2022 Epidemiology Study Design Project<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Abstract:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The aim of this study is to find the relationship between smoking and stroke to determine if populations are more\/less likely to have a stroke due to smoking and then determine the best ways to aid each population. This will be done by finding the mortality of smokers in the U.S. and finding the relationship with smoking and stroke. A cohort study will be used to observe the causes of strokes and find the relationship between smoking and having a stroke. Previous medical history of subjects and two groups will be established to compare the data. Prevalence and relative risk will measure the burden of the disease and show the relationship between smoking and stroke to determine the strength of the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\nEpi-Project-Portfolio 2022 Program Plan and Evaluation Project Paper<\/p>\n\n\n\n Abstract:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2019, over 1.75 million people were diagnosed with cancer in the United States with the incidence rate being 439 new cases per 100,000 people (CDC, 2022). About 600,000 of these people died but over the past 20 years, cancer rates have been declining and have declined by 27%. Reasons behind this trend have been shown to come from population changes in cancer risk factors, advances in treatment and diagnostics, and cancer screening test usage (CDC, 2022). Not only does cancer affect the physical being of the individual, but also mental health. Anxiety, depression, and fear are all common emotions and feelings affected by a cancer diagnosis (Cancer and Mental Health, n.d.). By offering screenings and intervention methods, we look to continue declining these rates of cancer and improving physical and mental health during times of treatment.<\/p>\n\n\nannotated-MPH2066120-20Project20Paper-1.docx <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a presentation on my service learning project I completed at Minority AIDS Support Service.
