Abstract

This paper is concerned with the formation of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) rates over time. Because of differential numbers of births throughout the year, a new SIDS rate is developed that takes into account the changing number of infants at risk and in particular the changing age distribution throughout the year. Differences between this newly adjusted rate and the commonly used unadjusted rates will be presented. Data from Minnesota linked birth--death records from 1990--1998 will be used for analysis.

摘要

本文关注婴儿猝死综合征（SIDS）发生率随时间的变化情况。由于全年出生人数存在差异，因此开发了一种新的SIDS发生率，该发生率考虑了处于风险中的婴儿数量变化，尤其是全年不断变化的年龄分布。将展示这种新调整后的发生率与常用的未调整发生率之间的差异。来自明尼苏达州1990年至1998年的关联出生-死亡记录数据将用于分析。
