Term

What is RR (Risk Ratio)?

 

What is the formula for it?

Definition

think: when you are exposed to __, what is the likelihood you will die out of all people with that exposure

 

I1 = a/(a+b)

 

I0 = c/(c+d)

 

 

Term

if one asked:


Is exposure associated with greater risk of disease?

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition
RR, becuase it asks about risk (RR) and exposure (incidence measurement)
Term

 

if one asked:


Is exposure associated with greater odds of disease?

 

what formula would that refer to?

 

Definition
OR
Term

if one asked:


What is the excess risk (incidence) of disease associated with exposure?

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition
RD, think excess --> difference
Term

if one asked:


What proportion of disease occurence among exposed indivdiuals is due to the exposure?

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition

AR(E):

 

(I1-I0)/I1

 

RD/I1, relize that proportion means two different values

Term

if one asked:


What proportion of disease ocurrence in the total population is due to exposure?

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition
PAR
Term
What is considered risk?
Definition
incidence
Term
What is OR (odd ratio)?
Definition

(a/b)


(c/d)

Term
What is RD (risk difference)?
Definition
I1-I0
Term
What is AR(E), attributable risk among the exposed
Definition

(I1-I0)/I1 or RD/I1

 

think risk --> incidence

think attributable --> look at non-exposed (I0)

Term
What is PAR, population attributable risk
Definition

(I-I0)/I

 

where I is (a+c)/(a+b+c+d)

Term

What is the formula for risk.

 

In = x/(x+y)

Definition
In = x/(x+y)
Term

if one asked:


Is the exposure associated with death, relative to non-exposure

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition
RR
Term

if one asked:


What proportion of th death was due to exposure?

 

what formula would that refer to?

Definition
AR(E)
