艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关结果的空间分析作为一种工具越来越受欢迎,可以用来了解疫情的地理变化,并了解社区预防和治疗方案的有效性。城市健康研究是一项对1987至2005年间旧金山注射吸毒者(IDU)进行的一系列横断面流行病学研究(N=29,914)。对每个参与者进行了艾滋病毒检测。对于数据集中的每一次观察,参与者的住所都被地理编码到美国人口普查区域的水平。使用局部空间自相关指标(LISA)检验来确定两个时间段内HIV阳性注射人群的单变量和双变量人口普查区域集群。我们进一步比较了聚集区和非聚集区的三个地区水平特征(贫困百分比、非裔美国人百分比和失业率)。我们发现早期(1987-1995年)和晚期(1996-2005年)艾滋病毒阳性注射吸毒者数量较高的空间聚集性显著。我们发现,与周围地区相比,HIV阳性注射人群和地区贫困水平高于平均水平的人口普查地区有显着的二元聚集性。我们的数据表明,贫困,而不是种族,是与艾滋病在SF的空间分布及其随时间的空间扩散相关的重要邻里特征。
Spatial analyses of HIV/AIDS related outcomes are growing in popularity as a tool to understand geographic changes in the epidemic and inform the effectiveness of community-based prevention and treatment programs. The Urban Health Study was a serial, cross-sectional epidemiological study of injection drug users (IDUs) in San Francisco between 1987 and 2005 (N = 29,914). HIV testing was conducted for every participant. Participant residence was geocoded to the level of the United States Census tract for every observation in dataset. Local indicator of spatial autocorrelation (LISA) tests were used to identify univariate and bivariate Census tract clusters of HIV positive IDUs in two time periods. We further compared three tract level characteristics (% poverty, % African Americans, and % unemployment) across areas of clustered and non-clustered tracts. We identified significant spatial clustering of high numbers of HIV positive IDUs in the early period (1987–1995) and late period (1996–2005). We found significant bivariate clusters of Census tracts where HIV positive IDUs and tract level poverty were above average compared to the surrounding areas. Our data suggest that poverty, rather than race, was an important neighborhood characteristic associated with the spatial distribution of HIV in SF and its spatial diffusion over time.
