QUESTION 38 2 pc The following information is used for Q36-Q39. The next part of the assignment is designed to guide you through the calculations for determining whether a variable is a confounding variable. These calculations can get detailed, and it is strongly suggested that you use scrap paper to perform these calculations. (Please note that the data, although plausible, are hypothetical.) To determine whether baldness (exposure) causes coronary heart disease (CHD-outcome) in men, a hypothetical cohort study was carried out. The epidemiologist in charge of the study recruited 10,000 bald men and 10,000 men with hair into the study and followed all of them for 10 years to determine whether they developed CHD. Results are shown below. CHD - Yes CHD - No Total Bald 775 9,225 10,000 Hair 190 9,810 10,000 Total 965 19,035 20,000 What is the relative risk of CHD associated with baldness? Provide your answer in a rounded, whole number with no decimals or comumas. QUESTION 39 2 pc The following information is used for Q36-Q39.

To determine whether baldness (exposure) causes coronary heart disease (CHD-outcome) in men, a hypothetical cohort study was carried out. The epidemiologist in charge of the study recruited 10,000 bald men and 10.000 men with hair into the study and followed all of them for 10 years to determine whether they developed CHD. Results are shown below. CHD - Yes CHD - No Total Bald 775 9,225 10,000 Hair 190 9,810 10,000 Total 965 19,035 20,000 True or False. This result the RR you calculated) suggests that baldness may be a cause of CHD. True False
