    Dengue incidence has grown dramatically around the world in recent years. It is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Many climatic factors contributed to the vector densities such as temperature, relative humidity, rainfall and winds. This study is to determine the trend of climatic factor associated with dengue cases. The analysis was performed by using Pearson’s Correlation and Mann-Kendall trend analysis from 2012 to 2016. The Pearson's Correlation showed that dengue cases in Kuala Lumpur were signifi cantly correlated with temperature, relative humidity and rainfall (p < 0.05).
