利用1984年至1987年纽约州医疗补助数据，我们分析了获得性免疫缺陷综合征(AIDS)患者的住院时间模式。我们发现，每月平均停留时间总体上有所下降，季节性波动导致秋季和冬季的停留时间更长。这些发现表明，艾滋病患者的医院利用率正在随着时间的推移而变化，可能会因季节而异。
Using New York State Medicaid data from 1984 to 1987, we analyzed hospital length-of-stay patterns for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients. We found an overall decline in monthly average length of stay, with seasonal fluctuations producing longer stays in the fall and winter months. These findings suggest that hospital utilization for AIDS patients is changing over time and may vary by season.
