Koch's Postulates


In 1890 the German physician and bacteriologist Robert Koch set out his celebrated criteria for judging

whether a given bacteria is the cause of a given disease. Koch's criteria brought some much-needed

scientific clarity to what was then a very confused field.



Koch's postulates are as follows:



The bacteria must be present in every case of the disease.

The bacteria must be isolated from the host with the disease and grown in pure culture.

The specific disease must be reproduced when a pure culture of the bacteria is inoculated into a healthy

susceptible host.

The bacteria must be recoverable from the experimentally infected host.

, Disease causation


the risk factors for disease development and their relative strength with respect to an individual and

population


Population attributable risk


(Syn: population risk difference) The incidence of a disease in a population that is associated with

(attributable to) exposure to the risk factor. It is often expressed as a percentage (i.e., population

attributable risk percent, population etiologic fraction).


efficacy


a measure in a situation

in which all conditions are controlled to maximize

the effect of the agent


Effect modification


is present when the effect of the main exposure on the outcome is modified by the presence of another

variable


Effectiveness


If we administer the agent in a "real-life" situation,

is it effective?


Efficiency
