After record-linkage, 373 of the 780 LD patients identified were notified. Ascertained under-notification was 52\u00b72%. Because of expected and observed regional differences in the incidence rate of LD, alternatively to conventional log-linear capture\u2013recapture models, a covariate (region) capture\u2013recapture model, not previously used for estimating infectious disease incidence, was specified and estimated 886 LD patients (95% confidence interval 827\u20131022). Estimated under-notification was 57\u00b79%. Notified, ascertained and estimated average annual incidence rates of LD were 1\u00b715, 2\u00b742 and 2\u00b777\/100 000 inhabitants respectively, with the highest incidence in the southern region of The Netherlands. Covariate capture\u2013recapture analysis acknowledging regional differences of LD incidence appears to reduce bias in the estimated national incidence rate.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0950268807008977","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,22]],"date-time":"2007-06-22T09:36:43Z","timestamp":1182505003000},"page":"540-550","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Incidence and completeness of notification of Legionnaires' disease in The Netherlands: covariate capture\u2013recapture analysis acknowledging regional differences"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"136","author":[{"given":"N.\u00a0A.\u00a0H.","family":"VAN HEST","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.\u00a0J.\u00a0P.\u00a0A.","family":"HOEBE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.\u00a0W.","family":"DEN BOER","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.\u00a0K.","family":"VERMUNT","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E.\u00a0P.\u00a0F.","family":"IJZERMAN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"W.\u00a0G.","family":"BOERSMA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.\u00a0H.","family":"RICHARDUS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref023","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/2556173"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref018","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.aje.a009825"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref033","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1997.00440360129015"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref046","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/29.6.1053"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref042","first-page":"415","article-title":"Undetected burden of tuberculosis in a low-prevalence area","volume":"10","author":"Baussano","year":"2006","journal-title":"International Journal of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref045","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1138","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.aje.a009077","article-title":"Validity of methods for model selection, weighing for model uncertainty and small sample adjustments in capture\u2013recapture estimation","volume":"145","author":"Regal","year":"1997","journal-title":"American Journal of Epidemiology"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref009","volume-title":"Controlling Legionnaire's Disease","year":"2003"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref004","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3201\/eid0801.010176"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref044","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10654-006-0020-z"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref017","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0950268802007306"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref011","first-page":"591","article-title":"The multiple-recapture census for closed populations and the 2k incomplete contingency table","volume":"59","author":"Fienberg","year":"1972","journal-title":"Biometrika"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref028","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/thx.50.5.543"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref015","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/sim.996"},{"key":"S0950268807008977_ref027","unstructured":"27.\u00a0 Kool JL .
