  1. This 2007 paper emphasizes that readers should systematically assess methods used to identify measure and analysis confounding in observations cohort studies. Studies looking at acquisition of illness in humans must include adequately matched cases and controls such that they are interchangeable; accurate recordation of symptoms and correlation with objective laboratory studies. Addition of genomic studies is of tremendous importance

  2. The renal dialysis literature contains interesting twist on classical epidemiology. “Reverse epidemiology,” looks at assumptions made regarding health and populations that are reversed in their findings in people with renal failure and dialysis. This paper simply supports the need to look at projective perimeters prospectively without assumptions

  3. The exposure misclassification ie assigning a case to a control and a control to be a case, will limit interpretation of any retrospective epidemiologic studies

    Methodological issues regarding confounding and exposure misclassification in epidemiological studies of occupational exposures. Am J Ind Med · 2007

  4. Measurement error in explanatory variables and unmeasured confounders cause considerable problems in epidemiologic studies. Any assumptions made in epidemiologic studies must be plausible. An example of an implausible study gives the assumption that a one time exposure of rats to spores can be extrapolated to human health effects with chronic low dose exposure to a multi factorial environment found in water-damaged buildings

  5. Bias can be introduced into a case control study by misclassification of patients. Use of a clinical trial with a study design called AB B prime AB avoids differential misclassification

    Patterns of bias due to differential misclassification by case-control status in a case-control study. Eur J Epidemiol · 2007

  6. Occupational epidemiology studies contain significant potential for bias including selection bias, information bias and the role of confounding. Selection bias can be minimized by obtaining high response rates. Information bias is minimized by avoiding elements such as questionnaires. Confounding of exposure demands that exposure remains constant. Our interventional studies follow these principals eliminating bias
