Analytical studies have a comparison group, descriptive studies do not have a comparison group. A cohort study is a type of analytical study, and a correlative study is a type of descriptive study.

I'm not sure if this is what you were looking for because it might be too intuitive.LIPX3 wrote:What type of pathogen relies on water-bourne transmission?
Water borne diseases. A specific example would be giardiasis.

Because no one has posted in a couple of days.
Name two diseases that are approaching global eradication.
So much to do, so little time.

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
During an outbreak investigation, an epidemiologist does door to door, asking everyone what they ate recently as well as if they had a disease or not. What type of study is this?
