  • Spatiotemporal distribution and influencing factors of enteric fever in China

    Open AccessShu‐mei Huang, Shumei Huang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Background: Enteric fever primarily affects the southwestern and central regions of China. Although the overall incidence rate has declined, certain areas have seen an increase in cases, necessitating further investigation into their geographic distribution, clustering areas, and potential influencing factors. Methods: City-level data from 2001 to 2020 were analyzed. Spatial clustering was identified, and wavelet transform analysis explored perio…

  • Status and analysis of undetected plague cases in Yunnan Province, China

    Open AccessChao Su, Biao Duan et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024

    Background The virulence of Yersinia pestis strains in the Rattus flavipectus plague focus is relatively low. The purpose of this study was to investigate the undetected, sporadic plague cases in plague foci and provide the basis for plague prevention and control. Methods A 3-year-old plague-confirmed case was investigated in the R. flavipectus plague focus of Yunnan Province in 2020 due to the intensive screening for fever symptoms during the co…

  • A Household-Based Cross-Sectional Survey of Knowledge, Awareness and Practice Regarding Malaria in Western Area Rural District, Sierra Leone

    Open AccessLili Wang, Jianhai Yin et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    Sierra Leone is a highly endemic area for malaria, and the implementation of the National Malaria Strategic Plan (2016–2020) has reached its midpoint in 2018. To provide more specific guidance for interventions in the future, a household-based cross-sectional survey was conducted to elucidate the knowledge, awareness and practices regarding malaria and malarial control measures among the general public. Three communities (Grafton, Jui, and Kossoh…

  • Capacity assessment of the health laboratory system in two resource-limited provinces in China

    Open AccessBo Liu, Fang Ma et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Laboratories in Guangxi and Guizhou are generally performing well in laboratory capacity as required by IHR. However, we recommend targeted interventions particularly for county-level laboratories, where we identified a number of gaps. Given the importance of surveillance and reporting, addressing gaps in public health functions is likely to have the greatest positive impact for IHR requirements. The quantitative WHO laboratory assessment tool wa…

  • Niche modeling predictions of the potential distribution of Marmota himalayana, the host animal of plague in Yushu County of Qinghai

    Open AccessLiang Lu, Zhoupeng Ren et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2016

    The results suggested that marmots preferred warm areas with relatively low altitudes and good vegetation conditions in Yushu County. Based on these results, the present research is useful in understanding the niche selection and distribution pattern of marmots in this region

  • Identifying Environmental Risk Factors of Cholera in a Coastal Area with Geospatial Technologies

    Open AccessMin Xu, Chunxiang Cao et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2014

    Satellites contribute significantly to environmental quality and public health. Environmental factors are important indicators for the prediction of disease outbreaks. This study reveals the environmental factors associated with cholera in Zhejiang, a coastal province of China, using both Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic information System (GIS). The analysis validated the correlation between the indirect satellite measurements of sea surface t…
