Introduction
• Epidemiology is basic science concerned with the pattern of disease in human population.
• Distribution of disease by person, place, and time.
• Assumptions - Disease does not occur randomly- Disease has identifiable cause
> can be altered> prevent from development

Epidemiology is defined as…
The study of the distribution and determinants of health-related states or events in specified population, and the application of this study to control of health problems.

Epidemiology is defined as… (cont’d)• Study
surveillance, observation, hypothesis testing, analytic research, and experiments.
• Distribution analysis by time, place, and person.
• Determinants physical, biological, social, cultural, and behavioral factors that influence health.
• Health-related states or events diseases, causes of death, behavior, reactions to preventive regimens, and provision and use of health services.

Epidemiology is defined as… (cont’d)• Specified populations
those groups of people with identifiable characteristics
• Application to controlrefers to the goal of epidemiology, that is to assess the public health importance of diseases, identify the population at risk, identify the causes of disease, describe the natural history of disease, and evaluate the prevention and control of disease
![Page 6: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Clinical Epidemiology
• Applying population-based information to optimize patient care.
• Use epidemiological methods in clinical setting.
• The basis of evidence-based medicine.

How is epidemiology used in clinical medicine ?• Describe the natural history of disease.• Discuss the causality of disease.• Provide disease surveillance.• Evaluate diagnostic testing.• Evaluate therapy of disease• Evaluate prognosis of disease.• Economic evaluation and decision
analysis.

- Cause of disease• Experimental epidemiology
- Assessment of therapy
![Page 9: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Epidemiological analysis
• Measure of disease frequency.• Magnitude of association.• Statistical association.• Regard to bias, confounding, and
chance.
![Page 10: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Research Designs Used in Epidemiology• Case reports / case series• Case control• Cross-sectional• Cohort : Prospective and
Retrospective.• Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT)• Secondary analysis
![Page 11: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Epidemiologic Terms
• Chance• Bias• Confounding• Frequency measure• Measure of association.• Causal inference.
![Page 12: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Chance
• “Luck of the draw”• Concept of inference• Hypothesis testing (p – value)• Confidence interval
![Page 13: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Bias
• Systematic errors in collecting or interpreting data such that there is deviation of results or inferences from the truth.
• Bias results from systematic flaws in study design, data collection, or the analysis or interpretation of results.
![Page 14: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Type of Bias
• Selection Bias.Non-comparable criteria used to enroll participants.
• Information Bias.Non-comparable information is obtained from the study groups due to interviewer bias or due to recall bias.
![Page 15: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Confounding• a mixing of effects between the exposure and
the disease - by other factors associated with both the exposure and the disease- the effects of the two processes are not separated
• Confounding results when the effect of an exposure on the disease (or outcome) is distorted because of the association of exposure with other factor(s) that influence the outcome under study.

Frequency Measurement
• General measurement of frequency- Ratio- Proportion- Rate
• Frequency measurement in epidemiology- Prevalence
- Incidence
![Page 18: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Prevalence
• the number of existing cases in the population; the proportion of the population at a given time that have the factor of interest.
![Page 19: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Type of Prevalence
• Point Prevalence; specific point of time
• Period prevalence; specific period of time
![Page 20: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Incidence
• the probability (risk) of an individual developing the disease (outcome) during a specific period of time.
![Page 21: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Type of Incidence
• Cumulative incidencea measure of the occurrence of new cases in a population
• Incidence densitythe rapidity with which new cases develop; one person year of experience (PYOE)
![Page 22: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Measure of Association
• frequency measurements are compared and summarized
• to determine the magnitude of the observed association between risk factor and outcome
• useful in judging the likelihood that the exposure is a significant clinically factor in the development of the outcome of interest.
![Page 23: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Type of Measures of Association• Ratio

Relative Risk
• Ratio of occurrence of disease in exposed to non-exposed populations.
• Risk Ratio: comparison of prevalence or cumulative incidence.
• Rate Ratio: comparison of incidence density.
![Page 25: Clinical Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042523/577cc7821a28aba711a129e2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Odd Ratio
• Ratio of odds of being exposed if having disease, to those of being exposed if disease free.

Attributable Risk
• Difference in risk between exposed and non-exposed population.
• Attributable risk fractionattributable risk as proportion of total risk in
exposed group.• Population attributable risk fraction.
the proportion of the population risk that is attributable to the exposure.

Causal Inference
• Natural history of disease; agent, host, environment, vector.
• Koch’s postulate of infectious disease.
• Bradford Hills postulates for multi-causal diseases
