After the education,the three scores rose to 46.52?6.78,15.20?0.98,and 18.39?2.17 respectively,and the students tended to acquire nutritional knowledge through ways of more variety.Their correct dietary practice increased by 15.75%.Their demand for nutritional knowledge became increasingly diversified,a case of which was that their demand for prevention knowledge of malnutrition rose by 20.75%.Through the education,the students in question had an obvious change in their dietary knowledge,attitude,and practice.Conclusions Giving nutritional knowledge education to the medical students in Lanzhou region in a flexible way has a good effect.Their healthful dietary practice should be intensified simultaneously with the improvement of their nutritional knowledge.
