What is the association between 1) smoking and lung cancer and 2) sleep and weight gain/loss.
Homework Answers
Ans:- 1) Association between smoking and lung cancer:- we all knows that smoking causes lung cancer by damaging the cells that line the lungs.
In smoking people uses cigarette, pipe, cigar etc. They have tabacco inside these and it is carcinogenic that causes changes in the lung tissues and triggers uncontrolled growth of the cells that causes cancer.
In united States cigarette smoking is about 80%- 90% cause of lung cancers.
2) Association between sleep and weight gain/loss:-
Studies shows that when people awake more then hunger hormone ghrelin secrets in excess and it leads over eating due to which person eats more and gains weight.
Due to sleep there is no weight loss occurs as such.

In a study of the effects of smoking on lung cancer, 100 men with lung cancer were compared to 100 men without lung cancer. Among those with lung cancer, 80 had a previous history of smoking. Among the comparison group, 45 had a previous history of smoking. What type of study design was used for this investigation of the association between smoking and lung cancer? Prospective cohort study Retrospective cohort study Case-control study Clinical trial None of the answers listed

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 over a 4-year period (April 1948-February 1952). Initially, 20 hospitals, and later more, were asked to...

Dr. Johnson conducted a study to assess the effect of cigarette smoking on lung cancer. The study findings showed an association between cigarette smoking and lung cancer, with a reported odds ratio (OR)=1.0. What does this number (1.0) convey about the association between the two variables? (underlie the correct answer). A. non-smokers were more likely to have lung cancer than smokers B. non-smokers were less likely to have lung cancer than smokers C. smokers and non-smokers had an equal chance...

1. Suppose that the causal relationship between smoking and lung cancer is as follows. Whether or not you get lung cancer depends on whether you have a particular genetic makeup: if you do, then smoking will cause you to get lung cancer and if you don't then smoking will not give you lung cancer. Furthermore, smoking is a necessary condition for lung cancer. Under these hypotheses, the decision whether or not to smoke looks as follows: state -genetic predisposition s:...

We know that a researcher calculated a correlation coefficient for the association between smoking and lung cancer rate is 0.737 using the data in Table 1. In addition, the researcher have estimated x ̅ = 603.64, y ̅ = 20.55, s_x= 378.451, s_y= 11.725, and r = 0.737. a. Calculate the slope coefficient b for y ̂ = a + bx.
