Spatial and temporal distribution of falciparum malaria in China

Abstract: Background: Falciparum malaria is the most deadly among the four main types of human malaria. Although great success has been achieved since the launch of the National Malaria Control Programme in 1955, malaria remains a serious public health problem in China. This paper aimed to analyse the geographic distribution, demographic patterns and time trends of falciparum malaria in China.

“…However, the prevalence of malaria in Uvwie and Udu are not significantly different from one another. This finding corroborates with study of spatial and temporal distribution of falciparum malaria in China by Lin [28] showing that stable falciparum malaria transmission occurs in the bordering region of Yunnan and the hilly-forested.…”

“…We constructed ARIMA models for monthly HFRS incidence in Zibo from 1983 to 2012. ARIMA was designed to deal with highly seasonal data (23). An ARIMA (p, d, q) model comprises 3 types of parameters (15,23,24): the autoregressive parameters (p), number of differencing passes (d), and moving average parameters (q).…”

“…Because of the increase in international migrants to Hainan Province, 22 the number of imported falciparum malaria cases exhibited an increasing trend in recent years (Table 2). Thus, recognizing and understanding the influence of immigration populations will help to improve interventions against malaria.…”
