Editor's Notes
- Disaggregation and target areas, based on more specific locational data of incidences, and where to specify intervention. We can always aggregate back up – get as small as possible.
- The issue of infant mortality cuts across jurisdictional boundaries. Predictive Kriging at the block group level. Police model: With high-probability, the next infant deaths will be in this area. Using this for grants.
- Mean-weighted centers. Clusters helping for clinic placement.
- 1200 to 2000 women walking around with undiagnosed breast cancer. Residual analysis compared between Northern VA and the state standard, we determined that there are potentially X amount of undiagnosed breast cancer incidences. This relates back to the fact that we know, through the Cancer Registry, that we have very high levels of late-stage breast cancer in these areas. High percentage of late-stage diagnosis of breast cancer in other data. The next slide shows the mortality data that confirms this slide.
