Objective By analyzing the surveillance data of host animals of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Guyuan, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region (Ningxia), China from 2015 to 2021, to investigate the distribution of host animals of HFRS in Guyuan and their infection with viruses, so as to provide a basis for prevention and control, early warning and prediction of human epidemic in this region. Methods Small mammal trapping in field and residential areas in spring and autumn was carried out annually in accordance with the National Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome Monitoring Program in the Jingyuan, Pengyang, Xiji, and Longde Counties and Yuanzhou District of Guyuan from 2015 to 2021. The density, distribution, and species composition were monitored by the night trapping method and analyzed, and the lung and blood specimens of small mammals were collected for antigen and antibody detection. The SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis, counting data were expressed as rates, and were compared with the Chi-square test (P<0.05 indicates a statistically significant difference). Results From 2015 to 2021, a total of 5 515 small mammals were captured in Guyuan, with a mean density of 2.00%. The density of small mammals in the field areas (2.18%) was statistically higher than that in the residential areas (1.71%)(χ2=55.920, P<0.001). The density of small mammals was statistically different across years and between different counties (districts) in the field areas (χ2=991.300, 1 202.179, both P<0.001); the dominant rodent species in Jingyuan County, Yuanzhou District, and Longde County were Apodemus agrarius, the dominant rodent species changed from A. agrarius to Rattus norvegicus in Longde county, and the dominant rodent species in Xiji County and Pengyang County were Cricetulus longicaudatus and Mus musculus, respectively. The density of small mammals was statistically different across years and between different counties (districts) in the residential areas (χ2=326.600, 430.500, both P<0.001), and the density of small mammals was generally below 5%. The dominant rodent species in Jingyuan, Xiji, Longde, and Pengyang were all M. musculus, and the dominant rodent species in Yuanzhou was R. norvegicus, with the proportion increased year by year. From 2018 to 2020, the density of small mammals showed a downward trend in the field and residential areas of Jingyuan and Longde, the field areas of Yuanzhou and Xiji, and the residential areas of Pengyang. The density of small animals increased statistically from 2020 to 2021 in the field and residential areas of Yuanzhou and Longde and in the field areas of Pengyang (all P<0.05). The infection rate (antibody positivity rate) of small mammals was 5.48 times the virus-carrying rate (antigen positivity rate) in the 7-year period; the virus-carrying rate of small animals was highest in Jingyuan County (1.05%), and the infection rate of small mammals was highest in Longde County (10.61%). The infection rate of small mammals in residential areas was statistically higher than that in field areas (χ2=12.675, P=0.008), while Hantavirus carrying of small mammals was only detected in the field areas. The virus-carrying rate of A. agrarius (2.94%) was higher than its infection rate (1.96%), and the infection rate of R. norvegicus (3.20%) was higher than its virus-carrying rate (0). Conclusions In recent years, the density of small mammals in Guyuan of Ningxia was generally low, but showed a slight increasing trend in the past two years; the density in the field areas was higher than that in the residential areas. The dominant rodent species were mostly A. agrarius in the field areas and M. musculus in the residential areas. The virus-carrying rate and infection rate of rodents increased significantly in 2021, suggesting that although the density, distribution, and composition of host animals of HFRS in Guyuan of Ningxia have not changed significantly, we still need to be vigilant for outbreaks of human epidemics.
