In 1965, Sir Austin Bradford Hill proposed guidelines for assessing causality. His intention was not for these to be used in a rigid manner but rather to be used as a guide. <br/> <br/>For this Application Assignment, review your resources on Hill''s guidelines for causality. Then find a review journal article dealing with an association where causality is hypothesized based on an assessment of the body of literature on a topic. Analyze this article using Hill''s guidelines. Then respond to the following questions: <br/> <br/>Does the article use Hill''s guidelines to determine causality? <br/>If so, are they each addressed thoroughly? <br/>If not, describe the alternative means used for assessing causality. <br/>How well do you believe Hill''s guidelines work as a tool for determining causality for the association your review article addresses?
