Seasonality in the diagnosis of acute lymphocytic leukaemia.

P Badrinath1, N E Day, D Stockton.   

Abstract

Literature on seasonality of leukaemia shows conflicting results. We analysed the month of diagnosis of acute leukaemia in East Anglia, UK, for the period 1971-94, which showed a significant 40% summer excess (P < 0.001) for acute lymphocytic leukaemia both in children (P < 0.01) and adults (P = 0.01). Methodology, results and possible aetiological interpretations are presented.
