A.The study of factors that create and maintain health
B.The study of disease origin and progression
C.The legal framework for statutory health insurance
D.A statistical measure of disease frequency in a population
Explanation: Salutogenese (Antonovsky's concept) focuses on the origins of health and the factors that support well-being, complementing the traditional pathogenic (disease-focused) model.
2Which of the following best describes "primäre Prävention" (primary prevention)?
A.Measures taken to prevent a disease before it occurs, such as vaccination
B.Early detection of an existing disease before symptoms appear
C.Treatment to prevent complications of an already diagnosed disease
D.Rehabilitation of a patient after recovery from illness
Explanation: Primäre Prävention aims to stop disease before it develops at all, e.g., through vaccination, healthy lifestyle promotion, or eliminating risk factors.
3The Ottawa Charta (WHO, 1986) is closely associated with which public health concept?
A.Gesundheitsförderung (health promotion) and empowerment
B.The founding of the German statutory health insurance system
C.The International Classification of Diseases (ICD)
D.The concept of evidence-based medicine
Explanation: The 1986 Ottawa Charter is the foundational WHO document for the modern concept of Gesundheitsförderung, emphasizing empowerment and enabling people to increase control over their own health.
4In epidemiology, what does "Prävalenz" (prevalence) measure?
A.The proportion of a population that has a disease at a given point or period in time
B.The number of new cases of a disease occurring within a time period
C.The number of deaths caused by a specific disease
D.The percentage of diagnosed people who die from the disease
Explanation: Prävalenz counts all existing cases (new and old) of a disease within a population at a specific point or period in time.
5What does "Inzidenz" measure in epidemiology?
A.The number of new cases of a disease occurring in a population during a specified time period
B.The total number of existing cases at a single point in time
C.The overall death rate from all causes in a population
D.The percentage of a population that has been vaccinated
Explanation: Inzidenz measures how many new cases of a disease appear in a defined population over a defined time period, making it a key measure of disease risk.
6The risk of a disease is 20% in an unexposed (control) group and 10% in a group receiving a preventive intervention. What is the Relative Risk Reduction (RRR)?
A.50%
B.10%
C.100%
D.5%
Explanation: RRR = (Risk in control − Risk in intervention) / Risk in control = (20% − 10%) / 20% = 10%/20% = 50%.
7A study recruits subjects based on their outcome status (e.g., disease vs. no disease) and looks backward in time to assess past exposure. What type of study is this?
A.A retrospective (case-control) study
B.A prospective cohort study
C.A randomized controlled trial
D.A cross-sectional study
Explanation: Case-control studies are retrospective: they start with an outcome (cases vs. controls) and look backward to compare past exposures.
8Which term describes a disease that occurs at a constant, predictable baseline level within a specific population or region?
A.Endemie (endemic)
B.Epidemie (epidemic)
C.Pandemie (pandemic)
D.Inzidenz
Explanation: An Endemie describes a disease that is consistently present at an expected baseline rate in a particular geographic area or population.
9Which clinical trial phase is typically a large-scale, often randomized-controlled study conducted just before a drug receives market approval, comparing it against standard treatment or placebo?
A.Phase III
B.Phase I
C.Phase IV
D.Phase II
Explanation: Phase III trials are large-scale confirmatory studies comparing the new treatment against standard care or placebo, providing the key evidence for regulatory approval.
10The Number Needed to Treat (NNT) is calculated as:
A.1 divided by the Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR)
B.The total number of patients enrolled in a clinical trial
C.1 divided by the Relative Risk (RR)
D.The number of patients who experience side effects
Explanation: NNT = 1 / ARR, indicating how many patients must be treated with an intervention to prevent one additional adverse outcome, compared to the control.
