Study Notes
General Biostatistics
- Biostatistics is a science dealing with the development and application of methods appropriate for data collection, presentation, analysis, and interpretation, mainly in medical and biological research.
- Biostatisticians guide experiment/survey design, analyze data using appropriate techniques, and interpret results for decision-making.
- Data is the raw material of biostatistics, including measurements and responses (e.g., HIV status, CD4 count).
Study Types
- Observational studies simply observe what happens without researcher intervention.
- Cross-sectional: all subjects observed at one time point.
- Longitudinal: subjects observed at multiple time points.
- Experimental studies involve researcher intervention, such as applying different treatments to different groups and comparing outcomes.
- Randomized controlled trials are a type of experimental study where subjects are randomly assigned to groups.
Sampling
- Sampling is a method for selecting a subset of a population to collect data.
- Probability sampling ensures all individuals have an equal chance of selection, while convenience sampling involves the researcher selecting individuals based on convenience.
- Sampling error is a difference between a sample's statistic and the true population parameter.
- This error can be reduced by increasing the sample size, randomization, and stratification (for heterogeneous populations).
Variables
- Numerical variables are continuous (infinitely divisible) or discrete (indivisible categories).
- Categorical variables are ordinal (ordered categories) or nominal (unordered categories).
Statistical Measures
- Descriptive statistics summarize data, including measures of location (mean, median, mode), dispersion (standard deviation, interquartile range), and skewness.
- Inferential statistics allow for making conclusions about a larger population based on a sample.
- Point estimates are single numbers, while confidence intervals include a range of possible values along with a confidence level expressing the probability that the true value falls within the range.
Other Topics
- Many different statistical methods exist to analyze data appropriately.
- Different types of graphs exist to present data, such as bar graphs, pie charts, line graphs, and histograms.
- A variety of statistical tests exist, and choosing the correct test is critical for obtaining accurate results and drawing sound conclusions.
