Effect of meteorological factors on clinical malaria risk among children: an assessment using village-based meteorological stations and community-based parasitological survey
BACKGROUND Temperature, rainfall and humidity have been widely associated with the dynamics of malaria vector population and, therefore, with spread of the disease. However, at the local scale, there is a lack of a systematic quantification of the effect of these factors on malaria transmission. Further, most attempts to quantify this effect are based on proxy meteorological data acquired from ...
متن کاملشرایط اقلیمی شیوع بیماری مالاریا در ایران با استفاده از سامانه‌ی اطلاعات جغرافیایی
Background and aim: Malaria as a mosquito-borne disease is largely dependent on climatic conditions. Temperature, rainfall and relative humidity are considered as climatic factors affecting the geographical distribution of this disease. These climatic factors have definite roles not only in the growth and proliferation of the mosquito Anopheles but also in the parasite Plasmodium activity. The...
متن کاملLocal scale prediction of Plasmodium falciparum malaria transmission in an endemic region using temperature and rainfall
BACKGROUND To support malaria control strategies, prior knowledge of disease risk is necessary. Developing a model to explain the transmission of malaria, in endemic and epidemic regions, is of high priority in developing health system interventions. We develop, fit and validate a non-spatial dynamic model driven by meteorological conditions that can capture seasonal malaria transmission dynami...
متن کاملThe effect of meteorological drought on vegetation dynamics in Iran
Drought as a complex ecosystem crisis can affect vegetation density and health. Iran with an arid and semi-arid climate is exposed to this phenomenon. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the effect of drought on vegetation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of meteorological drought on vegetation dynamics in Iran. In this regard, using MATLAB software, SPEI index with time ...
متن کاملبررسی روند تغییرات آلاینده های هوا و ارتباط آن با پارامترهای هواشناسی در شهر بجنورد در سال 1393
Abstract Background and Objective: Air pollution can harm humans and the environment. To reduce the effect of these parameters in the emissions of air pollutants known to the local topographical features and climatic conditions are factors. The purpose of this study, monthly and seasonal variations are contaminants and their relationship with meteorological parameters. Methods: the presen...
