| Sumario: | To research the relationship between room temperature and diarrhea diseases, we statistically analyzed the showed diarrhea's cases in Sanitary Jurisdiction from Coatzacoalcos, Ver., during the period 2000-2003. By means of time series and a model of linear regression, we have find out that the variability in the frequency of diarrheas can be explained in terms of 40% by the temperature. Therefore, the frequency of the diarrhea's cases increases during June, July and August. On the other hand in rainy seasons (September, October and November) both diarrhea's cases and temperatures fall linearly. |
