Disadvantage of cohort study?

• Cohort studies describe incidence or natural history. • They analyse predictors (risk factors) thereby enabling calculation of relative risk. • Cohort studies measure events in temporal sequence thereby distinguishing causes from effects. • Retrospective cohorts where available are cheaper and quicker. • Confounding variables are the major problem in analysing cohort studies. • Subject selection and loss to follow up is a major potential cause of bias.


Why is a case-control study often referred to as a retrospective study?

A case-control study is referred to as a retrospective study because it looks back in time to study the exposure history of cases (individuals with the outcome/disease) and controls (individuals without the outcome/disease). Researchers compare the past exposure between the two groups to identify potential risk factors associated with the outcome.
