传染病的传播与流行是一个复杂的过程,如何定量描述传染病时空分布、分析其与周围环境的关系,是当下研究的重要问题。在结核病的研究中,空间统计分析方法的使用不仅能探索疾病的时空分布模式、构建其与环境变量的统计关系,同时能探测疾病的潜在风险区,为结核病的预防控制提供科学依据。本文将就空间统计分析方法在结核病研究中的应用进行介绍。
The spread and prevalence of infectious diseases is a complicated process. How to quantitatively describe the temporal and spatial distribution of infectious diseases, as well as to analyze the relationship between them and the surrounding is a hotspot for current research. In the study of tuberculosis, spatial statistical analysis could be used to explore patterns of temporal and spatial distribution, to form statistical relationship between them and environmental variables, and predict potential risk factors, all of which are helpful to tuberculosis control and prevention, This study aimed to describe the applications of spatial statistical analysis in tuberculosis research.
