Learning objectives

The course will provide an overview on the main designs applied in observational (cross-sectional, cohort, case-control, ecologic) and experimental (parallel groups, cross-over, factorial) research. Strengths and limitations of these designs will be discussed.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Students should have basic knowledge of Mathematics and Statistics.

Program

The course will present examples of meta-analyses performed in the medical field, with special reference to: publication/small series bias; prevalence estimates; evaluation of diagnostic tools.

When and where

Lessons will take place in the computer room. Participants will replicate the results of published meta-analyses by using a statistical software during the class (Stata or R-Commander).

Learning assessment procedures

Students will orally answer some questions on the program carried out.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Assessment

The exam will evaluate not only the acquisition of statistical knowledge, but also the ability to adopt it critically to solve health problems.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The final mark will be expressed on a scale ranging from 0 to 30. A minimum mark of 18 will be required in order to pass the exam
