influenza infection in humans and pigs in southeastern china. | the three last pandemic strains of influenza a virus-asian/57, hong kong/68 and russian/77-are believed to have originated in china. the strains responsible for the 1957 and 1968 human pandemics were reassortants incorporating both human and avian influenza viruses, which may have arisen in pigs. we therefore undertook a population-based study in the nanchang region of central china to establish the prevalence, types and seasonal pattern of human influenza infection and to screen serum samples f ... | 1996 | 8645101 |
an electrophoretic comparison of schistosoma japonicum (trematoda) from different provinces in the people's republic of china suggests the existence of cryptic species. | schistosoma japonicum from the people's republic of china is considered to represent a single species comprising either 1 or 4 'strains'. we conducted an allozyme electrophoretic study to examine the extent of genetic variation in s. japonicum from mainland china. the allelic profiles of s. japonicum from 7 provinces were established at 16 enzyme loci. s. japonicum from sichuan had 3-5 (19-31%) fixed differences compared with those from zhejiang, anhui, jiangxi, hunan, hubei and yunnan, suggesti ... | 1999 | 10581616 |

ferret badger rabies origin and its revisited importance as potential source of rabies transmission in southeast china. | the frequent occurrence of ferret badger-associated human rabies cases in southeast china highlights the lack of laboratory-based surveillance and urges revisiting the potential importance of this animal in rabies transmission. to determine if the ferret badgers actually contribute to human and dog rabies cases, and the possible origin of the ferret badger-associated rabies in the region, an active rabies survey was conducted to determine the frequency of rabies infection and seroprevalence in d ... | 2010 | 20691095 |

serological survey of canine dirofilariosis in chongqing, kunming, nanchang, fuzhou, guangzhou, shenzhen, and nanning in southern china. | the present study conducts a serological survey on the presence of canine dirofilariosis in domestic dogs using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) kit. a total of 310 household dogs (166 females and 144 males) in chongqing, kunming, nanchang, fuzhou, guangzhou, shenzhen, and nanning in southern china were examined. of the 310 dogs, 42 (13.5%) were seropositive for dirofilariosis. no statistically significant difference was observed in terms of sex in the seroprevalence of dirofilariosi ... | 2011 | 22024016 |
