Normal Bone Density Osteopenia Osteoporosis

1. There is evidence from the data that ownership of TV sets is related to level of income. The data shows that as income levels increase from low to middle to high, the percentage of households that own a TV set also increases. 2. The examination results are not commensurate with the general examination ratio of 4:3:2:1. The data shows a higher percentage of students failed and in the third class than expected from the given ratio. 3. The number of scooter accidents per week in a town are not in agreement that accident conditions were the same during the 10-week period. The data shows variation in the number of accidents from week to week, indicating conditions likely differed.

1.

A manufacturer of TV sets was trying to find out what variables


influenced the purchase of a TV set. Level of income was suggested as a
possible variable influencing the purchase of TV sets. A sample of 500
households was selected and the information obtained is classified as
shown below:

Income Group Have Tv Set Do not have TV Set


Low income group 0 250
Middle income group 50 100
High income group 80 20

Is there evidence from the above data of a relation ownership of TV sets


and level of income?

2. A sample analysis of examination results of 500 students was made. It


was found that 220 students had failed, 170 had secured a third class, 90
were placed in second class, and 20 got a first class. Are these figures
commensurate with the general examination result which is in the ratio of
4 : 3 : 2 : 1 for the various categories respectively.
3. The number of scooter accidents per week in a certain town were as
follows:
 
 Are these frequencies in agreement with the belief that accident
conditions were the same during this 10-week period?

4. Calcium is an essential mineral that regulates the heart, is important for


blood clotting and for building healthy bones. The National osteoporosis
Foundation recommends a daily calcium intake of 1000-1200 mg/day for
adult men and women. While calcium is contained in some foods, most
adults do not get enough calcium in their diets and take supplements.
Unfortunately some of the supplements have side effects such as gastric
distress, making them difficult for some patients to take on a regular basis.
A study is designed to test whether there is a difference in mean daily
calcium intake in adults with normal bone density, adults with osteopenia (a
low bone density which may lead to osteoporosis) and adults with
osteoporosis. Adults 60 years of age with normal bone density, osteopenia
and osteoporosis are selected at random from hospital records and invited
to participate in the study. Each participant's daily calcium intake is
measured based on reported food intake and supplements. The data are
shown below.  
 

Normal Bone Osteopenia Osteoporosis


Density
1200 1000 890
1000 1100 650
980 700 1100
900 800 900
750 500 400
800 700 350

Is there a statistically significant difference in mean calcium intake in


patients with normal bone density as compared to patients with osteopenia
and osteoporosis?
