H-2020 MOOD Scoping review of Leptospirosis, Influenza A and Chikungunya on the environmental covariates

The dataset contains quantitative data on the environmental covariates associated with influenza A, Chikungunya, and Leptospirosis retrieved from scientific papers through a standardized search on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus. Inclusion criteria were data on the association between disease and covariates, language (English or other EU languages), time frame (30 years), geographical location (Europe), and publication type. Studies without data or with non-original or duplicated data (reviews, editorials, letters, modeling studies with no data), lacking denominators or reference populations, unavailable full-texts, referring to data older than 2000 or gathered outside Europe, were excluded. The final time frame covered a period from 2000 to 2022.

The important environmental covariates were extracted with the associated quantitative information, and the related information on the diseases. The covariates were submitted to a revision process to label them according to a labeling system agreed upon among a group of experts within the MOOD (grant agreement No 874850; https://mood-h2020.eu/) project consortium.
