| Sažetak≠ | A prospective ecological study is an observational epidemiological design in which groups — not individuals — serve as the unit of analysis, and exposure data are collected going forward in time before outcomes are measured. Investigators define geographically, politically, or socially bounded populations, characterise their aggregate exposures at baseline, then ascertain group-level outcomes (disease rates, mortality rates) at one or more later time points. Because exposure precedes outcome measurement, this design provides stronger temporal evidence than retrospective ecological studies. | A cohort study assembles a group of individuals who share a common starting point — typically freedom from the outcome of interest — and follows them over time to observe who develops the outcome. By comparing incidence rates between exposed and unexposed subgroups, researchers can estimate relative risk and absolute risk differences. Cohort studies are the gold-standard observational design for measuring disease incidence and establishing temporal relationships between exposure and outcome. |
