摘要
Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in Chengdu from 2012 to 2020, to make comparison in order to examine the changes in incidence before and after vaccination was introduced, and to provide basis for the prevention of HFMD in the future.Methods:Descriptive epidemiological methods were adopted to analyze the incidence, mortality and rate of severe cases of HFMD cases reported in Chengdu from 2012 to 2020.Results:From 2012 to 2020, the cumulative cases of HFMD reported in Chengdu were as many as 279216, of which, there were 2201 severe cases and 16 deaths. The incidence increased every other year, reaching 326.43 per 100000 person-years, the highest ever, in 2018. The rate of severe cases and mortality had shown a decreasing trend since 2016. A total of 11892 cases of EV71, CoxA16 and other enteroviruses were detected in the laboratory, accounting for 14.8%, 18.8% and 66.3%, respectively. Since 2016, HFMD cases caused by EV71 virus infection had shown an overall decreasing trend, cases caused by Cox A16 virus infection had increased every other year, and cases caused by other enteroviral infections had shown an overall increasing trend. The reported cases were mainly concentrated in children aged 0-5 years (92.1%), with those in the age group of 1-2 years reporting the highest number of cases. For children of different ages, male patients always outnumber female patients. The geographic distribution showed that the areas with high HFMD incidence were always located in the central part of Chengdu City, and the three districts with the highest incidence growth rate were Qingbaijiang District, Shuangliu District, and Longquanyi District. Temporal distribution of HFMD cases showed an obvious bimodal distribution, with most of the cases concentrated in May through August and October through December of each year. The number of new cases reached the highest (12309 cases) in July 2018.Conclusion:While continuing to promote EV71 vaccination in the future, Chengdu also needs to pay more attention to viral infection serotypes other than EV71 and Cox A16 and conduct research on multivalent vaccines against a variety of enteroviruses. The focus of prevention and control can be placed on areas with high population density, large floating populations, large numbers of agriculture-related communities, and insufficient individual awareness of hygiene. For the second circle of Chengdu city, the disinfection of agriculture-related communities should be strengthened, and information sessions or other health education activities could be organized for individuals and daycare facilities with low awareness of the importance of hygiene. In addition, more attention should be given to the prevention and control of HFMD in the high incidence seasons.
