气象因素与青岛市区儿童肺炎关系的研究

STUDY ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PNEUMONIA AND METEOROLOGICAL FACTORS IN QINGDAO URBAN AREA

目的 探讨青岛市区儿童肺炎与气象因素的关系。方法 收集青岛市区2001～2005年1442例肺炎病儿的发病时间及同期的月平均气温、气压、相对湿度、风速等气象资料。圆分布分析儿童肺炎的季节规律；直线相关、多元逐步回归分析气象因素与儿童肺炎之间的关系。结果 青岛市区儿童肺炎发病冬季为高峰，男、女病儿平均角分别在2月份与1月份（P〈0．05）。儿童肺炎发病多于低气温、高气压、低湿度的气象条件下发生（r=0．436～0．359，P〈0．05）。结论 气象因素是青岛市区儿童肺炎发病的影响因素，在儿童肺炎的预防工作中应充分考虑苴岩病的季节特点．

Objective To study the relationship between pneumonia in children and meteorological factors in Qingdao urban area. Methods Clinical data of 1 442 patients with pneumonia from year 2001 to 2005 were collected and analysed. Data on climatic conditions during the same period in Qingdao urban area were studied. The relationship between pneumonia and relevant meteorological factors was examined by using linear regression analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis. Pneumonia seasonal rhythm was studied by using circular distribution analysis. Results The peak season of pneumonia was in winter and the mean angles of boys and girls were in February and January, respectively （P〈0.05）, Higher incidence of pneumonia was related with high air pressure, low temperature, and low humidity （r= -0. 436-0. 359,P〈0.05）. Conclusion Climate conditions affect the incidence of pneumonia in children in Qingdao urban area. Meteorological factors should be considered in the prevention of the disease.
