Epidemiology (Cancer)

The study of the patterns, causes, and control of disease in groups of people.

Epidemiology (Carpet)

The science that deals with the study of disease in a general population (e.g., Kawasaki Syndrome). Determination of the incidence (rate of occurrence) and distribution of a particular disease (by age, sex, or occupation) may provide information about the causes of the disease.

Epidemiology (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)

The branch of medical science that deals with the incidence, distribution, and control of disease in a population.

Epidemiology (Climate)

The study of diseases as they affect populations, including the distribution of disease or other health-related states and events in human populations, the factors (e.g., age, sex, occupation, and economic status) that influence this distribution, and the application of this study to control health problems.

Epidemiology (Clinical Trials)

The branch of medical science that deals with the study of incidence and distribution and control of a disease among a specific group.

Epidemiology (Diabetes)

The study of a disease that deals with how many people have it, where they are, how many new cases develop, and how to control the disease.

Epidemiology (Disease)

The study of the incidence, distribution and determinants of an infection, disease or other health-related event in a population. Epidemiology can be thought of in terms of who, where, when, what, and why. That is, who has the infection/disease, where are they located geographically and in relation to each other, when is the infection/disease occurring, what is the cause, and why did it occur.

Epidemiology (Environment)

Study of the distribution of disease, or other health-related states and events in human populations, as related to age, sex, occupation, ethnicity, and economic status in order to identify and alleviate health problems and promote better health.

Epidemiology (Environmental Health)

The study of the occurrence and causes of health effects in human populations. An epidemiological study often compares two groups of people who are alike except for one factor such as exposure to a chemical or the presence of a health effect. The investigators try to determine if the factor is associated with the health effect.

Epidemiology (Food)

E study of distribution and determinants of diseases or other health outcomes in human populations. seeks to expose potential associations between aspects of health (such as cancer, heart disease, etc.) and diet, lifestyle, habits or other factors within populations. idemiological studies may suggest relationships between two factors, but do not provide the basis for conclusions about cause and effect. ssible associations inferred from epidemiological research can turn out to be coincidental.

Epidemiology (Food and Health)

The study of distribution and determinants of diseases or other health outcomes in human populations. It seeks to expose potential associations between aspects of health (such as cancer, heart disease, etc.) and diet, lifestyle, habits or other factors within populations. Epidemiological studies may suggest relationships between two factors, but do not provide the basis for conclusions about cause and effect. Possible associations inferred from epidemiological research can turn out to be coincidental.

Epidemiology (Gambling Addiction)

The study of the occurrence of a disease in a population.

Epidemiology (HIV and AIDs)

The branch of medical science that studies the incidence, distribution and control of disease in a population.

Epidemiology (Health)

The study of the spread, control, and prevention of disease in a group of persons.

Epidemiology (Hepatitis B)

A field of medical science that studies the incidence, distribution, and control of disease in a population. This information is often used to determine causes and methods of controlling diseases.

Epidemiology (Huntingtons Disease)

The study of the spread of diseases within and between populations.

Epidemiology (Mesothelioma)

The science of dealing with incidence, distribution and control of disease in a population. Also, those factors controlling the presence or absence of a disease. The pathology regarding the specific cause of a disease.

Epidemiology (Microbiology)

The study of the incidence and prevalence of disease in populations.

Epidemiology (Pituitary)

The study of the distribution of disease and its impact upon a population, using such measures as incidence, prevalence, or mortality.

Epidemiology (Prostate Cancer)

The branch of medicine that deals with the study of the causes, distribution, and control of disease in populations

Epidemiology (Pulmonary Fibrosis)

The incidence, distribution, and control of a disease in a population.

Epidemiology (Toxic Substances)

The study of the distribution and determinants of disease or health status in a population; the study of the occurrence and causes of health effects in humans.
