“…Chlamydia (bacterial, Gram-negative, Chlamydia Trachomatis) with incubation of 2-6 weeks and direct ocular transmission, appears with symptoms of acute or chronic follicular conjunctivitis, pathological secretions or increased lacrimation, cutting, burning and foreign body sensation in the eye, and with signs of mild edema of bulbar conjunctiva and meandering irregular caliber of vessels (37,38). Chlamydial eye infections are thought to result from autoinoculation by the patient of infected genital secretions from themselves and/or their partners (39) but may also begin as primary, sole infection following direct ejaculation into the eye (40).…”

“…Although there are some AHC studies based on epidemic disease [2, 14, 15], it is the first time to apply exponential smoothing method and SARIMA model for the incidence of AHC in Chongqing. This study used monthly incidence of AHC from 2004 to 2017 as a training set for fitting SARIMA model and Holt-Winters exponential smoothing model.…”

Acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis is a highly contagious eye disease, the prediction of acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis is very important to prevent and grasp its development trend. We use the exponential smoothing model and the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model to analyse and predict. The monthly incidence data from 2004 to 2017 were used to fit two models, the actual incidence of acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis in 2018 was used to validate the model. Finally, the prediction effect of exponential smoothing is best, the mean square error and the mean absolute percentage error were 0.0152 and 0.1871, respectively. In addition, the incidence of acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis in Chongqing had a seasonal trend characteristic, with the peak period from June to September each year.

BackgroundHuman adenovirus (HAdV)-associated acute conjunctivitis is a common infectious disease and causes significant morbidity among residents in Beijing, China. However, little is known about the epidemiology and type distribution of acute adenoviral conjunctivitis in Beijing.MethodsAcute conjunctivitis surveillance was conducted in 18 hospitals in Beijing from July through October during 2011–2013. HAdVs were detected by PCR from eye swab and types were determined by partial hexon and fiber gene sequencing. Risk factors associated with adenoviral conjunctivitis were analyzed.ResultsOf 876 conjunctivitis cases, 349 (39.8%) were HAdV positive. HAdV detection was most common in conjunctivitis patients aged 18–40 years; patients with contact history with a conjunctivitis case; patients with specimen collected on days 4–6 post symptom onset and patients who worked in food service as catering attendants. Fifteen types were identified among adenoviral conjunctivitis cases. Five HAdV types (HAdV-4, − 37, − 53, − 64 and − 8) accounted for 81.1% of all adenoviral conjunctivitis cases. HAdV-37, − 4 and − 53 were the most common types associated with adenoviral conjunctivitis in 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.ConclusionMultiple HAdV types were associated with acute conjunctivitis in Beijing. Predominant types associated with adenoviral conjunctivitis circulating in Beijing varied from year to year.
