[Analysis of endemic situation of schistosomiasis based on geographic information system (GIS) in Wuhan City in 2017].

Objective: To analyze the endemic sitaution of schistosomiasis based on geographic information system (GIS) in Wuhan City in 2017, so as to provide the reference for further schistosomiasis control activities.

Methods: According to the data of the annual report on the prevention and control of schistosomiasis in Wuhan City in 2017, the spatial database regarding the endemic situation of schistosomiasis was established and analyzed by ArcMap 10.2.

[Practice of engineering management and its effect on schistosomiasis control in Hankou marshland, Wuhan City].

Objective: To investigate the snail control effect of schistosomiasis control engineering in marshland within Wuhan City.

Methods: The engineering measures including surface barrier removal, molluscicide, flatting surface, topsoil stripping, topsoil covering and ditch renovation were applied to transform Hankou marshland. Then the corresponding technical parameters of engineering measures were put forward.

[Investigation of Capillaria hepatica infection in rodents from Wuhan section of Yangtze River marshland].

Objective: To understand the prevalence of Capillaria hepatica in rodents from Wuhan section of the Yangtze River marshland.

Methods: Rodents were trapped in Jiang'an section of Wuhan marshland of the Yangtze River. The livers of the rodents were examined for pathological changes by unaided eyes and the liver tissues were examined for the eggs of C.

[Surveillance and forecast of schistosomiasis based on sentinel mouse technique in key water regions of Wuhan City in 2011].

Objective: To understand the water infectivity of schistosome in key water regions of Wuhan City and explore the role of a sentinel mouse technique on surveillance and forecast system for schistosomiasis.

Methods: Schistosome-endemic areas of the Yangtze River, the Dongjing-Tongshun River system, the Fu-Lun River system and the Jinshui River of Wuhan City were chosen as the surveillance and forecast sites. The Oncomelania snail distribution and infection were surveyed before the flood season.
