摘要：

Cholera is considered as a model for climate-retated infectious diseases. In Bangladesh, cholera epidemics occur during summer and winter seasons, but it is not known how climate variability influences the seasonality of cholera. Therefore, the variability pattern of cholera events was studied in relation to the variation in local climate variables in Matlab, Bangladesh. Classification and regression tree (CART) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to study the dependency and variability pattern of monthly total cholera cases. An average temperature >= 23.25 degrees C corresponded to the lowest average cholera occurrence (23 cases/month). At a temperature of >= 23.25 degrees C and sunshine <4.13 h/day, the cholera occurrence was 39 cases/month. With increased sunshine (>= 4.13 h/day) and temperature (23.25-28.66 degrees C), the second highest cholera occurrence (44 cases/month) was observed. When the sunshine was >= 4.13 h/day and the temperature was >28.66 degrees C, the highest cholera occurrence (54 cases/month) was observed. These results demonstrate that in summer and winter seasons in Bangladesh, temperature and sunshine hours compensate each other for higher cholera incidence. The synergistic effect of temperature and sunshine hours provided the highest number of cholera cases. (C) 2009 Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
