we learned the methods to use in order to quantify the extent of a disease by defining prevalence (the proportion of the population that have a risk factor under study) and incidence (the likelihood of developing a disease). 

– find articles on “outcomes research,” 

– then, compare and contrast outcomes research with traditional clinical research. 

-Research and evaluate the role that outcomes research plays in the research conducted in Saudi Arabia.

Using the Framingham Heart Study dataset

provided, perform the ANOVA multivariable linear regression analysis using BMI as a continuous variable. Before conducting the analysis, be sure that all participants have complete data on all analysis variables.

Describe how each characteristic is related to BMI. Are crude and multivariable effects similar? What might explain or account for any differences?

H0 The BMI is not related to the patient characteristics in the Framingham Heart Study. (Null Hypothesis)

H1 The BMI is related to the patient characteristics in the Framingham Heart Study. (Alternative Hypothesis)

Upload both Excel sheet into R Studio. (Refer to Chapters 7 & 12 in Introductory Statistics with R or pages 111–122 in EXCEL Statistics A Quick Guide). Exclude participants with missing data on analysis variables (age, sex, systolic blood pressure, total serum cholesterol, current smoker, and diabetes = cleaning the data). Conduct the simple linear regression (ANOVA) by using the Excel Regression tool in the Data Analysis Toolpak.

Remember SEX is coded 1=male and 2=female.

Present your findings in a Word document by copying and pasting the ANOVA table into the document. Your paper must be written with a title page, an introduction, a discussion where you interpret the meaning of the ANOVA test, and a conclusion should be included. Your submission should be 2 pages to discuss and display your findings.

Provide support for your statements with in–text citations from a minimum of four scholarly, peer–reviewed articles. One of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook, or lectures, but the others must be external.

Your paper must have

•            Introduction

•            involved all the description requirements

•            In text citation for each paragraph.

•            the date of references must be (recommend that you use more contemporary sources (last 5 years) not from provided materials

•            conclusion

Framingham Heart Study Dataset

 

 

 

Using the Gestation Demographics Saudi University  dataset that is located in the tabs at the bottom of the  Framingham dataset ( you will fined it in the attachments )

provided, perform the following problems using R Studio or Excel.

1.     Create a simple distribution graph (histogram) where we will explore the age of women after giving birth to their first child. Remember that a histogram consists of parallel vertical bars that show the frequency distribution of a quantitative variable in the graph.  The area of each bar is equal to the frequency of items found in each class.

2.     Determine the mean of the age of the women in the Gestation Demographics Saudi University dataset.

3.     We will be testing the hypothesis that assumes the mean age (μ = μ0) for women is 37 years in the Gestation Demographics SEU dataset.

H0 The mean age of women giving birth is 37 years old. (Null Hypothesis) H1 The mean age of women giving birth is not 37 years old. (Alternative Hypothesis)

·       Present your findings in a Word document, by copying and pasting the histogram into the document.

·       After your analysis state whether you accept or reject the null hypothesis and your reasoning why.

·       use a title page, an introduction, a discussion where you interpret the meaning of the histogram, and a conclusion should be included.

·       Your submission should be 3 pages to discuss and display your findings.

·       Provide support for your statements with in-text citations from a minimum of 5 scholarly, peer-reviewed articles.

Follow APA writing standards. 

Important! This is the first of several Critical Thinking assignments that will build the foundation for a research paper later.

In research, you should select research articles that are peer-reviewed and, in most instances, are not more than five years old. you can limit the results by publication date and peer-reviewed journals so that you get the most recent, credible research on the topic. full text, scholarly peer review  journals,and 5 years pulication date (2015 to 2020)

Find 10 peer-reviewed articles to Patient safety culture

At least five articles should be empirical studies. Look for the theory that the study uses to identify the hypothesis that is formulated. See the following article on theory in healthcare:

Maden, M., McMahon, N., Booth, A., Dickson, R., Paisley, S., & Gabbay, M. (2018). Toward a theory-led metaframework for considering socioeconomic health inequalities within systematic reviews. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 104, 84-94.

Write a two-page overview of your topic and the reasons for selecting each of the references. Be aware that you may find research articles that could be subtopics that may add interest to the main topic. Submit all ten references and the two-page overview with a title page.

Your paper must have

1. What information is in the abstract?
2. What is the purpose of the theoretical background?
3. What is the motivation and scope of the study?
4. Explain the research methods used.
5. What gaps and implications did the researchers identify?
6. What do the researchers include in the conclusions?

paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be three to four pages in length, not including the cover or reference pages.
