The Iodine 12 13 6 Deficiency Disorders (IDD) was once widespread and caused great 14 15 7 damages.For As an effectivepeer measure, review the Universal Saltonly Iodization(USI) has 16 17 8 been adopted for IDD prevention and control and has made great 18 19 9 achievement since 1994. By 2000, 17 provinces (municipalities) of China 20 21 10 had reached the goal of IDD elimination, and by far, have sustained for 22 [1] 23 11 10 years according to IDD eliminating criteria by WHO. 24 25 12 However, along with the discovering of iodine excess and its 26 [2-4] 27 13 side-effects, the increasing rate of thyroid disease, the raising of 28 29 14 residents’ health awareness, the debate of informed choices on choosing 30 31 15 IS or NIS became acute in China, ad hoc in coastal areas. As we know, 32 16 some developed European countries such as Belgium, Finland, France, 33 http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 34 35 17 Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy and Netherlands, etc. supply IS and NIS 36 [5] 18 37 simultaneously in the market. Their residents can purchase IS or NIS 38 19 voluntarily. As regards to China, for developed cities in IDD sustainable 39 40 20 eliminated provinces, is it the right time for supplying IS and NIS 41 on September 30, 2021 by guest. Protected copyright. 42 21 simultaneously? If so, can their residents still be free of IDD? And is 43 44 22 there a proper method to demarcate cities of supplying IS and NIS 45 46 23 simultaneously or only supplying IS? To answer these questions, the 47 48 24 status of residents’ subjective preference on choosing IS or NIS and 49 50 25 relevant influencing factors should be made clear first. 51 52 26 Door-to-door interview is usually used to conduct such investigations. 53 54 27 Considering the expenditure of time and money, a cross-sectional 55 56 28 telephone interview is a feasible alternative,it is a widespread method 57 58 59 60 4 For peer review only - http://bmjopen.bmj.com/site/about/guidelines.xhtml Page 5 of 26 BMJ Open BMJ Open: first published as 10.1136/bmjopen-2014-005397 on 11 July 2014.

  • Spatial Distribution Pattern of Minshuku in the Urban Agglomeration of Yangtze River Delta
    The Frontiers of Society, Science and Technology ISSN 2616-7433 Vol. 3, Issue 1: 23-35, DOI: 10.25236/FSST.2021.030106 Spatial Distribution Pattern of Minshuku in the Urban Agglomeration of Yangtze River Delta Yuxin Chen, Yuegang Chen Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China Abstract: The city cluster in Yangtze River Delta is the core area of China's modernization and economic development. The industry of Bed and Breakfast (B&B) in this area is relatively developed, and the distribution and spatial pattern of Minshuku will also get much attention. Earlier literature tried more to explore the influence of individual characteristics of Minshuku (such as the design style of Minshuku, etc.) on Minshuku. However, the development of Minshuku has a cluster effect, and the distribution of domestic B&Bs is very unbalanced. Analyzing the differences in the distribution of Minshuku and their causes can help the development of the backward areas and maintain the advantages of the developed areas in the industry of Minshuku. This article finds that the distribution of Minshuku is clustered in certain areas by presenting the overall spatial distribution of Minshuku and cultural attractions in Yangtze River Delta and the respective distribution of 27 cities. For example, Minshuku in the central and eastern parts of Yangtze River Delta are more concentrated, so are the scenic spots in these areas. There are also several concentrated Minshuku areas in other parts of Yangtze River Delta, but the number is significantly less than that of the central and eastern regions. Keywords: Minshuku, Yangtze River Delta, Spatial distribution, Concentrated distribution 1.

  • Multiple Lineages of Dengue Virus Serotype 2 Cosmopolitan Genotype
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Multiple Lineages of Dengue Virus Serotype 2 Cosmopolitan Genotype Caused a Local Dengue Outbreak Received: 13 August 2018 Accepted: 26 April 2019 in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, Published: xx xx xxxx China, in 2017 Hua Yu1, Qingxin Kong2, Jing Wang2, Xiaofeng Qiu1, Yuanyuan Wen2, Xinfen Yu1, Muwen Liu2, Haoqiu Wang1, Jingcao Pan1 & Zhou Sun2 During July to November 2017, a large dengue outbreak involving 1,138 indigenous cases occurred in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China. All patients were clinically diagnosed as mild dengue. Epidemiology investigation and phylogenetic analysis of circulating viruses revealed that at least three lineages of dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV-2) Cosmopolitan genotype initiated the outbreak during a short time. The analysis of the time to most recent common ancestor estimated that the putative ancestor of these DENV-2 lineages might rise no later than March, 2017, suggesting independent introductions of these lineages into Hangzhou. We presumed that group travelers visiting dengue- endemic areas gave rise to multiple introductions of these lineages during so short a time. Co-circulating of multiple DENV-2 lineages, emerging of disease in urban areas, hot and humid weather in Hangzhou adequate for mosquito breeding, and limited dengue diagnosis abilities of local hospitals, were the reasons causing the large local outbreak in Hangzhou. Dengue is a mosquito-borne infectious disease caused by dengue viruses (DENVs) which consists of four anti- genically distinct but closely related serotypes (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4). Dengue prevails in tropical and sub-tropical regions worldwide. It has been estimated recently that a total of 58.40 million sympto- matic dengue viral infections, including 13.57 thousand fatal cases, occurred globally in 2013 (ref.1).
