What is the difference between incidence and prevalence?
Incidence is number of new cases diagnosed prevalence is the the burden of disease that is new cases plus old cases
What is the difference between epidemic and endemic in term of community?
An epidemic is a sudden outbreak of a disease (or metaphorically, something that is being compared to a disease, such as an epidemic of crime). A disease can also be described as endemic, which means that there is some incidence of that disease which is always present and doesn't go away.
When will the incidence and prevalence of a disease be equal?
The incidence will equal the prevalence when the duration of the disease is equal to the time period over which the incidence is measured.
What does incidence of a disease mean?
Incidence of a disease refers to the number of new cases repoted recently
What are studies that reveal correlation between dietary habits and disease incidence referred to as?

What is the difference between plague and disease?

How are incidence and prevalence used to determine if a disease should be of concern at a certain time?
Incidence refers to the number of new cases of a disease in a specific population over a defined period, while prevalence indicates the total number of existing cases at a particular time. Public health officials use these metrics to assess the severity and spread of a disease; a rising incidence may signal an outbreak or increased transmission risk, while high prevalence can indicate a chronic health issue. Together, they help prioritize resources and interventions, guiding responses based on the urgency and impact of the disease within the community.
What type of research studies populations and is often used to search for correlations between dietary habits and disease incidence?
Epidemiological research studies populations and is frequently used to investigate correlations between dietary habits and disease incidence. This type of research often involves analyzing data from large groups of people to identify patterns and associations between various factors such as diet and disease risk.
What is the difference between functional health and the absence of disease?
Disease is any change from a state of health; impaired body function.
What type of research studies population and is often used to search for correlation between dietary habits and disease incidence?
Epidemiological Study.
