Figure 1 -. Aggregate Time Series of HZ and HZO Codes, Normalized Time Series of Average Monthly Incidence Rate of HZ Codes from 2006–2017 by Region, Normalized to Total Patient Encounters.
a.) Time series of normalized relative incidence for incident administrative codes for herpes zoster (ICD-9: 053.X and ICD-10: B02X) in the OLDW aggregated from 2006–2017.
b.) Time series of normalized relative incidence for incident administrative codes for herpes zoster ophthalmicus (ICD-9: 053.2 and ICD-10: B023.X) in the OLDW aggregated from 2006–2017. For both a.) and b.) nationwide rates are shown in black and normalized to national total monthly patient encounters and scaled to normalized relative incidence as described in the text. Regional rates are shown as colored (MW = Midwest, NE = Northeast, SO = South, WE = West) and each is normalized to its regional total monthly patient.
