Epidemiology
Debian Med: Pakete mit Bezug zur Epidemiologie
Dieses Metapaket wird nützliche Werkzeuge für die epidemiologische
Forschung
installieren. Verschiedene Pakete nutzen die Datensprache GNU R für
statistische Untersuchungen. Es könnte eine gute Idee sein, den Artikel
»A short introduction to R for Epidemiology« bei
http://staff.pubhealth.ku.dk/%7Ebxc/Epi/R-intro.pdf zu lesen.
The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Med Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian Med which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Med
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Med mailing list

Epigrass ist eine Software für die Visualisierung, Analyse und Simulation
von epidemischen Prozessen in georeferenzierten Netzen.
EpiGrass kann mit GRASS GIS interagieren, von wo es Karten und ähnliche
geografische Informationen übernehmen kann. Trotzdem ist für die Nutzung
der meisten Features von EpiGrass die Installation von GRASS GIS nicht
erforderlich.
The package is enhanced by the following packages:

Mit dem GNU-R-Paket DiagnosisMed kann die Genauigkeit von diagnostischen Tests
zur Evaluation von Gesundheitszuständen analysiert werden. Es wurde zur
Benutzung durch Gesundheitsexperten entworfen. Dieses Paket kann die
Empfindlichkeit und Spezifität von kategorialen und stetigen Testergebnissen
schätzen inklusive der Auswertung von unbestimmten Ergebnissen. Es kann
außerdem verschiedene kategoriale Tests vergleichen, sinnvolle
Ausschlussbedingungen für Tests abschätzen und das Ganze so darstellen, wie es
im Allgemeinen von Gesundheitsexperten genutzt wird. Noch ist keine grafische
Benutzerschnittstelle verfügbar.

Funktionen für demographische und epidemiologische Analysen im
Lexis-Diagramm, das heißt »register and cohort follow-up data, inklusive
intervall-zensierte Daten und Darstellung von »multistate«-Daten. Außerdem
sind einige nützliche Funktionen zur Tabellierung und zum Plotten
vorhanden. Enthält einige epidemiologische Datensätze.
Das Epi-Paket ist hauptsächlich auf die »klassische« Epidemiologie für
chronische Krankheiten fixiert. Das Paket ist aus dem Kurs »Statistical
Practice in Epidemiology using R« (siehe
http://www.pubhealth.ku.dk/~bxc/SPE) entstanden.
Es gibt eine kurze Anleitung für Epidemiologie in R unter
http://staff.pubhealth.ku.dk/%7Ebxc/Epi/R-intro.pdf. Die Seiten 38-120
dieses Dokuments sind lediglich das Handbuch für das Epi-Paket.
Epi ist nicht das einzige R-Paket für epidemiologische Analysen. Das
ebenfalls in Debian verfügbare Paket epitools beschäftigt sich mehr mit
ansteckenden Krankheiten.
Epi wird in der Universität Kopenhagen von der Abteilung Biostatistik
verwendet.

Elementary Epidemiological Functions for a Graduate Epidemiology /
Biostatistics Course.
This package contains elementary tools for analysis of common epidemiological
problems, ranging from sample size estimation, through 2x2 contingency table
analysis and basic measures of agreement (kappa, sensitivity/specificity).
Appropriate print and summary statements are also written to facilitate
interpretation wherever possible. This package is a work in progress, so
any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Source code is commented
throughout to facilitate modification. The target audience includes graduate
students in various epi/biostatistics courses.
Epibasix was developed in Canada.

GNU-R-Werkzeuge für Epidemiologen und Daten-Analytiker im öffentlichen
Gesundheitswesen. Epitools bietet numerische Werkzeuge und
Programmierlösungen, die in realen epidemiologischen Anwendungen
eingesetzt und getestet wurden.
Viele praktische Probleme bei der Analyse von Daten zur öffentlichen
Gesundheit erfordern Programmierkenntnisse oder spezielle Software. Daher
könnten Forscher an verschiedenen Orten mehrfach die Lösung der gleichen
Aufgabe programmieren. Oft werden einfache Auswertungen, wie die
Bestimmung von Konfidenzintervallen, unterlassen und erschweren dadurch
entsprechende statistische Rückschlüsse für kleine geographische Bereiche.
Es gibt viele Beispiele für einfache und nützliche numerische Werkzeuge,
die die Arbeit der Epidemiologen lokaler Gesundheitsbehörden verbessern
würden. Diese Werkzeuge stehen aber noch nicht für die Lösung der
aktuellen Probleme zur Verfügung. Die Verfügbarkeit dieser Werkzeuge wird
die breitere Anwendung geeigneter Methoden und indizienbasierter Praktiken
im Gesundheitswesen fördern.

The R-package 'surveillance' is a framework for the development and the
evaluation of outbreak detection algorithms in univariate and multivariate
routine collected public health surveillance data. It is hosted on CRAN..
The intention of the R-package surveillance is to provide open source
software for the visualization and monitoring of count data time series
in public health surveillance. Potential users are epidemiologists and
others working in applied infectious disease epidemiology.
Furthermore, surveillance also provides a data structure and framework
for methodological developments of surveillance algorithms.

Netepi-analysis
network-enabled tools for epidemiology and public health practice
|
License: HACOS
Debian package not available
Version: 0.9.0-1
|
|
NetEpi, which is short for "Network-enabled Epidemiology", is a
collaborative project to create a suite of free, open source software
tools for epidemiology and public health practice. Anyone with an
interest in population health epidemiology or public health
informatics is encouraged to examine the prototype tools and to
consider contributing to their further development. Contributions
which involve formal and/or informal testing of the tools in a wide
range of circumstances and environments are particularly welcome, as
is assistance with design, programming and documentation tasks.
This is a tool for conducting epidemiological analysis of data sets,
both large and small, either through a Web browser interface, or via
a programmatic interface. In many respects it is similar to the
analysis facilities included in the Epi Info suite, except that
NetEpi Analysis is designed to be installed on servers and accessed
remotely via Web browsers, although it can also be installed on
individual desktop or laptop computers.
The software was developed by New South Wales Department of Health.

NetEpi, which is short for "Network-enabled Epidemiology", is a
collaborative project to create a suite of free, open source software
tools for epidemiology and public health practice. Anyone with an

which involve formal and/or informal testing of the tools in a wide
range of circumstances and environments are particularly welcome, as
is assistance with design, programming and documentation tasks.
NetEpi Case Manager is a tool for securely collecting structured
information about cases and contacts of communicable (and other)
diseases through Web browsers and the Internet. New data collection
forms can be designed and deployed quickly by epidemiologists, using
a "point-and-click" interface, without the need for knowledge of or
training in any programming language. Data can then be collected from
users of the system, who can be located anywhere in the world, into a
centralised database. All that is needed by users of the system is a
relatively recent Web browser and an Internet connection ("NetEpi" is
short for "Network-enabled Epidemiology"). In many respects, NetEpi
Case Manager is like a Web-enabled version of the data entry
facilities in the very popular Epi Info suite of programmes published
by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and in the
Danish EpiData project, which is available for several languages. The
software was developed by the Centre for Epidemiology and Research of
the New South Wales Department of Health, with contributions from
Population Health Division of the Australian Government Department of
Health and Ageing.
The software was developed by New South Wales Department of Health.
