2000-2006年新疆维吾尔自治区炭疽流行病学分析

目的 回顾2000-2006年新疆维吾尔自治区炭疽的监测工作,方法对新疆维吾尔自治区(以下简称新疆)2000-2006年炭疽疫情资料进行宏观分析.结果 新疆炭疽发病率呈下降趋势、无死亡,多为散发,时有暴发,南疆的喀什地区仍是高发区,新疆炭疽属于农业型,有明显的季节性特征,为夏秋季流行;年龄分布有2个高峰,主要是儿童和青壮年;职业分布主要是农民.结论 人间炭疽流行之前往往先有畜间炭疽的发生和流行,因此应加强畜间炭疽流行的监测;有组织、有计划地开展防治炭疽的工作,把危害降到最低水平.

Epidemiological analysis if anthrax in Xinjiang from 2000 to 2006

Objective This study was designed to review the anthrax surveillance work in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from 2003 to 2006. Methods This macro analysis was performed based on the data on anthrax from 2000 to 2006 in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region(hereinafter referred to as Xinjiang) in order to yield better achievement of relevant surveillance work. Results The incidence of anthrax in Xinjiang presented a downward trend, the cases being mostly sporadic and occasionally outbreak with no death cases found. Kashi in the Southern Xinjiang was still a high-incidence area. The anthrax in Xinjiang was of the agricultural type with obvious seasonal characteristics, epidemic in summer and autumn. Two peaks were found in the age distribution, indicating that children and young adults were mostly involved; it was suggested from the occupational distribution that farmers were the mainly affected group. Conclusion An incidence and prevalence of anthrax among livestock was often found to occur prior to the anthrax epidemic between human beings. Therefore, intensified surveillance on the anthrax epidemic among farm animals is required along with organized and planned prevention and treatment of anthrax to minimize the hazards.
