Correlation between night sweats and season fluctuation in China
BackgroundNight sweats are a condition in which an individual sweats excessively during sleep without awareness, and stops when they wake up. Prolonged episodes of night sweats might result in the depletion of trace elements and nutrients, affecting the growth and development of children.PurposeTo i...

| description | BackgroundNight sweats are a condition in which an individual sweats excessively during sleep without awareness, and stops when they wake up. Prolonged episodes of night sweats might result in the depletion of trace elements and nutrients, affecting the growth and development of children.PurposeTo investigate the relationship between sweat nights and season.MethodThe Internet search index for night sweats in Zhengzhou, China was obtained from the Baidu index during 2011–2022. Meteorological factors, including ambient temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation and average wind speed in Zhengzhou were obtained from the website https://en.tutiempo.net/climate. A time series decomposition model was used to study the relationship between night sweats and seasonality. Continuous wavelet transform and cross wavelet transform were utilized to explore the relationship between night sweats and meteorological factors.ResultA typical periodic pattern is evident in the seasonal trend. Specifically, following a peak in January each year, there is a rapid decline followed by a secondary peak, after which a trough occurs. The search index of night sweats increased rapidly in the first stage, slowed down in the second stage, and showed negative growth from 2011 to 2014. The correlation coefficients between the search index for night sweats and atmospheric pressure as well as average temperature, are 0.25 and-0.26, respectively.ConclusionNight sweat was connected with season. Specifically, the number of night sweat search index increased in the cold season and declined in the summer season. Night sweat was negatively connected with temperature but favorably correlated with air pressure. |
