Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of altitude of residence on influenza A (H1N1). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed 207 135 officially notified of influenza-like illness (ILI) cases, 23 048 hospitalizations and 573 deaths during the first months of the novel pandemic influenza A H1N1 virus, to examine if residents of high altitude had more frequently these adverse outcomes. RESULTS: Adjusted rates for hospitalization and hospital mortality rates increased with altitude, probably due to hypoxemia.
OBJETIVO: Determinar el efecto de la altitud del lugar de residencia sobre la epidemia de influenza A (H1N1). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se analizaron 207 135 casos notificados a la Secretaría de Salud, 23 048 hospitalizaciones y 573 muertes por enfermedad similar a la influenza (ILI, por sus siglas en inglés) durante los primeros meses de la pandemia del nuevo virus de la influenza A H1N1 durante 2009, para examinar si los residentes de zonas más altas presentaron tasas más altas de hospitalización y muerte. RESULTADOS: Las tasas ajustadas de hospitalización y mortalidad hospitalaria se incrementaron con la altitud probablemente por la presencia de hipoxemia.
