[ infection in Nanjing City from 2015 to 2016].

Objective: To investigate the status of infection in the population in Nanjing City so as to provide the evidence for the prevention and control of cryptosporidiosis.

Methods: A total of 100 fecal samples were collected from each of three districts (Liuhe, Qixia and Gaochun) and one hospital (Nanjing Zhongda Hospital) in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The fecal samples were detected for with microscopy (by using the gold amine phenol-modified acid-fast staining) and the positive samples were detected again for the molecular biology confirming by using the fluorescence quantitative PCR.

[Survey of schistosomiasis KAP and influencing factors of behaviors among residents in Jiangsu Province].

Objective: To understand the schistosomiasis control knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP), and influencing factors of behaviors among residents in Jiangsu Province, so as to provide the evidence for making effective health education and health promotion models.

Methods: The probability proportionate to size sampling (PPS) and multi-stage sampling methods were adopted to sample the research objects. A questionnaire survey of schistosomiasis control KAP was conducted in the residents of 16 to 69 years old in schistosomiasis endemic areas of Jiangsu Province, and the results were statistically analyzed.

[Comparison of development between single sexual infection and double sexual infection in mice and rabbits].

Objective: To observe the development of after single sexual infection and double sexual infection respectively.

Methods: A single snail was infected by a single schistosome miracidium. The larva were induced and released from the snail after 60-day incubation at 26 ℃.

[Automatic microscopic scanning system in etiological diagnosis of schistosomiasis].

Objective: To apply the automatically microscopic scanning system in the etiological diagnosis of schistosomiasis, as an alternative to the traditional manual microscopy detection, and improve the detection rates and efficiency of examinations of fecal slides.

Methods: A single-blind method was used throughout the process of both the automatic microscopic scanning system and traditional manual microscopy reading. Each of five professionals read 20 Kato-Katz manure piece samples.

[Experimental study on compatibility of three species of freshwater snails with Angiostrongylus cantonensis].

Objective: To compare the compatibility of three species of freshwater snails, Pomacea canaliculata, Cipangopaludina chinensis, Bellamy a aeruginosa, with Angiostrongylus cantonensis.

Methods: The snails were infected by the first-stage larvae of A. cantonensis under the same conditions.

The effect of temperature on the development of Angiostrongylus cantonensis (Chen 1935) in Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck 1822).

Angiostrongyliasis cantonensis, clinically presented as eosinophilic meningitis, is a snail-borne parasitic disease. We studied the effects of different temperatures on the larval development of Angiostrongylus cantonensis in the freshwater snail Pomacea canaliculata. Six groups of snails were infected and each group was cultured under different temperature conditions.

[Studies on susceptibility of Pomacea canaliculata of different developmental stages to infection with Angiostrongylus cantonensis].

Unlabelled: OBJECTIVE To study the susceptibility of Pomacea canaliculata of different developmental stages to Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection.

Methods: P. canaliculata snails breeding at laboratory were divided into four rank (I-IV) according to the weight, and infected with the first stage larvae of A.
