Intro to Epidemiology
The dose-response relationship describes the correlation between the amount of exposure to a substance (the dose) and the magnitude of the response or effect it produces in a population. Understanding this relationship is crucial for determining how different levels of exposure can lead to varying health outcomes, which is important for making causal inferences, assessing strengths and limitations of evidence, and evaluating risks in occupational and environmental contexts.
