Absolutely nothing in the available arsenal of
anti-emetics worked at all. I was miserable and
came to dread the frequent treatments with an
almost perverse intensity. I had heard that
marijuana often worked well against nausea. I
was reluctant to try it because I had never
smoked any substance habitually (and didnt even
know how to inhale). Moreover, I had tried
marijuana twice (in the 1960s) and had hated it
. Marijuana worked like a charm . The sheer
bliss of not experiencing nausea - and not having
to fear it for all the days intervening between
treatments - was the greatest boost I received in
all my year of treatment, and surely the most
important effect upon my eventual cure.

Just as in the controlled trial, the
epidemiologist is also on the train during the
entire journey. But there is an important
difference. The epidemiologist is not telling
passengers what to do. Rather, the
epidemiologist is just observing them and
counting. Passengers are not being told to have
or not have an exposure, they are just living
their normal lives. The epidemiologist, on the
ride for the whole journey, just keeps observing
everyones exposures and whether or not they
develop the disease during the journey.

Case-Control Study
The epidemiologist is not on the journey.
Rather, the epidemiologist is waiting at the
train station at the end of the journey. As
passengers get off the train, the epidemiologist
selects sick passengers for the case group and
selects passengers who are similar but not sick
for the control group. The epidemiologist then
asks each person in the case group and control
group questions about their exposures during the
train ride. The epidemiologist relies on
passengers memories of their exposures that
occurred during the train ride.

The epidemiologist, who has not been on the
journey, stops the train somewhere during the
trip (kind of like a train robbery) and takes a
snapshot of all the passengers by asking them
whether or not they have the exposure and whether
or not they have the disease. Then the
epidemiologist leaves the train and goes home to
analyze the data from that particular day. The
journey continues without the epidemiologist.

Explaining Associations and Judging Causation
In what circumstances can we pass
from this observed association
to a verdict of causation?

Explaining Associations and Judging Causation
Here then are nine different viewpoints
from all of which we should study association
before we cry causation.

Explaining Associations and Judging Causation
Does evidence from an aggregate of studies
support a
cause-effect relationship?
  1.   What is the strength of the association
between the risk factor and the disease? 2.  
Can a biological gradient be demonstrated? 3.  
Is the finding consistent? Has it been
replicated by others in other places? 4.   Have
studies established that the risk factor precedes
the disease? 5.   Is the risk factor associated
with one disease or many different
diseases? 6.   Is the new finding coherent with
earlier knowledge about the risk factor and the
m disease? 7.   Are the implications of the
observed findings biologically sensible? 8.   Is
there experimental evidence, in humans or
animals, in which the disease has m been
produced by controlled administration of the risk
factor?
