  2. Introduction • Framing a research question for prospective cohort studies requires careful consideration of the specific research topic and population of interest. • Here are some steps to follow to frame a research question and sub-questions for prospective cohort studies: • 1.Identify the main research question: The main research question should be a focused, hypothesis-driven question that clearly defines the research objective. • 2.Define the population of interest: The research question should clearly define the population of interest • 3.Specify the exposure or intervention of interest: The exposure or intervention of interest should be specified in the research question.. • 4.Consider the outcome of interest: The research question should clearly define the outcome of interest. • 5.Develop sub-questions: Sub-questions can be used to provide more detail and clarity to the main research question.

  3. Example research question: Does regular physical activity reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease among middle-aged adults over a 10-year period, compared to sedentary ones? Sub-questions: • What is the incidence rate of cardiovascular disease among the study population over the 10 years? • What is the level of physical activity among the study population, and how does it vary over time? • What are the demographic and lifestyle characteristics of the study population, and how do they influence the risk of cardiovascular disease? • How does the risk of cardiovascular disease vary according to different levels of physical activity after controlling for other demographic and lifestyle factors? • What is the dose-response relationship between physical activity and the risk of cardiovascular disease among middle-aged adults over a 10-year period? contd...

  4. Some possible research objectives based on the research question: • To investigate the incidence rate of cardiovascular disease among middle-aged adults over a 10-year period. • Assess the level of physical activity among the study population and how it varies over time. • To examine the demographic and lifestyle characteristics of the study population and how they influence the risk of cardiovascular disease. • After controlling for other demographic and lifestyle factors, determine the relationship between physical activity and cardiovascular disease risk among middle-aged adults. • To explore the dose-response relationship between physical activity and the risk of cardiovascular disease among middle-aged adults over a 10-year period.
