Abstract:
In March 2013 an outbreak of avian influenza A(H7N9) was first recognized in China. To date there have been 130 cases in human, almost half of which are in men over the age of 55.The influenza strain is a novel subtype not seen before in humans; little is known about zoonotic transmission of the virus, but it is hypothesized that contact with poultry in live bird markets may be a source of exposure. The purpose of this study is to estimate the transmissibility of the virus from poultry to humans by estimating the amount of time shoppers, farmers, and live bird market retailers spend exposed to poultry each day. Results suggest that risk among older men is not due to greater exposure time at live bird markets.

随附于《PLoS Currents Outbreaks》手册的稿件之中（详见下述链接）。所有以.csv结尾的文件均为单一数据表格（具体描述见README文件）。CombinedH7N9.xlsx文件则是将这些表格合并而成的单一Excel文件。README文件提供了详尽的数据描述，如遇疑问，请参阅该文件。该文件既以PDF格式提供，亦作为CombinedH7N9.xlsx文件中的一个表格存在。此外，最新的行列表信息可在此处查阅：http://figshare.com/articles/H7N9_Line_Listing/689887。

摘要：2013年3月，中国首次确认了禽流感A(H7N9)疫情的爆发。截至目前，已有130人感染，其中近半数为55岁以上的男性。该流感病毒株为一种新型亚型，此前在人类中未曾出现过；关于病毒的动物源性传播知之甚少，但假设与活禽市场的家禽接触可能是暴露的来源。本研究旨在通过估算购物者、农民和活禽市场零售商每天暴露于家禽的时间量，来估计该病毒从家禽传播至人类的能力。结果表明，老年男性的感染风险并非源于他们在活禽市场更长的暴露时间。
