title: [Analysis of schistosomiasis endemic situation in Yizhou City from 2011 to 2014].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the effect of schistosomiasis control in Yizhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, from 2011 to 2014, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the further prevention and control strategy.
  
  
  METHODS
  The schistosomiasis surveillance data were collected and analyzed in Yizhou City from 2011 to 2014.
  
  
  RESULTS
  From 2011 to 2014, 770.38 hm² was surveyed for the Oncomelania hupensis snails, and two snail infested sites were found, while no infected snails were found. Totally 3,524 residents were tested by ELISA for Schistosoma japonicum infection, and 38 cases were positive. The positive rate of 2013 was significantly higher than those of other three years (χ² = 15.08, P < 0.05). Totally 432 rats and 28 dogs were dissected and 1,697 cattle were examined by the stool test, but no positive cases were found.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The indicators of schistosomiasis surveillance are basically stable in Yizhou City.
