Seasonality of hypoplastic left heart syndrome in the United States: A 10-year time– series analysis  Pirooz Eghtesady, MD, PhD, Anoop Brar, PhD, Matthew Hall, PhD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 141, Issue 2, Pages 432-438 (February 2011) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2010.06.060 Copyright © 2011 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Seasonal trends in birth months (1996–2006). Model-based monthly estimates for the rates per 100,000 births for HLHS, CoA, congenital AS and IAA. The data show a seasonal trend in the occurrence of HLHS and CoA, but not in congenital AS or IAA. HLHS, Hypoplastic left heart syndrome; CoA, coarctation of the aorta; AS, aortic stenosis; IAA, interrupted aortic arch.
