Focusing on improving the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of
human disease, this book takes on the issues of research design,
measurement, and evaluation which are critical to clinical
epidemiology. This second edition of Clinical Epidemiology:
Practice and Methods opens with how best to frame a clinical
research question, the ethics associated with doing a research
project in humans, and the definition of various biases that occur
in clinical research. From there, it continues by examining issues
of design, measurement, and analysis associated with various
research designs, including determination of risk in longitudinal
studies, assessment of therapy in randomized controlled clinical
trials, and evaluation of diagnostic tests, and then delves into
the more specialized area of clinical genetic research, before
concluding with basic methods used in evidence-based decision
making including critical appraisal, aggregation of multiple
studies using meta-analysis, health technology assessment, clinical
practice guidelines, development of health policy, translational
research, how to utilize administrative databases, and knowledge
translation. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular
Biology series, chapters include the kind of detail and practical
advice to ensure real world success. Comprehensive and
authoritative, Clinical Epidemiology: Practice and Methods, Second
Edition is intended to educate researchers on how to undertake
clinical research and should be helpful not only to medical
practitioners but also to basic scientists who want to extend their
work to humans, to allied health professionals interested in
scientific evaluation, and to trainees in clinical epidemiology.
