Methods of randomisation in clinical trialsAmy Mehaboob
Randomization is the process by which allocation of subjects to treatment groups is done by chance, without the ability to predict who is in what group. A randomized clinical trial is a clinical trial in which participants are randomly assigned to separate groups that compare different treatments.
Randomized trials are gold standard of study designs because the potential for bias (selection into treatment groups) is avoided.
This document includes the purpose, types, advantages and disadvantages of each type of randomisation.

Study design, Epidemiological study designA study design is a specific plan or protocol
for conducting the study, which allows the investigator to translate the conceptual hypothesis into an operational one.
The most ambitious definition of health is that proposed by WHO in 1948: “health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” but,
Practical definitions of health and disease are needed in epidemiology, which concentrates on aspects of health that are easily measurable and amenable to improvement.
Definitions of health states used by epidemiologists tend to be simple.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

12. Case report
A Case Report is a detailed presentation of a single case or
handful of cases with unique features.
15. Case series
a simple descriptive account of a characteristic observed in
a group of subjects.
It is also known by the terms clinical series or clinical
audit.
18. Cross sectional study
An “observational” design that measures the
prevalence of exposures and disease status or disease
determinants at a single point in time (a cross-section
of the population).
22. 2. Case control study
An observational study in which we identify a sample
on disease status (Case), and a sample without
disease (Control) and ask retrospectively about
exposure.
26. Cohort study
Observational study in which we select a population
that is exposed to a certain factor of interest and the
entire population is followed up to determine the
incidence.
30. Clinical Trials
“Clinical trials are research studies that explore
whether a medical strategy, treatment, or device is
safe and effective for humans.”

June 28, in New York City, Ardouin Antonio, a 49-year-old Jamaican-American shipping clerk dies of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, a disease closely associated with AIDS. Gordon Hennigar, who performed the postmortem examination of the man's body, found "the first reported instance of unassociated Pneumocystis carinii disease in an adult" to be so unusual that he preserved Ardouin's lungs for later study. The case was published in two medical journals at the time, and Hennigar has been quoted in numerous publications saying that he believes Ardouin probably had AIDSكانت البداية مجموعة افراد ماتوا من سبب واحد وهو نوع من الالتهاب الروى الى بيحصل بالارطباط مع الايدز نتيجة نقص المناعة .. الراجل الى شرحهم لقى فيهم فيروس
In a matched case-control study, one or more controls are selected to match to a case on certain characteristics, such as age, race, and gender.
When one control is matched to a case, the case and the matched control form a matched pair.
Two types of matched pairs are identified by the similarity or difference of the exposure of the case and control in each pair.
