Cardiovascular manifestations and electrocardiographic abnormalities have been reported among some prevalent infections in tropical regions, which lead to a great amount of morbidity and mortality. The major infectious diseases include chikungunya, dengue fever, H1N1 influenza, and coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) in the viral category, leptospirosis, salmonellosis, scrub typhus and tuberculosis in the bacterial category, and malaria in the protozoan parasite category. All these infirmities constitute a foremost infection burden worldwide and have been linked to the various cardiac rhythm aberrancies. So we aimed to identify and compile different studies on these infections and associated acute electrocardiographic (ECG) changes. The search was made in online international libraries like PubMed, Google Scholar, and EMBASE, and 38 most relevant articles, including original research, systematic reviews, and unique case reports were selected. All of them were evaluated thoroughly and information regarding ECG was collected. Myocarditis is the predominant underlying pathology for rhythm disturbance and can be affected either due to the direct pathogenic effect or the abnormal immune system activation. ECG variabilities in some infections like chikungunya, scrub typhus, and leptospirosis are associated with longer hospital stay and poor outcome. Tropical infective diseases are associated with prominent acute cardiac rhythm abnormalities due to myocarditis, which can be identified preliminarily by ECG changes.

目的 探讨石家庄市正定县空气污染物对湿疹日门诊量的影响.方法 收集正定县2017年1月1日至2019年12月31日的湿疹门诊数据以及同期空气污染物数据(PM10、PM2.5、SO2和NO2)和气象因素数据(日均气温、日均相对湿度).利用广义相加模型分别建立单污染物模型和双污染物模型,分析空气污染物与湿疹日门诊量之间的关系,并按照性别、年龄进行分层分析.结果 单污染物模型显示,空气污染物PM10、PM2.5、SO2和NO2浓度每增加10 μg/m3,湿疹日门诊量分别升高0.60%(95%CI:0.16%~1
