Sentence examples for moving average incidence from inspiring English sources

We also measured average annual percentage change (AAPC) in the 3 yr moving average incidence for all age-groups.

Table 2 presents an AAPC in 3-year moving average incidence of cervical cancer and HG-CIN to assess whether the change in incidence was steady over time in the different age groups of the NE.

We then measured an average annual percentage change (AAPC) in the 3-year moving average incidence rate for various age groups by fitting a regression line to the natural logarithm of the rates using calendar year as a regressor variable and allowing for significant trend changes between 2000 and 2009.

Increasing trends have been reported in the Netherlands, where one study noted a significant increase in the 3-year moving average incidence rate of penile squamous cell carcinoma between 1989 and 2006, with an estimated annual percentage of change of 1.3% [ 29].

The use of a moving average to infer incidence was appropriate because of the likelihood of offsetting errors in adjacent age intervals (see Supplementary Appendix 2).

Data on the incidence of GCA and RA for Olmsted County, Minnesota, in (1950 2004) and (1955 2007), respectively, were obtained from prior studies. 1 4 5 19 The yearly average and the yearly 3-year centred moving average of the incidence rates were computed.

Mid-year population estimates, derived from the Annual Reports of the Registrar General for Scotland (Registrar General for Scotland, 1976 2003), were used to calculate sex-specific, 5-year moving average age-adjusted incidence rates by direct standardisation to the World Population (Waterhouse et al., 1976).

We performed correlational analysis of [X t), Y(t−τ)], where X=the yearly or the yearly 3-year moving average GCA or RA incidence rate, Y=the yearly average of F10.7 or AL, t=time (year) and τ=lag=0 14 years.

For example, Gharbi et al. [ 36] fitted a seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model of dengue incidence and climate variables including temperature, rainfall and relative humidity in French West Indies for the period 2000 2006.

For the yearly 3-year moving average, the correlation of the RA incidence rate with F10.7 peaks at a lag of 3 years, which is significant (r=0.33, p<0.05; figure 2B). Figure 2C plots the two RA parameters and the yearly average AL, and figure 2D plots their lagged correlations.

The autoregression and moving average parameters of our model imply the incidence of HFRS in a month can be estimated by the residual occurring one month prior.
