Contents

The first part of the course deals with cohort design: concept, utilities, and general options of this design. The different origins of the groups being compared are evaluated, the general characteristics that the follow-up should have, and the main problem derived, the losses throughout it. The second part of the course presents case-control designs: concept of the base population distinguishing between primary and secondary base population, and development of the design, with special emphasis on the criteria and sources for the selection of cases and controls, for the determination of exposure, sample size calculation, and matching methods.

Itinerary
