The subtype HCV situation of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Guangdong remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate Subtype and estimate the HCV subtypes in drug users (DU) using a city-based sampling strategy to better understand the Drug users characteristics of HCV transmission in Guangdong. Archived plasma samples (n = 1074) from DU who were Molecular epidemiology anti-HCV positive in 2014 were selected randomly from 20 cities in Guangdong Province. Subtypes were de- Guangdong termined based on core and/or E1 sequences using phylogenetic analysis. The distributions of HCV subtypes in DU and different regions were analyzed. A total of 8 genotypes were identified. The three main HCV subtypes in DU in Guangdong were 6a (63.0%), 3a (15.2%), and 3b (11.8%). Significant differences were discovered among different registered residency and regions but not among genders, marital status, education level, or drug use patterns. -

Strongly heterogeneous transmission of COVID–19 in mainland China: local and regional variation Yuke Wang, MSc1, Peter Teunis, PhD1 March 10, 2020 Summary Background The outbreak of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) started in the city of Wuhan, China, with a period of rapid initial spread. Transmission on a regional and then national scale was promoted by intense travel during the holiday period of the Chinese New Year. We studied the variation in transmission of COVID-19, locally in Wuhan, as well as on a larger spatial scale, among different cities and even among provinces in mainland China. Methods In addition to reported numbers of new cases, we have been able to assemble detailed contact data for some of the initial clusters of COVID-19. This enabled estimation of the serial interval for clinical cases, as well as reproduction numbers for small and large regions. Findings We estimated the average serial interval was 4·8 days. For early transmission in Wuhan, any infectious case produced as many as four new cases, transmission outside Wuhan was less in- tense, with reproduction numbers below two. During the rapid growth phase of the outbreak the region of Wuhan city acted as a hot spot, generating new cases upon contact, while locally, in other provinces, transmission was low. -

Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait Through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks
Article Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait Through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks Yan Ma 1,* and Feng Xue 2 School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Fuzhou University, Fuzhou 350108, Fujian, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 April 2019; Accepted: 21 May 2019; Published: 24 May 2019 Abstract: Globalization and the spread of information have made city networks more complex. The existing research on city network structures has usually focused on discussions of regional integration. With the development of interconnections among cities, however, the characterization of city network structures on a regional scale is limited in the ability to capture a network’s complexity. To improve this characterization, this study focused on network structures at both regional and local scales. Through the lens of function and innovation, we characterized the city network structure of the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through a social network analysis and a Fast Unfolding Community Detection algorithm. We found a significant imbalance in the innovation cooperation among cities in the region. When considering people flow, a multilevel spatial network structure had taken shape. Among cities with strong centrality, Xiamen, Fuzhou, and Whenzhou had a significant spillover effect, which meant the region was depolarizing. Quanzhou and Ganzhou had a significant siphon effect, which was unsustainable. Generally, urbanization in small and midsize cities was common. These findings provide support for government policy making. Keywords: city network; spatial organization; people flows; innovation network 1. -

China Meizhou Mazu Cultural Tourism Festival Application to IFEA World Festival & Event City Award Program 2011
China Meizhou Mazu Cultural Tourism Festival Application to IFEA World Festival & Event City Award Program 2011 As the birthplace of legendary Mazu, Meizhou Island of Putian City in China’s Fujian Province is the cradle of Mazu culture and the first Mazu temple is also situated there. Mazu was born on March 23 according to the Chinese lunar calendar in 960 AD. She dedicated her entire life helping her fellow townsmen. On September 9, 987 AD, she devoted her life at one attempt trying to rescue victims from a ship wreck. The local residents then built a temple in memory of her and started to worship her as the goddess of the sea. As maritime industry continued to grow, Mazu gradually became the most influential patron saint that was worshiped both officially and at civic level. Throughout over a thousand years of evolvement, the Belief in Mazu gradually merged with traditional customs; it has now turned into a folk culture that sees universal fraternity, moral composition and doing merciful deeds in worship of Mazu, as its core values. This kind of folk culture presents itself in the form of temple fairs or custom practices at home and in Mazu temples around the world. Mazu culture has spread to as far as more than 20 countries and regions, with over 200 million followers. The memory and belief of Mazu has deeply impacted Chinese people’s life, especially of those who live in coastal areas and their descendents. Mazu culture has become a significant cultural bond to enhance family harmony, social solidarity as well as the community identity of all Mazu followers. -
Rapid and Complicated HIV Genotype Expansion Among High-Risk Groups
Zhou et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2019) 19:185 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-019-3788-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Rapid and complicated HIV genotype expansion among high-risk groups in Guangdong Province, China Ping-Ping Zhou1, Guolong Yu2, Yi-Qun Kuang1,3, Xu-He Huang1, Yan Li2, Xiaobing Fu2, Peng Lin2, Jin Yan2* and Xiang He1* Abstract Background: Guangdong Province is one of the most developed and populous provinces in southern China, with frequent foreign exchanges and large transient population. The annual number of cases of HIV/AIDS reported in Guangdong has been higher than most of provinces in China for several successive years. HIV infection by heterosexual transmission occurs across the province, with transmission among men who have sex with men occurring mainly in larger urban centers. There is a lack of widespread and representative data on the distribution of HIV subtypes in Guangdong. This study aimed to thoroughly investigate and estimate the prevalence and distribution of HIV-1 subtypes using a city-based sampling strategy to better understand the characteristics of HIV transmission in Guangdong. Methods: Archived plasma samples (n = 1205) from individuals diagnosed as HIV-1 infection in 2013 were selected randomly from all 21 cities in Guangdong Province. Genotypes were determined using env and/or gag sequences using phylogenetic analysis. The distributions of HIV genotypes in different risk groups and different cities were analyzed. Results: A total of 15 genotypes, including six discordant genotypes, were identified. The four main HIV-1 subtypes in Guangdong were CRF01_AE (43.2%), CRF07_BC (26.3%), CRF55_01B (8.5%), and CRF08_BC (8.4%). -
