title: [Analysis of schistosomiasis endemic situation in Jiangling County from 2004 to 2013].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To analyze the schistosomiasis endemic situation and understand its transmission trend in Jiangling County from 2004 to 2013, so as to improving the schistosomiasis control.
  
  
  METHODS
  The relevant data of schistosomiasis were collected and analyzed statistically in Jiangling county from 2004-2013.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The human prevalence of schistosomiasis was decreased from 10.22% in 2004 to 0.63% in 2013 with the descend rate of 93.84%, and the notable descend rate was 76.92% from 2009-2013. The cattle infection rate was decreased yearly from 7.59% in 2004 to 0 in 2013. The appearance rate of frames with living Oncomelania hupensis snails and the infection rate of snails reduce by 17.53% and 100% respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  After 10-year control, the endemic situation of schistosomiasis in Jiangling County decreases and is at a low level. However, the risk factors of transmission still exist. Therefore, the comprehensive control measures still should be enhanced continuously.
