What is epidemiology?
Etymology
• Epi = on, with
• Demos = people, population
• Logos = knowledge of
• Epidemiology = The knowledge of what lies on people
Purpose
• Monitor health and illness in populations – determine burden of disease
• Identification of cause and risk factors of disease
• Study natural history and prognosis of disease
• Evaluate preventive and therapeutic measures
• Provide evidence for public health policy and clinical practice

Increased lung cancer mortality
• Steep and continuous increase in lung cancer mortality during the first part of the 20th century in Western countries.
• For example the lung cancer mortality of English men increased from 1,1 pr. 100.000 in 1901-20 to 10,6 pr. 100,000 in 1936-9.
• In UK the lung cancer mortality increased 6 times for men and 3 times for women from 1921-30 to 1940-44.

The role of epidemiology
Is to assembling a diverse body of facts from different sources into a coherent explanation.
”Epidemiology is something more than the total of its established facts. It includes their orderly arrangement into chains of inference which extend more or less beyond the bonds of direct observation”
American epidemiologist Wade Hampton Frost
