RESUMEN
Objective To explore the relationship between meteorological conditions and emergency visiting of acute onset of renal colic caused by kidney stones. Methods Retrospective study design was applied to collect the emergency visiting data of acute renal colic attack in zhongnan hospital of Wuhan university from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017, as well as the average daily temperature and humidity in wuhan, hubei province during the same period. Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were used to study the relationship between meteorological conditions and emergency visiting of acute onset of renal colic caused by kidney stones. Results The results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the R 2 of daily visits of patients with renal colic and daily meteorological conditions was 0.309 (P < 0.05), and the R 2 of monthly visits of patients and monthly meteorological conditions was 0.642 (P<0.05). Conclusions Both temperature and humidity are correlated with the number of emergency visits of acute attack patients with renal calculi and colic.
