可靠的国家以下各级死亡率估计数对于研究一个国家内的健康不平等现象至关重要。编制这类估计数的困难之一是人口较少,其中死亡人数的随机变化相对较大,因此基本的死亡率水平不清楚。我们提出了一个贝叶斯层次模型来估计在国家以下一级的死亡率。该模型建立在死亡率曲线的特征年龄模式上,死亡率曲线是使用一组参考死亡率曲线的主成分构建的。关于死亡率的信息汇集在不同地理空间,并随着时间的推移而平滑。该模型的测试表明,合理的估计和不确定性水平时,它被应用到模拟数据,模仿美国县和法国省的真实的数据。模型估计数可直接应用于分区域健康模式和差异的研究。
Reliable subnational mortality estimates are essential in the study of health inequalities within a country. One of the difficulties in producing such estimates is the presence of small populations among which the stochastic variation in death counts is relatively high, and thus the underlying mortality levels are unclear. We present a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate mortality at the subnational level. The model builds on characteristic age patterns in mortality curves, which are constructed using principal components from a set of reference mortality curves. Information on mortality rates are pooled across geographic space and are smoothed over time. Testing of the model shows reasonable estimates and uncertainty levels when it is applied both to simulated data that mimic U.S. counties and to real data for French départements. The model estimates have direct applications to the study of subregional health patterns and disparities.
