- 中文摘要: Based on the field trial of filariasis controlon the twin endemic islands of Kinmen Properand Little Kinmen, it demonstrated completelythat common salt medicated with diethylcarba-mazine (DEC) is a rapid and efficient means forthe treatment and control of filariasis. There-fore, the medicated salt was used insteated ofthe combined method of chemotherapy andlarvicide on Kinmen Proper in the 5th yearcontrol program in 1976. The results obtainedfrom the above islands from June 1, 1976 toMay 31,1977 are summarized as follows: 1. A total of 130,000 kg salt medicated with450 kg DEC (0.33%, W/W) was prepared by adrug company in Taipei, Taiwan, ROC, shippedto Kinmen Proper and distributed to 52,248persons in 127 villages, 12.7 gm salt and 42 mgDEC were taken by each person daily for 6months (March 10-September 10, 1977). 2. A pre-control survey among 8,357 personsin 17 villages of Kinmen Proper showed a mi-crofilarial rate of 0.65% and a mf. density of5.3 per 20 cmm blood. 3. A survey of 22,138 persons in 21 villa,ea,Kinmen Proper 1-4 weeks after control indicatedthat all accepted the program and no adverseside-effects were reported. 4. Follow-up survey after 2.5 years controlin Little Kinmen showed no mf. carriers werefound among 4,316 persons in 26 villages except2 out 234 pre-control carriers were found stillpositive by millipore membrane filtration method(MMFM). Mosquito infections among 902 CulexP. fatigans were not found. 5. A total of 292 pre-control filarial carrierswas examined 2.5 years after control, 59 carriersby blood thick smear and 233 by MMFM, 2in latter group were found still positive, givingthe negative rate of 99.3 per cent.
