Please provide the correct term described in each question below.

  1. The probability that a test correctly classifies as negative those individuals who do not have preclinical disease.

  1. Individuals who test negative for a disease even though they actually have the disease.

  1. A measure of the new cases of disease in a prospective cohort study.

  1. The type of study design that examines the associations between diseases and other variables of interest in a defined population at one particular time.

  1. This is present when the association between exposure and disease is different within categories or levels of a third variable.

  1. The prevalence of disease at a certain point in time.

  1. Hill criterion where consistent results are found in different populations, in different time periods, with different study designs.

  1. Lack of random error in estimating a population parameter.

  1. The appropriate measure for determining whether a screening test correctly classifies people with disease as having disease.

The study design where increasing sample size decreases the possibility of confounding

(Normal approximation to Binomial) Suppose that each student has probability p of correctly answering a question chosen at random from a large inventory of questions. The correctness of answer to a question is independent of the correctness of answers to other questions. An exam consisting of n questions can be considered as a simple random sample of size n from the population of all questions. Therefore, the number of correct answers X in an exam of n questions is a...

Please select all of the correct answers in this question to test your understanding of Type 4 hypersensitivity. Type 4 hypersensitivity is also referred to as delayed hypersensitivity. The severity of the reaction depends upon whether IgG, IgM, or IgE are involved. Type 4 hypersensitivity is mediated by T-cells and the effector cells that they recruit. Type 4 hypersensitivity is most appropriately treated with antihistamines. Type 4 hypersensitivity may result from mismatched blood transfusions.
