Case Control
compares diseased group to healthy group
measures odds ratio
"what happened"
Cohort
compares group with risk factor to group without
measures relative risk
"what will happen"
Cross-sectional
Collects information from a group about disease and risk factors at a specific point in time.
measures prevalence
"what is happening"
Phase 1
small, healthy voluneers
assesses safety, kinetics
Phase 2
small, diseased patients
asseses efficacy, regimen, adverse effects
Phase 3
large, diseased patients
compares new treatment to standard of care
best if randomized, double blinded
Odds ratio
odds of disease (a/b) in exposed group
------------------------------------------------
odds of disease (c/d) in unexposed group

for case control studies
Relative risk
% with disease in exposed group (a/a+b)
------------------------------------------------
% with disease in unexposed group (c/c+d)

for cohort
Attributable risk
exposed risk - unexposed risk
late look bias
info gathered at an inappropriate time
confounding bias
2 closely related factors, one can distort or confuse the other
lead-time bias
early detection mistaken for longer survival
Pygmalion effect
researcher's belief in the efficacy of a treatment changes the outcome
Hawthorne effect
group being studied changes its behavior to meet the expectations of the researcher
Type 1 error
alpha
finding a difference when there is none
p
the probability of making a type 1 error (finding difference where none exists)
Type 2 error
beta
accepting the null hypothesis when a difference does exist
power
1- beta
probability of finding a difference where there is one (true positive)
3 factors power depends on
size of sample
expected size of effect
difference in means of populations
standard error of the mean
SD/root(n)
how much of a population is within 1SD of the mean? 2? 3?
within 1 SD: 68%
2 SD: 95%
3 SD: 99.7%
Confidence interval
range of values in which a given percentage of the population would be expected to fall
CI = mean +/- z(SEM)
if it includes 0 (looking at mean differences) or 1 (looking at odds rations or relative risk) there is no significant difference
t-test
compares the means of 2 groups
ANOVA
compares the means of 3 or more groups
chi squared
compares differences in 2 or more percentages or proportions of categorical outcomes
requirements for negligence
Duty that was
Derelicted that caused
Damage as a
Direct consequence
