Analítica de datos: incidencia de la contaminación ambiental en la salud pública en Medellín (Colombia)

Resumen

Correlation coefficients were found that show the association of the concentration of PM2,5 with the attendances for the diagnoses of ARI, COPD, and asthma. The highest correlation between the three morbidities was found for asthma. The meteorological variable with the highest correlation with the objective variable is air temperature in the case of COPD and asthma. In the case of IRA, the variable with the highest correlation is wind speed. On the other hand, the day of the week is a variable of great importance when carrying out a study of care for diseases.
