The right answer is Iatrogenic illness.

Glaucoma is an eye disease that affects mostly people over the age of 45. It is characterized by an increase in eye pressure leading to an impairment of the optic nerve and the visual field. They are treated with antiglaucomatous agents.

Some antiglaucomatous agents are betablockers, they certainly act on the ocular level by decreasing the ocular tension, but the long-term treatment makes that the drug goes to the blood level and acts at the level of the heart to cause a bradycardia.

The mean resting pulse rate for men is 72 beats per minute. a simple random sample of men who regularly work out at mitch's gym
tamaranim1 [39]

Claim: the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.

Symbolic form would be: μ < 72

Step 1: null hypothesis  : μ > =  7 2 b p m

Step 2: alternative hypothesis:  μ <  7 2 b p m



Step 3: the test statistic is z = mean – μ / standard dev/sqrt (n) = -3/4 / 1.7639 = -1.92


Step 4: c v method: since z α = -1.645, the test static is z = -1.92 is less than the CV, we reject null hypothesis


            P Value method: area is 0.0274, since the p value is <= α, reject null hypothesis.

Step 5: the sample data support the claim that the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.
