Etiologic Fraction

Etiologic Fraction is a measure in epidemiology that quantifies the proportion of disease cases in a population that would be prevented if exposure to a specific causal factor were eliminated, accounting for the time-varying nature of disease development and distinguishing it from mere statistical association by focusing on causal pathogenesis.
