AbstractAnalysis of case-control and cohort studies. The most relevant measures
of effect (odds and rate ratios) are introduced, and methods for
adjusting for confounders (Mantel-Haenszel, regression) are thoroughly

score adjustments are also covered. We will outline statistical methods
for case-crossover and case series studies etc.
