What proportion of men have the disease at any time during the period of study (this is the prevalence among men)? What proportion of men without disease at baseline develop the disease during the period of study (this is the incidence among men)?

Questions 1-3 relate to the following information: Consider a cohort of 15,000 people followed during a one-year time period (January 1, 2002 – January 1, 2003). In this cohort, there are 9,000 women and 6,000 men. The table shows the number of women and men with existing disease at the beginning of the time period (existing cases), the number of incident cases that are diagnosed (new cases) and the number that remain free of disease during this time period (no disease).

Explain why the disease is more common in males than females

Collect and present ONE piece of data about incidence, mortality AND/ORprevalence of the disease in Australia that compares females and males.

Think back to the example study earlier in this lecture. The researchers followed 3 participants in a 5 year study. You have already calculated the total person-time and found out that it is 10 years. During the study, there was one case of the disease. Calculate the rate. 101.13.33
