监测心肌梗死的发生率至关重要。通常情况下，死亡证明被用作发病率的代表，然而，这些被发现是粗略的，因为它们落后于发病率的变化。在过去的十年中，已经建立了几个心肌梗死登记处，但是，这些登记处在地理分布上仍然太有限，无法评估国家或全球心脏病发作的趋势。在这里，我们建议采用另一种方法，即捕获-标记-再捕获，将有助于在国家内部和国家之间提供准确的监测。这种方法将通过提供一种简单而廉价的方法来补充现有的登记，以提供广泛的地理区域和时间的准确心脏病发作数据。
It is critical to monitor the incidence of myocardial infarction. Typically, death certificates have been used as a proxy for incidence, however, these have been found to be crude as they lag behind changes in incidence. In the last decade several myocardial infarction registries have been established, however, these registries are still too limited in geographical spread to assess either national or global trends of heart attack. Here we suggest that employing an alter nate approach, that of capture-mark-recapture, would be helpful to provide accurate monitoring both within and bet ween countries. This method would complement existing registries by providing a simple and inexpensive means to provide accurate heart attack data across broad geographical areas and time.
