Water Supply, Sanitation, and Gastrointestinal Illness
ISBN: 9783836488518 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A common way investigators estimate causal effects is though the use of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, in certain epidemiological contexts (e.g. examining the relationship between water, sanitation, and gastrointestinal illness), ethical concerns, the inability to adequately blind participants and investigators, and challenges in employing randomization procedures may make it difficult to conduct internally valid RCTs and may lead to biased results.
Recently developed methods in biostatistics allow investigators, under certain conditions, to estimate the causal effects... A common way investigators estimate causal effects is though the use of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, in certain epidemiological conte...
