Spatial Poisson regression : Bayesian approach correcting for measurement error with applications.
… count data. McBride (2006) proposed a Bayesian Poisson regression model which accounts for overdispersion in count data. We extend this model by adding parameters to accommodate the problems associated with under and over reporting in the count data. We then study the model's coverage, power, …

Lyme Disease Emergence in Virginia: An Examination of the Demographic and Environmental Variables Correlated to the Spatial Pattern of Disease Incidence
… census tracts. Analysis was carried out using a spatial Poisson regression model. Of the original 15 variables, 10 were significantly correlated to Lyme disease. The six that were positively correlated with disease incidence include percent herbaceous land, percent water, two edge contrast …

Spatial analysis of ischemic heart disease in Manitoba
… project was to use statistical tools to detect spatial and temporal patterns of IHD in Manitoba. The objectives were to: (1) detect geographic clusters of acute myocardial infarctions (AMI) within Manitoba; (2) assess whether IHD is related to the geographic distribution of some its well-known …

Future Lyme Disease Risk in the Southeastern United States Based on Projected Land Cover
… in previous research were used to develop a spatial Poisson regression model to project Lyme disease incidence for each decade to the year 2100. Results indicated that potential land cover suitability for Lyme disease transmission will increase under two scenarios (A1B and A2) while potential …
