洲岛型流行区血吸虫病与社会经济因素的关系

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SHISTOSOMIASIS AND SOCIOECONOMIS FACTORS IN INSULAR AREAS

目的和方法在一洲岛型血吸虫病流行村抽样185户农民,调查其血吸虫病感染率与其家庭居住环境、饮用水源、养牛羊与否、人均耕地面积等社会经济因素的关系。结果和结论饮用江水是引起血吸虫病感染的重要因素,住房与江水的距离较近,感染血吸虫病的可能性较大;同时发现在该地区,饲养牛羊的农户,其感染率显著低于非饲养者,经济收入最高的农户,其感染率最高。

Aim and method In an insular ares,185 families are selected at random.The purpose is to learn the relation- ships between the infection rate and socioeconomic factors,such as living environment,water source for drink- ing,raisineg cattle and sheep,personal average cultivated area,etc.Result and conclusion Drinking water from the Yangtze River plays an important role in contracting the disease;the shorter distance between house and the River,the more likelihood of infection for people;furthermore,the infection rate in the raisers lr cattle and sheep is significantly lower than that in others;the highest infection rate occurs in families with highest in- come.
