CONEJERO, Antonio Martín  y  ALONSO-GARCIA, Marcos. Epidemiological studies or how should we design our research? (part one). Angiología [online]. 2023, vol.75, n.5, pp.321-325.  Epub 11-Dic-2023. ISSN 1695-2987.  https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/angiologia.00543.

Methodological knowledge is essential to implement our research projects and epidemiological designs. Adequate design will allow us to adequately communicate the results of our clinical experience.

There are different types of design depending on multiple factors such as the active participation of the investigator, the randomization of patients or the composition of the control group. It is essential to be familiar with them in order to know which is the most appropriate to start our journey as researchers.

In this paper we show the characteristics and terminology with which we refer to the different epidemiological designs and we will present some of these designs, which we will finish in future papers.

Palabras clave : Epidemiological studies; Design; Research.
