Effects of meteorological factors on daily outpatient visits for skin diseases: a time series study in a Chinese population

摘要

To the Editor: There is limited evidence as to the association between outpatient visits in dermatology and meteorological factors. A previous study has focused on the effects of meteorological factors on a certain disease, and seemed to lack systematic analysis for a class of diseases.[1] Here, we investigated the short-term effects of meteorological factors on the number of daily outpatient visits for skin diseases.
