Problem 1
Exercises 1.
No Earplugs Earplugs
Hearing-loss 40 60 100
Normal hearing 16 384 400
56 444 500
a. Risk of hearing-loss attributable to not wearing earplugs;

ARe= CI0-CI1= (a/(a+b))-(c/(c+d))
 (40/100)-(16/400)= 0.36

There is a 36% higher risk for the no earplug wearing group to get hearingloss compared
to the wearing group in four years.

36% higher risk in for 4 years in the exposed group compared to the non exposed.

b. Was the proportion of hearing-loss in the non-wearers was attributable to not
wearing earplugs?
APe= CI1-CI0/CI1=( a/(a+b))-(c/(c+d))/(a/(a+b)
APe= (40/100)-(16/400)/ (40/100)= 0.9

90% of the risk to get hearingloss is associated with not wearing earplugs.
For the proportion you don’t need to know the years.

c. What proportion of the hearing-loss in all the workers was attributable to not
wearing earplugs

APt= (CIt-CIo)/CIt=(e/e+f)-(c/c+d)/(e/e+f)
Apt=(56/444)-(16/384)/(56/444)= 0.64

56/500 -16/400/ 56/500=

64% of the risk to get hearingloss for the total population is associated with not
wearing earplugs.

d. RR= (CI1/CI0)
RR= (40/100)/(16/400)= 10

The risk to get hearingloss is 10 times higher when not wearing earplugs.


e. OD= (AD/BC)=
OD= (40 x384)/(16x60)= 16
The Odds of getting hearing-loss when NOT wearing earplugs is 16 times higher.

a. What do you think of this reasoning?
Severe trauma is not equal for the other hospitals Vs trauma-center
There is an over estimation because, the increase of trauma level.

b. How would you compare the data of the trauma-center with the other hospitals
Looking at the case fatality rate, the trauma-center is doing better.

,The chance of dying at the other hospitals is higher compared to the trauma hospital. 
no precentages because it is an indication and standard



Step 1= create standard population
Step 2= apply rates to STD pop
Step 3= calculate new death rate

Vb:standard pop

3734+ 687= 4421
37+3=40

40/4421=

New death rate p1= 63
New death rate p2= 63.2

Exercise 3
a. Standardized mortality ratio
SMR= observed cases (O)/ Expected cases (E)) x 100
58/ 42.76= 1.36

 used mortality rate
36% of the cohort higher than expected if the cohort had the same as the reference
mortality rate.

b. Why indirect standardization is appropriate?

No strata- specific rates, or when the study group is to small

- The indirect method of adjustment, which has been particularly popular in the field
of occupational epidemiology, the expected number of events (e.g., deaths) in a
study group (e.g., an occupational cohort) is calculated by applying reference rates
(“standard” rates) to the number of individuals in each stratum of the study group(s)

Exercise 4
a. Incidence rate of mortality due to myocardial infection for smoking (English male
doctors 55-64 years)
IR= N/Person-time
IR= 206/28612=0.007199

b. The 10-year cumulative incidence of MI-death for smoking doctors of 55 years (until
65 years).
CI= 1-e^-(i x t)=
1-e^-(10x0.0072)
1-e^-(0.0722)= 0.0697

A smoking d of 55 has a 6,9% chance to die from MI in the next 10 years.

The changes to die from MI for the age group of 55-64 when smoking is 7 % in 10
years


c. The 40-year cumulative incidence of MI-death for doctors of 35 year, separately for
smokers and non-smokers.

Age I= smokers I= non-smokers
35-44 .407= 0.61 0.106
45-54 2.4 1.124
55-64 7.2 4.9
65-74 14.688 10.83
Total
CI= 1-e^-(i x t)+( i x t)+( i x t)

Smokers= 1-e^-(10 x 0.00061)+(10 x0.0024)+(10 x 0.0072) +(10x 0.014688)=

Smokers = 1-e^-(0.0061+0.024+0.072+0.1468)= 0.2203

Smoking d of 35 years has a 22% chance to die due to Mi over 40 years
