Background and Purpose: Studies looking at seasonal variation on cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) are few with conflicting conclusions. In this region-specific study, we looked for climatic influence and seasonal trends on the incidence of CVT. Methods: Imaging proven adult CVT cases treated over a period of 18 years from a specific geographical location with similar seasons and climatic conditions were studied. Metrological parameters prepared using 30 years of data was used. Quantum geographical information system (QGIS software) and SPSS v 22 were used for patient plotting and analysis. Results: Total of 970 cases were studied. The incidence was significantly higher in summer 411 (42.3%) compared with autumn 317 (32.7%) and winter 242 (25.05); P = 0.038. This trend was consistent across all the 18 years in time series analysis. Mean age was 33.5 years (range 18–88 years). A significant majority 673 (69.4%) were below 40 years of age; P = 0.012. Females constituted 394 (40.6%) of cases. Postpartum CVT cases constituted 237 (30%). Interaction analysis showed younger age (<40 years) were more vulnerable for CVT in summer; P = 0.009. There was no seasonal influence on postpartum CVT. Apart for a weak positive correlation between rain fall (r = 0.18, P < 0.01); humidity and cloud cover was not influencing the incidence. Conclusions: Higher ambient temperatures were consistently associated with higher incidence of CVT. This is the largest region-specific study on CVT in the world. These results may be applicable to other regions with similar climatic conditions.

脑静脉血栓形成、季节性趋势和气候影响:特定地区的研究


背景和目的:关于脑静脉血栓形成 (CVT) 季节性变化的研究很少得出相互矛盾的结论。在这项针对特定地区的研究中,我们寻找气候对 CVT 发病率的影响和季节性趋势。方法:研究了从具有相似季节和气候条件的特定地理位置接受治疗超过 18 年的影像学证实成人 CVT 病例。使用了使用 30 年数据准备的计量参数。量子地理信息系统(QGIS 软件)和 SPSS v 22 用于患者绘图和分析。结果:共研究了970例。夏季411(42.3%)的发病率明显高于秋季317(32.7%)和冬季242(25.05);= 0.038。这一趋势在所有 18 年的时间序列分析中都是一致的。平均年龄为 33.5 岁(范围 18-88 岁)。大多数 673 (69.4%) 人年​​龄在 40 岁以下;P = 0.012。女性占 394 例(40.6%)。产后 CVT 病例占 237 例 (30%)。交互作用分析显示,年龄较小(<40 岁)在夏季更容易发生 CVT;P = 0.009。对产后 CVT 没有季节性影响。除了降雨量之间呈弱正相关(r = 0.18,P < 0.01);湿度和云量对发病率没有影响。结论:较高的环境温度始终与较高的 CVT 发生率相关。这是世界上最大的针对 CVT 的地区性研究。这些结果可能适用于其他气候条件相似的地区。
