Forecasting Influenza Epidemics from Multi-Stream Surveillance Data in a Subtropical City of China
BACKGROUND Influenza has been associated with heavy burden of mortality and morbidity in subtropical regions. However, timely forecast of influenza epidemic in these regions has been hindered by unclear seasonality of influenza viruses. In this study, we developed a forecasting model by integrating multiple sentinel surveillance data to predict influenza epidemics in a subtropical city Shenzhen...
متن کاملInfluenza-associated mortality in temperate and subtropical Chinese cities, 2003-2008.
OBJECTIVE To estimate influenza-associated mortality in urban China. METHODS Influenza-associated excess mortality for the period 2003-2008 was estimated in three cities in temperate northern China and five cities in the subtropical south of the country. The estimates were derived from models based on negative binomial regressions, vital statistics and the results of weekly influenza virus su...
متن کاملHIV-1 subtypes among intravenous drug users from two neighboring cities in São Paulo State, Brazil.
In order to assess the molecular epidemiology of HIV-1 in two neighboring cities located near the epicenter of the HIV-1 epidemics in Brazil (Santos and São Paulo), we investigated 83 HIV-1 strains obtained from samples collected in 1995 from intravenous drug users. The V3 through V5 region of the envelope of gp 120 was analyzed by heteroduplex mobility analysis. Of the 95 samples, 12 (12.6%) w...
متن کاملDissimilar teen crash rates in two neighboring southeastern Virginia cities with different high school start times.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Early high school start times may contribute to insufficient sleep leading to increased teen crash rate. Virginia Beach (VB) and Chesapeake are adjacent, demographically similar cities. VB high schools start 75-80 minutes earlier than Chesapeake's. We hypothesized that VB teens would manifest a higher crash rate than Chesapeake teens. METHODS The Virginia Department of Motor ...
متن کاملInfluenza-Associated Hospitalization in a Subtropical City
BACKGROUND The impact of influenza on morbidity and hospitalization in the tropics and subtropics is poorly quantified. Uniquely, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has computerized hospital discharge diagnoses on 95% of total bed days, allowing disease burden for a well-defined population to be accurately assessed. METHODS AND FINDINGS Influenza-associated morbidity and hospitalizat...
