总死亡率数据不能告诉我们艾滋病死亡率是否一致下降，或者是否存在空间差异。共有2432名男性和1864名女性死于艾滋病（2000-2004年）在清莱被用来检测死亡率集群。男性和女性集群或多或少都在同一地点，这意味着类似的风险因素;然而，男性集群仍然更普遍，因为男性患者可能接受治疗的速度较慢。调查结果表明，这是一种非随机的聚集现象，并证实，尽管大多数地区的死亡率大幅下降，但一些分区仍需注意开展后续公共卫生工作。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Aggregate mortality data do not tell us if AIDS mortality is uniformly reduced or if there is spatial differentiation. A total of 2432 male and 1864 female deaths (2000-2004) from AIDS in Chiang Rai are used to detect mortality clusters. Both male and female clusters are more or less in the same location implying similar risk factors; however, male clusters remain more prevalent as male patients are likely to be slower in getting treatment. The findings indicate non-random clustering and confirm that although mortality rates are significantly reduced in most areas some sub-districts need attention for follow-up public health efforts.
