Use of human epidemiology studies in proving causation.

Defense Counsel Journal | October 1, 2000| | Copyright

Epidemiology studies can be used to establish only general causation, but there are many criteria that can be employed to test those studies

EPIDEMIOLOGY studies examine populations--generally smaller subsets or samples of populations--in an attempt to determine whether there is an association between exposure to a substance or factor and subsequent disease or injury. These studies are commonly used in the courts to support or refute claims that exposure to a substance or factor caused a disease or an injury in a specific plaintiff or group of plaintiffs.
