 Assess distribution of disease
 Who is getting disease?
 Where is disease occurring?
 When is disease occurring?
 Formulation of hypotheses concerning causal
and preventive factors

Why we need research design
Classification of epidemiological
research and study designs
Characteristics of each study design
Choosing appropriate study design for
research title under consideration
What will you learn in this
session?
Big Picture
 To prevent and control disease
 In a coordinated plan, look to
 identify hypotheses on what is
related to disease and may be
causing it
 formally test these hypotheses
• Study designs direct how the
investigation is conducted
Study design: Definition
A study design is a specific plan
or protocol for conducting the
study, which allows the
investigator to translate the
conceptual hypothesis into an
operational one.

carry out research on a problem
under study. The design will define:

Arranging the data by person,place
and time
 Frequency among male & female
 Frequency among white & black
 Frequency among rural & urban
 Frequency in Asia & Europe
 Frequency in winter & summer
 Month-wise frequencies
 Year-wise frequencies
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 31
Drawing the conclusion
 Frequency is more in male than
female
 Frequency is more in urban or rural
 Frequency is more in winter than
summer
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 32
Hypothesis Formulation
 Method of difference
Difference of frequencies in two sets of
circumstances
 Method of agreement
A single factor is common in number
circumstances in which disease occurs
with high frequencies
 Method of Concomitant variations
Frequency of factor varies with frequency of
disease
Case Reports
 Detailed presentation of a single
case or handful of cases
 Generally report a new or unique
finding
 e.g. previous undescribed disease
 e.g. unexpected link between
diseases
 e.g. unexpected new therapeutic
effect
Case Series
 Experience of a group of patients
with a similar diagnosis
 Assesses prevalent disease
 Cases may be identified from a
single or multiple sources
 Generally report on new/unique
condition
 May be only realistic design for rare
disorders
Case Series
 Advantages
 Useful for hypothesis generation
 Informative for very rare disease with
few established risk factors
 Characterizes averages for disorder
 Disadvantages
 Cannot study cause and effect
relationships
 Cannot assess disease frequency

cases with denominator
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 37
 The population is examined in single point of time
or it is snap-short of the situation
 Both the exposure and the disease are assessed
at the same time
 Population as whole or representative sample of
the population is studied
 The studies are unable to explain the time
association of the disease
 These studies are less time consuming as
compared to longitudinal studies
 Important cross-sectional surveys in Pakistan
were, PIHS, MICS, PDS etc.

trial)
 Neither the subject nor doctor is aware
about the groups (Double blind trials)

the difference between relative
risk and odds ratios
 Relative Risk and Odds Ratios are often
confused despite being unique
concepts. Why?
 Well, both measure association
between a binary outcome variable and
a continuous or binary predictor
variable.
 The relative risk is confused by some with the
odds ratio and absolute risk. Relative risk is
the ratio of the probability of an event
occurring with an exposure versus the
probability of the event occurring without the
exposure. Thus to calculate the relative risk,
we must know the exposure status of all
individuals (either exposed or not
exposed). This implies that relative risk is only
appropriate for cases where the exposure
status and incidence of disease can be
accurately determined, such as prospective
cohort studies.
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 90
 Relative Risk and Odds Ratios are often
confused despite being unique
concepts. Why?
 Well, both measure association
between a binary outcome variable and
a continuous or binary predictor
variable.

5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 97
When Is the Odds Ratio a Good
Estimate of the Relative Risk?
 In a case-control study, only the odds ratio
can be
calculated as a measure of association,
whereas in a
cohort study, either the relative risk or the
odds
ratio is a valid measure of association.
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 98
 When is the odds ratio (relative odds)
obtained
in a case-control study a good
approximation of the
relative risk in the population? When the
following
three conditions are met:
5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 99
 1. When the cases studied are representative, with
regard to history of exposure, of all people with
the disease in the population from which the
cases were drawn.
2. When the controls studied are representative,
with regard to history of exposure, of all people
without the disease in the population from
which the cases were drawn.
3. When the disease being studied does not occur
frequently.

  • 89. 5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 89 the difference between relative risk and odds ratios  Relative Risk and Odds Ratios are often confused despite being unique concepts. Why?  Well, both measure association between a binary outcome variable and a continuous or binary predictor variable.
  • 90.  The relative risk is confused by some with the odds ratio and absolute risk. Relative risk is the ratio of the probability of an event occurring with an exposure versus the probability of the event occurring without the exposure. Thus to calculate the relative risk, we must know the exposure status of all individuals (either exposed or not exposed). This implies that relative risk is only appropriate for cases where the exposure status and incidence of disease can be accurately determined, such as prospective cohort studies. 5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 90

  • 98. When Is the Odds Ratio a Good Estimate of the Relative Risk?  In a case-control study, only the odds ratio can be calculated as a measure of association, whereas in a cohort study, either the relative risk or the odds ratio is a valid measure of association. 5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 98
  • 99.  When is the odds ratio (relative odds) obtained in a case-control study a good approximation of the relative risk in the population? When the following three conditions are met: 5/31/2023 DR M TAUSEEF JAVED 99
