Clusters of the patients with high LOSSDS. (A) Contour map of LOSSDS of the patients was produced by interpolation using the ordinary Kringing method. Dark contours represent the clustering of patients with high LOSSDS. Cross and arrow represent the locations of Niigata University Hospital and a focus of clustering of patients with high LOSSDS, respectively. (B) The arterial roads around the focus shown in (A) and their 1,000 meter buffer are shown. (C) Hospitals around the focus shown in (A). The focus is located in an area 30 min by car from the two hospitals a and b. The locations of the two hospitals and their 30-min areas are shown as bold crosses and hatch patterns. The small crosses represent other hospitals.
