Objective:To understand the reported incidence level, change of the trend, epidemic characteristics and spatial clustering of scrub typhus in Nanjing, to explore key seasons, populations and areas for prevention and control, and to guide formulation of scientific and precise prevention and control strategies and measures.Methods:The reported data of scrub typhus in Nanjing from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2020 were collected in the "Infectious Disease Surveillance System" from Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The reported incidence level and change of the trend were analyzed, and the seasonal, population and spatial distribution characteristics were described. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis was carried out by ArcGIS 10.3 software, and the spatial clustering scanning was carried out by using FleXScan 3.1.2 software.Results:A total of 192 cases of scrub typhus were reported in Nanjing from 2011 to 2020. Median annual reported incidence was 0.21/100 000 (0.12/100 000 - 0.49/100 000). Totally 87.5% (168/192) of cases were reported from October to November, and the peak occurred in November (57.8%, 111/192). Among these cases, males accounted for 64.1% (123/192); and the median age was 59 years old (6 - 84 years old). The groups ≥60 years old and 45 - 59 years old accounted for 47.9% (92/192) and 31.2% (60/192), respectively, which accounted for 79.2% (152/192) in all groups. Farmers accounted for 43.8% (84/192), household chores and unemployed people accounted for 16.7% (32/192), retired persons accounted for 15.6% (30/192) and workers accounted for 6.8% (13/192), which accounted for 82.8% (159/192) in all occupations. The top four areas in the total number of reported cases were Jiangning District (23.4%, 45/192), Luhe District (22.9%, 44/192), Gulou District (10.4%, 20/192) and Jiangbei New Area (8.9%, 17/192), which accounted for 65.6% (126/192) in all districts. According to global spatial autocorrelation analysis, Moran's I = 0.34 ( Z = 5.90, P < 0.001). FlexScan 3.1.2 software scanned and detected two spatial clusters areas, the first-class of cluster area covered three streets in Jiangning District, one street in Yuhuatai District and two streets in Pukou District [restricted log likelihood ratio ( RLLR) = 26.91, P < 0.001]. The second-class of cluster area included six townships/streets in Luhe District and four streets in Jiangbei New Area ( RLLR = 26.48, P < 0.001). All the cluster areas were agriculture-related. Conclusions:The reported incidence level of scrub typhus in Nanjing is low and stable which belongs to a typical autumn epidemic area. The middle-aged and elderly population is the key population and the agriculture-related area is key area. It is suggested that scrub typhus should be included in the management of statutory or regional key infectious diseases in Nanjing. Additionally, training on diagnosis and treatment technology and information report management of scrub typhus need to be carried out, and comprehensive prevention and control interventions such as health education, personal protection, rodent prevention and control and vector control should be strengthened and implemented in the high incidence season.

Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Nanjing City from January 2012 to July 2017, and to provide a basis for formulating better strategies for disease prevention and control. Methods Demographic data of populations and surveillance data of HFRS cases in Nanjing were collected from January 1, 2012 to July 31, 2017. Descriptive epidemiological method, combined with ArcGIS 10.2, was used to explore epidemic characteristics of HFRS, including time, area and population distribution characteristics. The difference of epidemiological characteristics of HFRS were explored between the first 7 months of 2017 and the past 5 years (from 2012 to 2016). Epidemic situation was analyzed in high incidence areas of Nanjing in 2017. Forewarning analysis was performed to detect the probability of the aggregation epidemic. Results A total of 220 HFRS cases were reported in Nanjing City, from January 1, 2012 to July 31, 2017, and the average annual incidence was 0.45 cases per 100, 000 persons. The incidence peaked twice annually and the value (57.3%) in spring (March to June) was higher than that (19.1%) in winter (December to January of next year). The cases from Gaochun District accounted for 44.1% of the reported cases, which was far more than other districts of Nanjing, and most cases located in the eastern and northern areas of Gaochun District and some towns of Lishui District adjacent to Gaochun District. The median age and interquartile range was 48.0 (39.0, 60.0) years old. Among these cases, males accounted for 68.2%, and farmers accounted for 59.5%. At the same time, the age of HFRS cases reported in the first 7 months of 2017 was older than that in the past five years (from 2012 to 2016) (t=-2.62, P<0.05), and the number of HFRS cases from Lishui District increased in the first 7 months of 2017 (11 cases vs 13 cases, χ2= 6.83, P<0.05). Poisson distribution was used to probe the abnormal signals of epidemic situation in the first 7 months of 2017, and 3 abnormal signals (P<0.05) were found in three months (March, May, and July) without aggregation epidemic appeared by further epidemiological investigation. Conclusion The incidence of HFRS in Nanjing was stable in recent years. The majority of HFRS cases located in Gaochun district and Lishui district, young men and farmers were at high risk of the disease exposure. It was necessary to strengthen monitoring of the high-risk area and population. Key words: Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome; Hantavirus; Epidemiological characteristic

Objective: To investigate the situation of recreational drug nitrous acid ester inhaler-rush poppers use in men who have sex with men (MSM). Methods: From April to June in 2014, October to December in 2014, April to June in 2015, three round cross-sectional surveys were conducted in MSM recruited in Nanjing by means of serum test and questionnaire survey. Results: Of the 1 721 MSM surveyed in three round, 19.3% (332/1 721) had ever used rush poppers, the proportions of MSM who used rush poppers in three round surveys showed an increasing trend (liner by liner χ(2)= 14.879, P=0.000), which was 12.6% (86/681), 27.6% (121/439) and 20.8% (125/601) respectively. Rush poppers use was associated with HIV infection significantly (OR=1.676, 95%CI: 1.201-2.339, P=0.002). Compared with MSM without rush poppers use, the MSM with rush poppers use were mainly aged <30 years, unmarried, received college and higher education, had lived in Nanjing for less than 2 years, seek sex partners through internet and identified themselves as homosexual orientation. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that less than 30 years old, living in Nanjing for less than 2 years, with college and higher education level, more than 2 sex partners in the past 6 months, being diagnosed with STDs in the previous one year and using traditional drugs were the risk factors associated with rush poppers use. Conclusion: Rush poppers use was related with HIV infection in MSM in Nanjing.
Objective To understand the prevalence of rush poppers use among MSM in Nanjing and assess its association with HIV,syphilis in the context of multiple sexual partnerships and unprotected anal intercourse (UAI).Methods Two rounds of cross-sectional surveys among MSM were conducted from November 2014 to February 2015,and April to July 2015.MSM were interviewed anonymously and tested for HIV and syphilis.The survey in cluded social-demographic characteristics,sexual roles,sexual behaviors and rush poppers use in the past 6 months.Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess the associations of rush poppers use and HIV,syphilis,controlling number of sexual partners and UAI.Results Of 1040 participants,23.7% ever used rush poppers in the past 6 months;48.8% of MSM had ≥2 sexual partners and 42.9% had UAI in the past 6 months.Prevalence of HIV and syphilis were 11.9% and 6.1%,respectively.Rush poppers use was associated with HIV infection (aOR =2.127,95%CI:1.402-3.225).Men with rush poppers use were more likely to have ≥2 sexual partners (aOR=3.818,95%CI:2.754-5.294) andUAI(aOR=1.765,95%CI:1.310-2.376) in the past 6 months.Rush poppers use was associated with HIV infection (aOR=1.995,95%CI:1.283-2.981) persistently after adjusting for UAI.Conclusion The mediation models suggests a strong role of rush poppers use and UAI to predict the risks for HIV infection,with less influence from multiple partnerships.We should focus on rush poppers use while carrying out health education among MSM.
