A healthcare provider monitors the number of CAT scans perfomed each month in each of its clinics. The most recent year of data for a particular clinics follows (the reported variable is the number of CAT scans each month expressed as the number of CAT scans per thousand members of the health plan): 2.31.2.09. 2.36, 1.95, 1.98, 2.25. 2.16, 2.07. 1.88, 1.94, 1.97, 2.02. Find a two sided 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation. What should you do to address any reservations about this confidence interval? Round your answers to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76). Sos

2) Consider the following data from a hypothetical case control study examining the relationship between tanning bed use in young adulthood and risk of melanoma Cases 688 196 History of Tanning Bed Use Yes No Controls 288 864 a) Name the appropriate measure of association for estimating the relative risk of melanoma, comparing tanning bed users (exposed) to nonusers (reference category). Calculate this measure and provide a brief interpretation of your answer b) Assume that this relationship is causal. Among young people who use tanning beds, what proportion of melanoma risk could be eliminated by banning tanning bed use in young adults? c) If 4% of all young adults use tanning beds, what proportion of melanoma risk could be eliminated from the overall general population by banning the use of tanning beds in young adults?

2. The following exercises are based on a study by Scholer et el. (1997). This was a nested case-control study obtained from a cohort of children age 0 through 4 years in Tennessee between January 1, 1991 and December 31, 1995. Case patients consist of all cohort members who suffered injury deaths. Control patients were frequency matched to case patients by birth year. The variables are; .

1. The data in Table 7–6 were collected in a clinical trial to evaluate a new compound designed to improve wound healing in trauma patients. The new compound was com- pared against a placebo. After treatment for 5 days with the new compound or placebo, the extent of wound healing was measured. Is there a difference in the extent of wound healing between the treatments? (Hint: Are treatment and the percent wound healing independent?) Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. Use the data in Problem 1. Pool the data across the treatments into one sample of size n = 250. Use the pooled data to test whether the distribution of the percent wound healing is approximately normal. Specifically, use the following distribution 30%, 40%, 20%, and 10% and a = 0.05 to run the appropriate test. Percent Wound Healing Treatment 0-25% 26-50% 51-75% 76-100% New compound (n=125) 15 37 32 41 Placebo (n=125) 36 45 34 10
