Please Explain in a one short paragraph:
If I am comparing lung cancer death rates between New York State and the rest of the United States, should I use crude or age-adjusted rates? Explain your thinking.
Homework Answers
In this case, age-adjusted rates will be a better option. The crude death rate can be biased by many things, one example is age. Because the incidence of cancer death dramatically increases in older adults and less in the younger population, if a country has a higher percentage of older population then the crude rate can be high. Age-adjusted rates adjust the age of the population and make sure that the death rate will not be influenced by age.

Lung Cancer & Smoking Case Study A causal relationship between cigarette smoking and lung cancer was first suspected in the 1920s on the basis of clinical observations. To test this apparent association, numerous epidemiologic studies were undertaken between 1930 and 1960. Two studies were conducted by Richard Doll and Austin Bradford Hill in Great Britain. The first was a case-control study begun in 1947 comparing the smoking habits of lung cancer patients with the smoking habits of other patients. The...

Problem: Proportion of "Cured” Cancer Patients: How Does Canada Compare with Europe? Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death for both Canadian men and women, responsible for the most potential years of life lost to cancer. Lung cancer alone accounts for 28% of all cancer deaths in Canada (32%. in Quebec). Most forms of lung cancer start insidiously and produce no apparent symptoms until they are too far advanced. Consequently, the chances of being cured of lung cancer...
