Migraine and Acupuncture: A migraine is a particularly painful type of headache, which patients sometimes wish to treat with acupuncture. To determine whether acupuncture relieves migraine pain, researchers conducted a randomized controlled study where 164 patients diagnosed with migraine headaches were randomly assigned to one of two groups: treatment or control. 70 patients in the treatment group received acupuncture that is specifically designed to treat migraines. 94 patients in the control group received placebo acupuncture (needle insertion at non-acupoint locations). 24 hours after patients received acupuncture, they were asked if they were pain free. Results are summarized in the contingency table below. Test to see if migraine pain relief is dependent on receiving acupuncture. Use a = 0.05.

Consider a situation where you have a parental cross with the mother and father phenotypes listed below. Remember that the genotype for the wild-type parent is always homozygous. The counts of the F1offspring are listed in Table 1. Two randomly selected individuals are selected and mated to produce a set of F2individuals. If you test the F2counts to determine whether they are consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, what is your decision? Use a 0.05 significance level. PARENTAL CROSS Parental cross: Mother with disease phenotype, Father with wild-type phenotype. Table 1. F1 DATA Gender Phenotype Disease Wild-type Male 0 23 Female 0 34 Table 2. F2 DATA Gender Phenotype Disease Wild-type Male 7 25 Female 0 25 A. Do not reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance; chi-square goodness of fit test p-value is greater than 0.05. B.

Vitamin E and the Risk of Prostate Cancer: Klien et al (2011) conducted the following study to determine the effect of vitamin E and selenium treatment on the risk of developing prostate cancer in healthy men. A total of 34,887 men from different study sites in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico were randomly selected. To be eligible to participate, the men had to take a rectal examination that showed he was not suspicious of having prostate cancer and be aged 50 years or older for black men and 55 years or older for all others. Each man was randomly assigned to receive one of four treatments: selenium, vitamin E, selenium and vitamin E together, or a placebo. The men were followed up after 8 years to see if they had developed prostate cancer or not. The main question of interest is to determine if the risk of developing prostate cancer differs by the treatment taken. The data are summarized in the table below: No Prostate Cancer Prostate Cancer Total Selenium 8,752 8,737 8,702…
A researcher crosses mice with brown eyes and short tails, and the F1 progeny were recovered in the following numbers and phenotypic classes:F1: 32 apricot, short : 30 brown, long : 139 brown, short : 9 apricot, longYou know the genes encoding these traits are autosomal, completely dominant and assort independently. You want to use a chi-square test to analyse these results. a) Give the expected number of individuals in the “brown, short” class. b) What is your null hypothesis for the chi-square test?
A study indicates that CB radio use speeds up activity in the brain. As part of a randomized crossover study, 36 participants were fitted with a CB radio device on each ear and then underwent two positron emission topography, or PET, scans to measure brain glucose metabolism. During one scan, the CB radios were both turned off. During the other scan, an automated 40- minute muted signal was sent to the radio on the right ear. The order of when the signal was received (for the first or second scan) was randomized. Comparison of the PET scans showed a minor increase in activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna during the transmission of the automated signal. Was this an observational study or an experiment? Explain why. O The study is an observational study because the reseashers cannot control the response variable during the signal. O The study is an observational study because the researchers only observe values of the response and explanatory variables. O The study is…
Migraine and Acupuncture: A migraine is a particularly painful type of headache, which patients sometimes wish to treat with acupuncture. To determine whether acupuncture relieves migraine pain, researchers conducted a randomized controlled study where 161 patients diagnosed with migraine headaches were randomly assigned to one of two groups: treatment or control. 65 patients in the treatment group received acupuncture that is specifically designed to treat migraines. 96 patients in the control group received placebo acupuncture (needle insertion at non-acupoint locations). 24 hours after patients received acupuncture, they were asked if they were pain free.

Assortative mating is a nonrandom mating pattern where individuals with similar genotypes and/or phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than what would be expected under a random mating pattern. Researchers studied this topic and collected data on Scandinavian men and their female partners. They found out 60% of Scandinavian men have blue eyes. Among those men with blue eyes, 80% of them choose female partners with blue eyes. Among those Scandinavian men whose eye color is not blue, 20% of them have partners with blue eyes. Given that a man’s partner has blue eyes, what’s that probability this man has blue eyes? If 60% of Scandinavian men have blue eyes and you randomly select 8 men, what’s the probability that none of them has blue eyes?
The Salk vaccine against polio was tested in 1954 in a carefully designed field experiment. Approximately, 400,000 children took part in this experiment. Using a randomization procedure, the children were randomly divided into 2 groups of equal size, a treatment group, and a control group. The vaccine was given only to the children in the treatment group; the control group children received placebo injections. The children did not know which of the two groups they had been placed into. The diagnosticians also lacked this information. 57 children in the treatment group went on to contract polio, while 142 children in the control group contracted the illness. How likely would such a difference in outcomes be when the assignment to the treatment or control group had absolutely no effect on the outcomes?
Recent research findings have shown that older people who practice ballroom dancing are 77% less likely to experience dementia compared to those senior citizens who did not dance. Drawing on this surprising result, Dr. Anders Ericsson thinks that ballroom dancing may also reduce one's level of stress to a greater extent than conventional exercise routines. To validate his claim Dr. Ericsson has randomly selected 100 senior citizens who were then randomly split into two groups, with the first group practicing ballroom dancing 3 times a week and the second group undergoing a conventional exercise regiment 3 times a week also. The measures of stress were assessed for each participant after the study was completed. What is the most appropriate set of hypotheses for this study?

Female undergraduates in randomized groups of 15 took part in a self-esteem study. The study measured an index of self-esteem from the point of view of competence, social acceptance, and physical attractiveness. Let x1, x2, and x3 be random variables representing the measure of self-esteem through x1 (competence), x2 (social acceptance), and x3 (attractiveness). Higher index values mean a more positive influence on self- esteem. Variable Sample Mean Standard Deviation Population Size Мean 15 19.48 2.92 X1 X2 X3 (a) Find a 90% confidence interval for u1 - 42.
