Описание: Evidence-Based Diagnosis explains diagnostic, screening, and prognostic tests in clinical medicine. The authors' approach is based on many years of experience teaching physicians in a clinical research training program. Although needing only a minimum of mathematics, the quantitative discussions in this book are deeper and more rigorous than in most introductory texts. The book includes numerous worked examples and 60 problems (with answers) based on real clinical situations and journal articles. This book is a great choice for anyone looking to select, develop, or apply medical tests. Topics covered include: the diagnostic process; test reliability and accuracy; testing and treatment thresholds; critical appraisal of studies of diagnostic, screening and prognostic tests; test independence and methods of combining tests; quantifying treatment benefits using randomized trials and observational studies; Bayesian interpretation of P values and confidence intervals; challenges for evidence-based diagnosis; likelihood ratios and ROC curves.
Описание: Presents an overview of the complex biological systems used within a global public health setting and features a focus on malaria analysis Bridging the gap between agent–based modeling and simulation (ABMS) and geographic information systems (GIS), Spatial Agent–Based Simulation Modeling in Public Health: Design, Implementation, and Applications for Malaria Epidemiology provides a useful introduction to the development of agent–based models (ABMs) by following a conceptual and biological core model of Anopheles gambiae for malaria epidemiology. Using spatial ABMs, the book includes mosquito (vector) control interventions and GIS as two example applications of ABMs, as well as a brief description of epidemiology modeling. In addition, the authors discuss how to most effectively integrate spatial ABMs with a GIS. The book concludes with a combination of knowledge from entomological, epidemiological, simulation–based, and geo–spatial domains in order to identify and analyze relationships between various transmission variables of the disease. Spatial Agent–Based Simulation Modeling in Public Health: Design, Implementation, and Applications for Malaria Epidemiology also features: Location–specific mosquito abundance maps that play an important role in malaria control activities by guiding future resource allocation for malaria control and identifying hotspots for further investigation Discussions on the best modeling practices in an effort to achieve improved efficacy, cost–effectiveness, ecological soundness, and sustainability of vector control for malaria An overview of the various ABMs, GIS, and spatial statistical methods used in entomological and epidemiological studies, as well as the model malaria study A companion website with computer source code and flowcharts of the spatial ABM and a landscape generator tool that can simulate landscapes with varying spatial heterogeneity of different types of resources including aquatic habitats and houses Spatial Agent–Based Simulation Modeling in Public Health: Design, Implementation, and Applications for Malaria Epidemiology is an excellent reference for professionals such as modeling and simulation experts, GIS experts, spatial analysts, mathematicians, statisticians, epidemiologists, health policy makers, as well as researchers and scientists who use, manage, or analyze infectious disease data and/or infectious disease–related projects. The book is also ideal for graduate–level courses in modeling and simulation, bioinformatics, biostatistics, public health and policy, and epidemiology. S. M.

Описание: Written by the foremost author in the field, this book explores the principles of informal logic as applied to clinical problems and the uses of evidence in logical reasoning. It covers general concepts, theories, paradigms, and definitions; EBM reasoning at each step of a clinician's work; and decision making based on the integration of all of the above. The book describes the assessment of diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis in practical clinical medicine; clinical and community health; and methods in various quantitative and qualitative analyses, especially meta-analysis. The innovative blend of informal logic and structured evidence-based reasoning make this book stand out in a crowd.
Описание: Essential reading for those involved in reading medical literature on a regular basis, interpreting medical statistics, and those who want to understand the evidence-based medicine process.

Описание: Medicine until recently remained a history written by and for practitioners. These essays diverge from this tradition in an attempt to view medical history within the context of intellectual and social change of the last two centuries.
