To assess the impact to the population as a whole, estimations or real-world data reflecting product risk and behavior are used to assess changes in mortality or morbidity in a population. 

Parameters used as inputs to population modeling; not subject-level data. 

Models are made up of  inputs, programs/coding, and outputs

  • inputs: come from specific studies, published lit, gov't databases (census data, etc)
    • everything has to be extrapolated to the population level; inputs are not subject-level
    • categories of inputs
      • Product risk
      • transition probabilities/rates (behavior)
        • initial population (file) - describing states of tobacco use covered by the model
        • transition probability (file)
      • population attributes broken down by demographic characteristics (files)
        • birth rate 
        • morbidity/mortality 
        • initial tobacco prevalence
        • immigration rates 
  • programs/coding
    • ...
