  • Re-Emerging Schistosomiasis in Hilly and Mountainous Areas of Sichuan, China Song Liang,A Changhong Yang,B Bo Zhong,C & Dongchuan Qiu C
    Re-emerging schistosomiasis in hilly and mountainous areas of Sichuan, China Song Liang,a Changhong Yang,b Bo Zhong,c & Dongchuan Qiu c Abstract Despite great strides in schistosomiasis control over the past several decades in Sichuan Province, China the disease has re-emerged in areas where it was previously controlled. We reviewed historical records and found that schistosomiasis had re- emerged in eight counties by the end of 2004 — seven of 21 counties with transmission control and one of 25 with transmission interruption as reported in 2001 were confirmed to have local disease transmission. The average “return time” (from control to re-emergence) was about eight years. The onset of re-emergence was commonly signalled by the occurrence of acute infections. Our survey results suggest that environmental and sociopolitical factors play an important role in re-emergence. The main challenge would be to consolidate and maintain effective control in the longer term until “real” eradication is achieved. This would be possible only by the formulation of a sustainable surveillance and control system. Keywords Schistosomiasis/epidemiology/prevention and control; China (source: MeSH, NLM).

Rosen Received: 8 December 2015; Accepted: 25 February 2016; Published: 29 February 2016 Abstract: An interprovincial boundary region is a new subject of economic disparity study in China. This study explored the multi-scale spatio-temporal dynamics of economic development from 1995 to 2010 in the interprovincial boundary region of Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou, a mountain area and also the junction area of Tibetan Plateau, Hengduan Mountain, Yungui Plateau and Sichuan Basin in southwestern China. A quantitative study on county GDP per capita for different scales of administrative regions was conducted using the Theil index, Markov chains, a geographic information system and exploratory spatial data analysis. Results indicated that the economic disparity was closely related with geographical unit scale in the study area: the smaller the unit, the bigger the disparity, and the regional inequality gradually weakened over time. Moreover, significant positive spatial autocorrelation and clustering of economic development were also found. The spatial pattern of economic development presented approximate circle structure with two cores in the southwest and northeast. The Panxi region in the southwest core and a part of Hilly Sichuan Basin in the northeast core were considered to be hot spots of economic development.
