The researchers warned that the Puerto Rico outcomes should be viewed with caution.

They acknowledged that El Niqo could still play a role undetected by this research.

However, as Pejman Rohani of the University of Michigan - uninvolved in the research - states in a related Perspective, the absence of a predictable link between El Niqo and dengue transmission "is an important piece of information for the development of early warning systems".

The research has been published in PLoS Medicine.
