What patterns do you detect? Often in disease outbreak investigations we want to see a pattern for a particular problem. Think back to the 'white board' approach from a previous question and consider the types of information about individuals that may help you look for patterns. Select from the list below attributes that may help you You can chosse all or some I choose Time of disease onset and occuption but there is more I guess Occupation Hair color Gender Weight Age Time of disease onset

Your screening facility can process 1,000 people per week. Assume you are attempting the early detection of a disease with a prevalence of 2%, and your test has a sensitivity of 95% and a specificity of 90%. D- what is the positive predictive value of the screening test? E- what is the negative predictive value of the screening test? F- what would happen to the negative predictive value of the screening test if the prevalence was 5%?
Question:- Epidemiologists can predict disease transmission pattern based on age-specific incidence, geographic area and demographic characteristics. If a disease can happen at any location that has high density of human populations, regardless of climate and other environmental factors: What transmission pattern that you would suspect to occur in the area.
D5) Incidence Computation The sum of the years "at-risk" of these 12 courses is 102 students-years and there were 3 occurrences of the disease. We can now compute the incidence rate. (One decimal place only, no need to include "%" sign)
There are multiple epidemiologic study designs. Study designs can be categorized as an experimental or observational design. What is the primary difference between the two? (Choose the one best answer) 1. In an experimental design, the outcome/disease is assigned 2. In an observational design, the outcome/disease is assigned 3. In an experimental design, the exposure/treatment is assigned 4. In an observational design, the exposure/treatment is assigned 5. They are both epidemiologic study designs without a distinct difference
Please answer fast 233. Which of the following statements about ethics and epidemiology is TRUE? Choose one: a. The Tuskegee Syphilis Study was ethical because men who did not receive treatment with the antibiotics were probably not harmed. b. The portion on the use of aspirin to prevent heart disease of the Physicans* Health Study was was stopped early because a relative risk of 0.56 was found. c.
