Objective: To investigate the spatial distribution of snail habitats at the administrative village scale in schistosomiasis-endemic areas of Hubei Province, so as to provide scientific bases for precise control of snails in the province.

Methods: Data regarding snail distribution at the village level in Hubei Province in 2017 were collected to create a spatial analysis database of snail distribution in Hubei Province. The spatial aggregations of distribution were analyzed using Moran's index and Local Moran's index.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of a comprehensive approach to control schistosomiasis by removing cattle and sheep in Juanshan District, Yueyang City.
  • Data was collected over a decade (2006-2016) regarding infection rates in humans, cattle, sheep, and snails, along with the costs of the control measures.
  • Results showed a significant drop in infection rates among residents from 3.44% in 2006 to 0% in 2016, with varying annual prevention costs, ultimately concluding that this strategy is cost-effective and could be applied to similar regions.

China's prevention and control of parasitic diseases has made remarkable achievements. However, the prevalence and transmission of parasitic diseases is impacted by the complicated natural and social factors of environment, natural disasters, population movements, and so on. Therefore, there are still the risks of the outbreak of emergency parasitic diseases affairs, which may affect the control effectiveness of parasitic diseases and endanger the social stability seriously.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze the snail situation related to schistosomiasis in Hubei Province over a six-year period, from 2009 to 2014.
  • Data from 207 endemic villages were collected, revealing a significant decline in both the density of living snails and infected snails during this timeframe.
  • Despite this reduction, the surrounding environment still supports snail breeding, indicating the need for ongoing control measures like mollusciciding to maintain the progress made.

In practical water environmental planning, the influence of the non-linear characteristics on the benefit of environmental investment was seldom taken into consideration. This paper demonstrates that there exist a lot of non-linear behaviors in water environment by emphatically analyzing the influence of the non-linear characteristics of the economic scale, the meandering river and the model on water environmental planning, which will make a certain impact on the water environmental planning that sometimes cannot be neglected. This paper also preliminarily explores how to integrate the non-linear characteristics into water environmental planning.
