Abstract

The monitoring and control of malaria depends largely on the spatial analysis technology and mathematical models. Visualization of malaria situation is the most popular way to present how malaria transmits. In this paper, the malaria epidemic situation and the application of spatial epidemiology of malaria in China are summarized, so as to provide the systematic epidemiological information for malaria elimination in China.

[摘要] 疟疾疫情的监测与控制, 离不开空间分析技术的发展以及模型分析的应用; 疫情的可视化是疟疾疫情的传播与 流行最直观的表现方式, 将是今后监测与防控的重点, 成为空间流行病学在疟疾疫情中的应用之一。本文综述了空间流 行病学在我国疟疾疫情研究中的应用以及分析预测方法等, 旨在为我国消除疟疾提供更为系统与完善的流行病学方法 学参考。.
