The research was conducted during the period August, 2006 - May, 2007. Of the 63,649 cattles examined at the various abattoirs which are lpata, Sango, Oloje, Baboko, Oke-oyi, Iporin, Panada, Oke-ose and Marafa, 1,434 representing 25.2% were infected with Fasciola species while 114 representing 6.5% were condemned. Iporin slaughter slab had the highest prevalence of 3.6%, followed by panada with 3.4% and Ipata having the least prevalence of 1.6%. Similarly analysis of data on monthly basis showed that March had the highest prevalence of 2.8%, followed by April with 2.6% and December with the least prevalence of 1.8%. Overall infestation was 22.7% while overall condemnation was 6.5%. There was a significant difference （X^2 = 23.7, P 〈 0.05） in the monthly infestation rate. Also, there was no significant difference （X^2 = 10.7, P 〉 0.05） between the infection rate and condemnation among the various abattoirs. The factors responsible for the prevalence of Fasciola specie and pathology of infection are highlighted.展开更多

Methods： NVIVO 11 software was adopted to assort ancient TCM classics. Based on the holism and differentiation concepts of TCM and well-developed scales, the item pool was determined via brain storm and screened by Delphi method after classified; a Wechat questionnaire was handed out 240 times via the online system ＇Wen Juan Xing＂ and the results were statistically analyzed by the SPSS 17.0 version software. Results： Five dimensions consisting of 80 items were obtained after classification, and 60 items were selected by Delphi method; a total of 216 questionnaires were returned and the return rate was 90%. Of which, 215 questionnaires were valid ones, and the valid rate was 99%. By exploratory factor analysis （EFA）, 44 items were obtained, and the aggregate split-half reliability coefficient was 0.922. The Cronbach＇s alpha coefficient for the five dimensions, i.e. Liver Meridian, relevant meridians, basic psychological activities, work cognition and emotional reactions, was respectively 0.841, 0.842, 0.914, 0.836 and 0.839, indicating a content internal consistency. The score of each item was highly correlated with the corresponding dimension, and the intercommunity was between 0.474 and 0.801. Nine factors were generated, 2 in the dimension of Liver Meridian, 3 in the dimension of relevant meridians, 2 in the dimension of basic psychological activities, i in the dimension of work cognition, and 1 in the dimension of emotional reactions, and the load of each factor was between 0.438 and 0.859. The reliability and validity of the scale were well examined. Conclusion： The scale can be applied to evaluate the qi activities of Liver Meridian and depression symptoms related to workplace.展开更多
