In Summary
100

 The number of patients you need to treat to prevent one additional bad outcome (death, stroke, etc.).

What is the Number Needed to Treat- NNT?

100

This Doctor is 100% Polish descent

Who is Dr. Labak?

100

The following equation depicts the degree an intervention or exposure increases/decreases the risk of an outcome to a group

# events in placebo group/# subjects in placebo group

_______________________________________ =

# events in study group/# subjects in study group


(a/a+b) / (c/c+d) = ?

What is the equation for relative risk?

100

This faculty member has been featured both on stage and screen in the Crucible, the Sound of Music, Return to Me, and Big Trouble.

Calculate the Number Needed to treat?

a=19

b=195

c=28

d=173



What is 16?

NNT allows a simple explanation of the likelihood of benefit, which may be used in helping patients reach a decision about whether to start a medication.


200

This gives an estimated range of values which is likely to include an unknown population parameter, the estimated range being calculated from a given set of sample data.

What is the Confidence Interval?

200

This Doctor's family member was a Confederate Officer in the Revolutionary war.

Who is Dr. Eckerstrom?

200

TP TP+FN X 100=?

Test the proportion of persons with the condition who test positive.

What is the equation for Sensitivity?


SNOUT

– SeNsitive test with a Negative result rules

OUT the disease

200

This faculty's High School basketball team were called the Freemont Pretzels.

Who is Dr. Schroeder?

200

Calculate the Sensitivity of Fasting Plasma Blood Glucose test in diagnosing Diabetes Mellitus

                       (+) DM                  (-) DM

Test Positive       182                       24

Test Negative      18                        166

Total                  200                      200


What is 91%?


Sensitivity of the test = TP/TP+FN = 182/182+18 = 91% 

300

Commonly <0.05, this is the likelihood that a hypothesis is valid

What is the Probability?

300

This Faculty member's ancestors hired Abraham Lincoln as their lawyer to settle a copyright dispute over "the Reaper"- (equipment used to harvest wheat).

Who is Dr. Schroeder?

300

TN FP+TN X 100=?


Test the proportion of persons without the condition who test negative

What is the equation for Specificity?

SPIN

– A Specific test with a Positive result rules IN

the disease

300

This doctor was born 9 months apart from their brother.

Who is Dr. Rizzo?

300

Calculate the Specificity of Fasting Plasma Blood Glucose test in diagnosing Diabetes Mellitus

                       (+) DM                  (-) DM

Test Positive       182                       24

Test Negative      18                        166

Total                  200                      200


What is 83%?

Specificity of the test = TN/FP+TN = 166/24+166 = 83%

400

The risk an individual has of developing the disease over a time period.

What is Absolute risk?

For example, say you have a 1 in 10 risk of developing a certain disease in your life. This can also be said to be a 10% risk, or a 0.1 risk - depending on whether you use percentages or decimals.

400

This Doctor's family originates from near Transylvania, home of Vlad the Impaler (otherwise known as Dracula)

Who is Dr. Lupei?

400

        TP

_______________ =

      TP+FP

PPV- Positive Predicted Value


The proportion of positive results that are

true positives

– The likelihood that a person with a positive

test actually has the disease

500

The risk of a disease in two different groups of people, i.e Smokers vs non-smokers

What is Relative Risk?

Say the absolute risk of developing a disease is 4 in 100 in non-smokers. Say the relative risk of the disease is increased by 50% in smokers. The 50% relates to the 4 - so the absolute increase in the risk is 50% of 4, which is 2. So, the absolute risk of smokers developing this disease is 6 in 100.

This Doctor's ancestors were called "headhunters" as they would take the heads of their rivals as souvenirs after war.

Who is Dr. Konyak?

500

        TN

_______________ =

      TN+FN

NPV-Negative Predicted Value

The proportion of negative results that are

true negatives

– The likelihood that a person with a negative

test truly does not have the disease
