  1. What Is a Cohort Study?

    Cohort studies are a type of observational study that can be qualitative or quantitative in nature. They can be used to conduct both exploratory research and explanatory research depending on the research topic. In prospective cohort studies, data is collected over time to compare the occurrence of the outcome of interest in those who were ...

  2. Overview: Cohort Study Designs

    Since cohort studies are observational, study participants are monitored, and study interventions are not provided. ...

  3. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    Abstract. Cohort studies are types of observational studies in which a cohort, or a group of individuals sharing some characteristic, are followed up over time, and outcomes are measured at one or more time points. Cohort studies can be classified as prospective or retrospective studies, and they have several advantages and disadvantages.

  4. Research Design: Cohort Studies

    Abstract. In a cohort study, a group of subjects (the cohort) is followed for a period of time; assessments are conducted at baseline, during follow-up, and at the end of follow-up. Cohort studies are, therefore, empirical, longitudinal studies based on data obtained from a sample; they are also observational and (usually) naturalistic.

  5. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    Cohort studies can be either prospective or retrospective. The type of cohort study is determined by the outcome status. If the outcome has not occurred at the start of the study, then it is a prospective study; if the outcome has already occurred, then it is a retrospective study. 4 Figure 1 presents a graphical representation of the designs of prospective and retrospective cohort studies.

  6. An Introduction to the Fundamentals of Cohort and Case-Control Studies

    Design. In a case-control study, a number of cases and noncases (controls) are identified, and the occurrence of one or more prior exposures is compared between groups to evaluate drug-outcome associations ( Figure 1 ). A case-control study runs in reverse relative to a cohort study. 21 As such, study inception occurs when a patient ...

  7. Cohort Studies: Design, Analysis, and Reporting

    In clinical research, cohort studies are appropriate when there is evidence to suggest an association between an exposure and an outcome, and the time interval between exposure and the development of outcome is reasonable. Cohort studies are the design of choice for determining the incidence and natural history of a condition.

  8. Cohort studies investigating the effects of exposures: key principles

    Cohort studies are observational studies that follow groups of patients with different exposures forward in time and determine outcomes of interest in each exposure group or that investigate the ...

  9. What are cohort studies?

    Cohort studies are the cornerstone of epidemiological research, providing an understanding of risk factors for disease based on findings in thousands of participants over many years. Disease prevention guidelines used by nurses and other healthcare professionals across the globe are based on the evidence from high-profile studies, such as the ...

  10. Cohort study

    Cohort studies represent one of the fundamental designs of epidemiology which are used in research in the fields of medicine, pharmacy, nursing, psychology, social science, and in any field reliant on 'difficult to reach' answers that are based on evidence ( statistics ). In medicine for instance, while clinical trials are used primarily for ...

  13. Cohort Studies

    Introduction. This chapter summarizes the basic features of cohort studies, a type of observational epidemiology study that some have also called longitudinal, or prospective, though these terms also apply to other epidemiological designs. A cohort study evaluates both the risk and the rate of disease or disease-related outcomes in a population ...

  14. Methodology Series Module 1: Cohort Studies

    The term "cohort" refers to a group of people who have been included in a study by an event that is based on the definition decided by the researcher. For example, a cohort of people born in Mumbai in the year 1980. This will be called a "birth cohort.". Another example of the cohort will be people who smoke.

  15. Cohort studies: What they are, examples, and types

    Cohort studies are a powerful tool for conducting research in human populations. They are a type of longitudinal study design. Longitudinal studies follow participants over a period of time.

  16. What Is a Cohort Study?

    Purpose. Strengths. Weaknesses. A cohort study often looks at 2 (or more) groups of people that have a different attribute (for example, some smoke and some don't) to try to understand how the specific attribute affects an outcome. The goal is to understand the relationship between one group's shared attribute (in this case, smoking) and its ...

  17. Cohort Study: Definition, Designs & Examples

    A prospective cohort study is a type of longitudinal research where a group of individuals sharing a common characteristic (cohort) is followed over time to observe and measure outcomes, often to investigate the effect of suspected risk factors. In a prospective study, the investigators will design the study, recruit subjects, and collect ...
