Temporal bias in case-control design: preventing reliable predictions of the future

One of the primary tools that researchers use to predict risk is the case-control study. Here, the authors identify a flaw, temporal bias, that is specific to and uniquely associated with these studies that occurs when the study period is not representative of the data that clinicians have during th...
