Abstract

Objective To describe the characteristics of the dengue epidemic in Pinhalzinho, Santa Catarina, Brazil, and to investigate the effects of climate variables on Aedes aegypti mosquito infestation. Methods This was an ecological study using data on dengue cases, hospitalizations and deaths in 2015 and 2016; in addition to climate variables and Aedes aegypti breeding grounds from 2015 to 2018. Results In the 2015-2016 epidemic, the dengue incidence rate was 12,695.2/100,000 inhabitants. Higher incidence was registered in the female sex (13,926.4/100,000 inhabitants) and in the 50 years and over age group (17,162.0/100,000 inhabitants). Average temperature and relative humidity showed a positive relationship with increase in Aedes aegypti breeding grounds. Conclusion Dengue incidence during the epidemic was the highest ever recorded in the country. Climate conditions must be considered when planning vector control and dengue prevention actions.

2015-2016年巴西圣卡塔琳娜州Pinhalzinho登革热流行特征

目的了解巴西圣卡塔琳娜州Pinhalzinho地区登革热流行特征，探讨气候变量对埃及伊蚊孳生的影响。方法采用2015年和2016年登革热病例、住院和死亡数据进行生态学研究;除了2015年至2018年的气候变量和埃及伊蚊繁殖地之外。结果2015-2016年登革热发病率为12695.2 /10万居民。女性(13,926.4/100,000居民)和50岁及以上年龄组(17,162.0/100,000居民)的发病率较高。平均气温和相对湿度与埃及伊蚊孳生地的增加呈正相关。结论本次疫情期间登革热发病率为全国最高。在规划病媒控制和登革热预防行动时，必须考虑气候条件。
