  1. Two groups of diabetic patients were randomly selected. One group included 50 females and the second group 50 males. All 100 subjects administered the same oral anti-diabetic drug for a month. The drug’s efficiency on controlling the disease was measured using a recovery scale: full recovery, partial recovery, and no recovery. (1)The statistical tests used to measure the relationship between gender and the efficiency of the drug is: (a) Chi-square test (b) Independent t- test (c) Dependent t- test (d) Z-test (e) None of the above (2) According to your answer for the above question , the degree of freedom would be: a. 98 b. 49 c.2 d. 6 e. 3

  2. (3)The diastolic blood pressures (DBP) of a group of young men are normally distributed with mean 70 mmHg and a standard deviation of 10 mmHg. 95% of the men will have DBP between: • 50 mmHg and 90 mmHg b. 60 mmHg and 80 mmHg • 40 mmHg and 70 mmHg • 80 mmHg and 100 mmHg e. 65 mmHg and 75 mmHg

  3. (4) If a population’s resting heart rate is normally distributed with a mean of 70 beats/min and standard deviation of 10, what proportion of people who are selected at random will have heart rate of less than or equal to 90 beats/min? a. 50.00% b. 4.13% c . 97.72% d. 01.83% e. 2.82%

  4. (5) Answer the following as TRUE OR FALSE The p-value: a. Is the probability that the null hypothesis is false. b. Is large for small studies. • Is the probability of the observed result, or one more extreme, if the null hypothesis were true. • Is one minus the type-II error. e. Can only take a limited number of values such as 0.1, 0.05, 0.01 etc.

  5. A physician wants to know whether the proportion of esophageal cancer diagnosed as multiple primary tumors (MPT) differs between females and males.
