Statistical Problems and Strategies in Environmental Epidemiology

Anonymous statistical methods versus cryptographic methods in epidemiology

Sensitive data are most often indirectly identifiable and so need to be rendered anonymous in order to ensure privacy. Statistical methods to provide anonymity require data perturbation and so generate data processing difficulties. Encryption methods, while preserving confidentiality, do not require data modification.

An Introduction to Epidemiologic and Statistical Methods Useful in Environmental Epidemiology

Many developments in the design and analysis of environmental epidemiology have been made in air pollution studies. In the analysis of the short-term effects of particulate matter on daily mortality, Poisson regression models with flexible smoothing methods have been developed for the analysis of time-series data. Another option for such studies is the use of case-crossover designs, and there h...
