Descriptive epidemiology
Describes disease and/or exposure and may
consist of calculating rates, e.g., incidence and
prevalence.
Such descriptive studies do not use control
groups and can only generate hypotheses, not
test them.
Studies of drug utilization would generally
fall under descriptive studies.
Analytic epidemiology
Observational studies ( such as case-control and
cohort studies)
Experimental studies (such as randomized clinical
trials)
The analytic studies compare an exposed
group with a control group and are usually
designed as hypothesis testing studies.
