Cluster Analysis
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Cluster Analysis'A set of statistical methods used to group variables or observations into strongly inter-related subgroups. In epidemiology, it may be used to analyze a closely grouped series of events or cases of disease or other health-related phenomenon with well-defined distribution patterns in relation to time or place or both. Common names: Cluster Analysis; Analyses, Cluster; Analysis, Cluster; Cluster Analyses; Clustering; Clusterings; Disease Clustering; Clustering, Disease; Clusterings, Disease; Disease Clusterings |

Macroscopic (millimeter scale) functional clustering is a hallmark characteristic of motor cortex spatial organization in awake behaving mammals; however, almost no information is known about the functional micro-organization (approximately 100 ... Read more...
Density of tobacco retailers near schools: effects on tobacco use among students.
30 Oct 2009
OBJECTIVES: We examined the relationship between students' tobacco use and the density and proximity of tobacco retailers near their schools. METHODS: We used data from the 2003-2004 California Student Tobacco Survey and California retail licensing ... Read more...
Common candidate gene variants are associated with QT interval duration in the general population.
23 Oct 2009
OBJECTIVES: QT interval prolongation is associated with increased risk of sudden cardiac death at the population level. As 30-40% of the QT-interval variability is heritable, we tested the association of common LQTS and NOS1AP gene variants with QT ... Read more...
