Research on the Spatial-Temporal Evolution and Influencing Factors of Urban Medical and Health Resources:A Case Study of the Main Urban Area of Hefei City
Taking the main urban area of Hefei city as an example,this paper analyzes the spatial evolution of this city's medical and healthcare resources in 2012,2017 and 2022,using POI data and combining kernel density analysis,standard deviation ellipse and spatial autocorrelation,and explores the influencing factors of the medical and healthcare resources by combining with the geo-detector.The results show that:(1)In terms of spatial pattern,the medical and health resources in Hefei city have evolved from the initial pattern of"one core,two pieces and one axis with multiple points of concentration"to the pattern of"three cores,four pieces and four axes with multiple points of agglomeration".(2)In the direction of spatial evolution,medical and healthcare resources in Hefei city are roughly distributed in the northeast-southwest direction,with a weaker development trend in the north-south direction.(3)In terms of spatial agglomeration characteristics,the medical and health resources in Hefei city exhibit obvious homogenized agglomeration,showing a trend of enhancement.(4)Hospitals and other diagnosis and treatment health resources in Hefei city exhibit an obvious outward trend of centripetal agglomeration with lower density,while medicine and physical therapy health resources exhibit an obvious trend of centripetal agglomeration with high density.(5)Urban consumption level,residential density,transportation service capacity and other factors have a greater impact on the distribution of medical and health resources in Hefei.
