INTRODUCTION Malaria is not considered endemic in State of Piauí. METHODS Malaria epidemiology was examined using surveillance data.
During 2002-2013, of the 484 cases of malaria, 217 were classified as probably acquired in Piauí, most frequently in the Campo Largo, Buriti dos Lopes, and Luzilândia municipalities, and 267 were considered probably imported, from the States of Pará, Maranhão, Amazonas, Roraima, and Rondônia. Probably-imported cases occurred throughout the year, while 80.2% of the probably-acquired cases occurred in April-August, peaking at the end of the rainy season. CONCLUSIONS Malaria surveillance should be intensified. Further ecoepidemiological and entomological studies are needed.
引言 马拉尼昂州不被视为疟疾流行地区。方法 使用监测数据对疟疾流行病学进行研究。
在2002年至2013年期间,484例疟疾病例中,217例被归类为可能在马拉尼昂州感染,最常见于坎波拉戈、布里蒂多斯洛佩斯和卢齐兰迪亚市,267例被认为可能是输入性的,来自帕拉州、马拉尼昂州、亚马逊州、罗赖马州和朗多尼亚州。可能的输入性病例全年都有发生,而80.2%的可能在当地感染的病例发生在4月至8月,在雨季结束时达到高峰。结论 应加强疟疾监测。需要进一步开展生态流行病学和昆虫学研究。
