ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the seasonal distribution of the clustering of fever and diarrhea.Methods Concentration degree and circular distribution methods were used to analyze the seasonal distribution of the clustering of fever and diarrhea in Beijing from 2009 to 2015.The information were collected from the Infectious Disease Surveillance Information System of Beijing.Results The M values of the clustering of fever and diarrhea were 0.57 and 0.47.Circular distribution results showed that the clustering of fever and diarrhea angle dispersion index R values were 0.57 and 0.46 respectively,the sample average angle of Rayleigh's test Z values were 414.14,148.09 respectively (all P＜0.01).The clustering of fever and diarrhea had seasonality.The incidence peak of fever was on October 13,and the epidemic period was during August 13-December 14.The incidence peak of diarrhea was on July 31,and the epidemic period was during May 20-October 11.Conclusion The clustering of fever had obvious seasonality in Beijing,which mainly occurred in auttmn and winter.The cluster of diarrhea had certain seasonality,which mainly occurred in summer and autumn.
