Schistosomiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease that affects human health and hinders economic development in affected areas.Schistosomiasis seriously endangers the body,working ability and quality of life of patients with advanced schistosomiasis.It will have a certain degree of influence on the family and society of the patient.Located in the lakeside area of Poyang Lake District,Xingzi County is affected by the terrain,climate,rivers,hydrology,and the unique seasonal fluctuation characteristics of Poyang Lake.Binhu has a large area of oncomelania snails and is one of the most prevalent schistosomiasis counties.With the intervention of schistosomiasis prevention work,residents of the affected area have become increasingly aware of schistosomiasis.Due to the complexity of the transmission of schistosomiasis and the influence of various natural factors and social factors,schistosomiasis is difficult to control or be eliminated in a short time.Checking snails and killing snails have always been schistosomiasis as the main measure to eliminate schistosomiasis.Although they have had some obvious effects,they are laborious and costly.Therefore,it may be necessary to change traditional concepts and practices.Only residents of affected areas are aware of schistosomiasis.Harmfulness,establishing a correct and positive attitude,it is possible to change the habits and behavior.In this study,two typical schistosomiasis epidemics in Qutang Township and Tongnan Township of Xingzi County were used as research areas.Household interviews were adopted to combine local residents' knowledge of schistosomiasis,schistosomiasis control attitudes,and schistosomiasis prevention activities.Gender and age were used.Various factors such as education level,education level,occupation,per capita monthly income,and residents' income sources are regarded as the influencing factors of residents' schistosomiasis infection,and the correlations between impact factors and the residents' knowledge,behavior,and economy are analyzed.370 residents of Jiaotang Town and Liaonan Township were selected to conduct a survey on the status of KAP.SPSS 19 software was used for statistical analysis.Descriptive analysis,independent sample t-test,one-way analysis of variance,Pearson correlation analysis,multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the residents' knowledge and behavior and influencing factors.Research indicates:(1)Residents have higher awareness of schistosomiasis and their attitudes toward schistosomiasis control are positive overall,but the overall level of schistosomiasis prevention behavior is not ideal.Residents' overall cognitive level is generally 192(51.9%)people are in the majority,and 25(7%)people with excellent cognition are very few.(2)The factors affecting the cognition of schistosomiasis in the residents include: gender,education level,occupation,source of income,family average monthly income,and source of cost for treating schistosomiasis;The factors affecting the attitude of schistosomiasis control among residents include: age,monthly income per family,occupation,source of income,cost of schistosomiasis treatment;and factors affecting residents' schistosomiasis control behavior: age,education level,source of income,occupation.(3)According to the results of multiple linear regression analysis,the factors affecting residents' total cognition are age,education level,family average monthly income,regression coefficient B value = 6.401,age is positively correlated with the total cognition of schistosomiasis in the population,and the significance is general;The coefficient B value is 10.503,and the education level is positively correlated with the total cognition of schistosomiasis in the residents,and the significance is general.The regression coefficient of family average monthly income is B =-7.854.The monthly household income per household is negatively correlated with the cognition of schistosomiasis.(4)Schistosomiasis is a behavioral disease.Residents' behavior can be improved through health education.Due to differences in individuality,education,production methods,and lifestyle habits,health education needs to develop targeted and differentiated strategies for different regions and different groups of people.
