目的：绘制南马托格罗索州美国内脏利什曼病（AVL）地图方法：使用地理信息系统绘制AVL分布图。结果：从1913年到1998年，该病在科龙巴地区流行。时空分析表明，该病在该州的传播和扩散是从西向东的，与三种不同的人类干预相吻合;其中两种，联邦公路和铁路公路，是在世纪早期建造的，从东到西，从圣保罗州的包鲁市到南南马托格罗索州的科伦巴市。第三次人为干预是1998年开始建造的一条天然气管道，吸引了数千名工人。这条建设路线具有相同的方向，西向东，和时间尺度所观察到的扩展和传播AVL.Conclusions：结果与疾病的扩展，以强烈的人流量沿着传播的路线。(c)2006年，英国传染病协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Objectives: To map American Visceral Leishmaniasis (AVL) in Mato Grosso do Sul State (Central Brazil).Methods: The distribution of AVL was mapped, using the Geographic Information System.Results: The disease was endemic to the Corumba Region from 1913 to 1998.Spatial and temporal analysis indicated that the expansion route and dissemination through the State of the disease has been from west to east, coinciding with three different human interventions; two of them, a federal highway and a rail-road, were constructed in the early twentieth century, from east to west, from Bauru city, in Sao Paulo State, to Corumba city, in Mato Grosso do Sul State. The third anthropogenic intervention was the construction of a gas pipeline that started in 1998, and attracted thousands of workers. This construction route has the same direction, west to east, and timescale as the observed expansion and dissemination of AVL.Conclusions: The results relate the expansion of the disease to intense human traffic along the route of spread.
