Answer of the cohort questions:


1. What is/are the exposure(s) of interest?
Macrosomic neonates
2. What’s the main outcome of interest?
Dental caries.
3. Is the population experience from opened or closed cohort?
Closed cohort, because the study using data form participant from some period of time ( 1997-
2006) so no more additional participant. In fact, the number of participants were getting
smaller
4. Calculate cumulative incidence ratio and cumulative incidence difference for all dental caries
comparing children whose parents sometimes or never brushed the child’s teeth at 3 years to
those whose parents brushed their teeth daily
Cumulative Incidence Ratio = 53.924/117.175 = 47 / 100 person-years
CI (sometimes or never brushed teeth) = 8459/13.867 = 0.610
CI (daily brushed teeth) = 44.103/101.153 =0.436
Rate Difference = 13.867 -101.153=-87.286
