        Background: Deep neck space abscesses are a significant medical issue, but their seasonality and climatic associations remain unclear. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the seasonality of deep neck space abscesses and identify associated climatic factors using a nationwide, population-based dataset. Material and methods: We utilized Korean National Health Insurance data (2010–2019) to identify patients with peritonsillar, retropharyngeal, and parapharyngeal abscesses (J36, J39.0, J39.1). Seasonality was assessed by calculating the ratio of the highest to lowest monthly incidence. Multivariate canonical correlation analysis (CCA) evaluated associations with climatic factors, including temperature, humidity, precipitation, sunlight, ground temperature, particulate matter (<10 µm), ultraviolet A dose, and daily temperature range. Results: The incidence of deep neck space abscesses peaked in winter and was lowest in summer, with seasonality ratios of 2.03 (peritonsillar) and 2.15 (retropharyngeal and parapharyngeal). CCA demonstrated a strong correlation between climatic factors and abscess incidence. The two canonical roots had high canonical coefficients R of 0.7996 and 0.5542, respectively (p < 0.0001 and <0.0001). Conclusion and significance: This large population-based study highlights the seasonality and climatic relevance of deep neck space abscesses. Further research is needed to explore demographic factors affecting incidence.
        颈部深间隙脓肿是一个重要的医学问题, 但其季节性以及与气候的相关性尚不清楚。 本研究旨在利用全国人口数据集, 探讨颈部深间隙脓肿的季节性, 并识别相关的气候因素。 我们利用2010-2019年韩国国民健康保险数据, 识别出患有扁桃体周围脓肿、咽后脓肿和咽旁脓肿(J36、J39.0、J39.1)的患者。通过计算每月最高发病率与最低发病率的比率来评估季节性。多元典型相关分析(CCA)评估了颈部深间隙脓肿与气候因素的关联, 包括温度、湿度、降水、日照、地温、颗粒物(<10µm)、紫外线A剂量和日温差。 颈部深间隙脓肿发病率冬季最高, 夏季最低, 季节性比值分别为2.03(扁桃体周围脓肿)和2.15(咽后和咽旁脓肿)。CCA显示气候因素与脓肿发病率之间存在很强的相关性。两个典型根具有较高的典型系数R, 分别为0.7996和0.5542(p < 0.0001和<0.0001)。 这项大规模人群研究强调了颈部深间隙脓肿的季节性和气候相关性。需要进一步研究来探索影响发病率的人口统计学因素。
