Tool # 3 3. Prevalence – calculations to quantify outcomes in populations; prevalence ratios (comparisons) provide a measure of association between exposure and outcome as d ate or l u lc tion a C rac ge a f t a cen per Eve out ryone com with e and th – lon rece e g-te nt rm Especially used in cross-sectional studies 7
From Epi Textbooks The main outcome measure obtained from a cross-sectional study is prevalence. A cross-sectional study is sometimes called a prevalence study. 8
Prevalence The number of people with a specified condition or event, among a specified population and at a specified time The proportion of a population found to have a condition (typically a disease such as diabetes or a health-related behavior such as smoking or seat-belt use) 9

Express it in numbers The Numerator is the number of people in the population or sample who experienced the outcome or effect, in this case, wearing blue. The Denominator is the total number of people in the population or sample, in this case, total number of students in the class. 11
Prevalence of wearing blue Numerator The number of students who are wearing blue Denominator All the students in the class 12
Prevalence of wearing blue # in class x 100 = % wearing blue = Prevalence 13
Prevalence of wearing glasses Numerator The number of students who are wearing glasses Denominator All the students in the class 14
Prevalence of wearing glasses # in class x 100 = % wearing glasses = Prevalence 15

Prevalence Ratio A comparison of two prevalences Calculated by dividing the prevalence of the outcome in the exposed by the prevalence of the outcome in the unexposed a/(a+b) divided by c/(c+d). 19

Results from some Epi Teams in Paterson NJ Epi Stars - Drinking at least 2 cans or a 20 -ounce bottle of non-diet soda every day leads to a crash (feeling tired) - PR = 2. 5 Pop Science – A healthy breakfast is associated with playing in an organized sport - PR = 0. 96 Hypertensions – Receiving a daily, weekly, or monthly allowance is related to eating junk food/unhealthy food more than twice a day - PR = 1. 6 Dr. Observation – Healthy eating (at least 2 servings of fruit and vegetables a day) results in better grades (“doing well in school”) - PR = 1. 0 31
Quick Summary of Cross-Sectional Study Calculations • Questions about exposure and outcome are answered simultaneously. • Answers on exposure and outcome can be put into a 2 x 2 table. o A “yes/no” answer will fit o If using a multiple choice question, a predetermined “cut point” is needed to define a “higher/lower” range to fit into a 2 x 2 table. • Counts in the 2 x 2 table allow calculations of prevalence • Comparisons of prevalences (prevalence ratio) allows a statement about the association between exposure and outcome. 32
Measure of Risk The prevalence ratio (PR) is a measure of risk used in cross-sectional studies. It compares prevalence in the exposed to prevalence in the unexposed. A ratio of 1. 0 denotes no difference between the two groups. Examples Interpreting PR and Confidence Intervals No difference between exposed and unexposed Prevalence Ratio

Perform a few practice calculations as needed 35
Deck Worksheet – page 2 Calculate the prevalence of the outcome – for the exposed group and for the unexposed group. Calculate the prevalence ratio. Populate the 2 x 2 table on page 1 with the above information. Make a statement that uses the prevalence ratio to describe size of the association. 36
