Epidemiologistas devem ter conhecimentos de [Naomar, 2006, http://www.livrariaodontosites.com.br/produtos_descricao.asp?lang=pt_br&codigo_produto=66]: • SAÚDE PÚBLICA – devido a ênfase na prevenção de enfermidades. • MEDICINA CLÍNICA – devido a ênfase na classificação das doenças e seus diagnósticos. • FISIOPATOLOGIA – devido a necessidade de entender mecanismos biológicos básicos da doença. • ESTATÍSTICA – devido a necessidade de quantificar a freqüência das doenças e sua relação com os antecedentes. • CIÊNCIAS SOCIAIS – devido a necessidade de entender o contexto social no qual a doença ocorre e se apresenta.
What is statistics for epidemiologists? • a code! so “statistical epidemiology” is a redundancy... • a bit of philosophy of languages and codes... • Discrete versus continuous codes • Alphabet • Numbers • Languages

a cellular automaton • Cellular automaton A is a set of four objectsA = <G, Z, N, f>, where • G– set of cells • Z– set of possible cells states • N – set, which describes cells neighborhood • f– transition function, rules of the automaton: • Z|N|+1Z (for automaton, which has cells “with memory”) • Z|N|Z (for automaton, which has “memoryless” cells) Moore Neighbourhood (in grey) of the cell marked with a dot in a 2D square grid

the dynamics Mollusk population dynamics (3a) a growth model for the number of individuals (N) that considers the intrinsic growth rate (r) and the maximum sustainable yield or carrying capacity (C) defined at each site (Verhulst, 1838): the model calculates the local increase of population using equation 1 and calculating N(t+1) out from N(t). The values for r and C are set at each site and each time step, using monthly meteorological inputs and considering the ecological quality of the habitat (3b) (1) Human infection dynamics (SIR - SI) This model splits the human population into three compartments: S (for susceptible), I (for infectious) and R (for recovered and not susceptible to infection) and the snail population into two compartments: MS (for susceptible mollusk) and MI (for infectious mollusk). Socioeconomic and environmental factors environmental quality of the nine collection sites in Carne de Vaca, according to the criteria of Callisto et al (Souza et al, 2010).
Cells and infection forces • states • black: rate of human infection = 100%; • red: 80% ≤ rate of human infection < 100%; • light red: 60% ≤ rate of human infection < 80%; • yellow: 40% ≤ rate of human infection < 60%; • light yellow: 20% ≤ rate of human infection < 40%; • cyan: 0% ≤ rate of human infection < 20%. • infection forces • Human • S -> I (infected molluscs contact, pH) • I -> R (if treated (1-α), χ) • Molluscs • S -> I (infected human contact, pM)

simulations “according to the risk indicator, in the scattering diagram of Moran represented in the Box Map (Figure 2), indicated 18 areas of highest risk for the schistosomiasis, all located in the central sector of the village. Areas with lower risk and areas of intermediate risk for occurrence of the disease were located in the north and central portions with some irregularity in the distribution”
Simulations – previsibility... Predictive scenarios generated with the parameter calibration of the year 2007 that show endemic schistosomiasis. I stands for the average percentage of infected humans per spatial cell predicted by the model
