Sommario/riassunto

Biostatistics and Microbiology enables the reader to access and apply statistical methods that generally frustrate and intimidate the uninitiated. Statistics, like chemistry, microbiology, woodworking, or sewing, requires that the individual put some time into learning the concepts and methods. This book presents a step-by-step manner that eliminates the greatest obstacle to the learner, which is applying the many processes that comprise a statistical method. The author counters the fear of statistical methods by describing early in the book a step-by-step procedure to perform a statistical method - a process that we will term "the six-step procedure." All of the testing will be performed adhering to six well-defined steps, which will greatly simplify the statistical process. Each step in the sequence must be completed before moving on to the next step. In the context of microbiology, statistics can be extremely useful in making interpretations and decisions concerning collected data. Statistics, then, is a way of formally communicating the interpretation of clinical or



experimental data and is particularly important when a treatment result is not clearly differentiable from another treatment.

Sommario/riassunto

"Dr. Waqar Ahmed Qureshi has found that most of these perianal and anorectal problems can be successfully treated non-surgically. Diagnosis and Management Guide for Ano-Rectal Disease: A Clinical Reference reviews a number of diseases that gastroenterologists should be able to effectively manage in their office which eliminates extra cost, inconvenience, and frustration for patients. The gastroenterologist occupies a unique position between conservative treatment offered by primary care physicians and the more invasive procedures offered by the surgeon. Diagnosis and Management Guide for Ano-Rectal Disease: A Clinical Reference is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of anorectal diseases that they can manage and, therefore, improve the care of their patients"--
