| Abstract | Scrub typhus, caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, is a serious public health problem in Asia-Pacific region, threatening the health of more than one billion people worldwide. China is one of the countries with the most serious disease burden of scrub typhus. Previous epidemiological evidence indicated that meteorological factors may affected the incidence of scrub typhus, but with limited evidence of correlation between local natural environment factors dominated by meteorological factors and scrub typhus. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between monthly scrub typhus incidence and meteorological factors in areas with high Scrub typhus prevalence using a distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM). The monthly data on scrub typhus cases in ten provinces from 2006 to 2018 and meteorological parameters were obtained from the Public Health Science Data Center and the National Meteorological Data Sharing Center. The results of the single-variable and multiple-variable models showed a nonlinear relationship between incidences and meteorological factors of mean temperature (Tmean), rainfall (RF), sunshine hours (SH), and relative humidity (RH). Taking the median of meteorological factors as the reference value, the relative risks (RR) of monthly Tmean at 0 ℃, 46% RH, and 800 mm RF were most significant and RR were 2.28 (95% CI: 0.95-5.43), 1.71 (95% CI: 1.39-2.09), and 3.33 (95% CI: 1.89-5.86). In conclusion, relatively high temperature, high relative humidity, and favorable rainfall were associated with an increased risk of scrub typhus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
