Objective:
To understand the risk situation of imported schistosomiasis and its main influencing factors in Shanghai City from 2005 to 2015.
Methods:
A retrospective survey was performed, and the database was established based on the data collection of imported schistosomiasis, Oncomelania hupensis snail situation and mobile population in Shanghai City from 2005 to 2015.
Results:
From 2005 to 2015, the mobile population in Shanghai City increased by 123.92%, which reached about 9 816 500, and 54.70% of them were located in the inner suburban districts. The accumulated areas with snails of 7.13 hm2 were found in 16 towns of 4 outer suburbs (excluding Chongming District). A total of 23 cases of imported schistosomiasis were found in Shanghai City, and the number of the imported schistosomiasis cases was on the downward trend (rs = -0.782, P = 0.004). From 2005 to 2009, 11 out of 13 imported schistosomiasis cases (84.62%) were distributed in the inner suburban districts where no O. hupensis snails were found at the same time. From 2010 to 2015, 9 out of 10 imported schistosomiasis cases (90%) were distributed in the outer suburban districts where O. hupensis snails were found at the same time.
Conclusions:
The number of imported schistosomiasis cases in Shanghai is on the downward trend. However, the threat of imported schistosomiasis to the prevention and control of schistosomiasis in Shanghai City should not be ignored.

Protein Import into the Peroxisomes
Peroxisomal Protein Import:
Peroxisomes lack the genetic machinery required to code for their own proteins. Hence, most peroxisomal membrane, lumenal and transmembrane proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm or ER and transported to the peroxisome...
ABC Transporters: Importer
In bacteria, based on the number of transmembrane helices and the chemical nature of their substrates, the ABC importers can be divided into three types:

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...
