6.Sum of Person Years of Exposure in each exposure group
Former/Current Smoker : 17
Never Smoker : 35
7. No of persons of exposed and non exposed participants who developed throat Cancer
Former/Current Smoker : 5
Never Smoker : 2
8.Incidence Density for the exposed (IDE) and non-exposed (IDNE) groups
Former/Current Smoker : 0.2941
Never Smoker : 0.0571
9.Incidence Density Ratio (IDR)
IDR > 1, thus it is hazardous.
10. Smokers have 5.15 times the risk of throat cancer compared to the non-smokers

A group of pregnant women were followed prospectively to investigate the role of cigarette smoking and risk of low birth weight. At the first prenatal visit, 2200 women were classified as current smokers or non-smokers (defined as former smokers or never smokers). The outcome, low birthweight, was defined as a birthweight < 2500 grams. After completion of the study, the investigators reported the results in the form of calculated rates and measures of effect. What study design was used to...
5. Smoking and duodenal ulcers. The Health Professionals Follow-up Study is a prospective study of heart disease and cancer among more than 50,000 health professionals in the United States who were 40–75 years of age in 1986. Every two years questionnaires are sent to these individuals, and newly diagnosed cases of various diseases reported. The following data are constructed from the surveys returned in the 1993 mailing. The investigators in this study were interested in the relationship between smoking status...

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...
The study also provided mortality rates for cardiovascular disease among smokers and non-smokers. The following table presents lung cancer mortality data and comparable cardiovascular disease mortality data. Table 2.
