Interpreting Correlations When you encounter correlations, there are four additional considerations that you should bear in mind: 1. Correlation simply describes a relationship between two variables. It does not explain why the two variables are related. Specifically, a correlation should not and cannot be interpreted as proof of a cause-and-effect relationship between the two variables. 2. The value of a correlation can be affected greatly by the range of scores represented in the data.

A Proctologist is able to perform colorectal surgery, and often works with urologists, OBGYNs or gastroenterologists. Some of the conditions a Proctologist can treat include fecal incontinence, severe constipation, cancer of the colon or rectum, hemorrhoids and fissures.
A proctologist is a specialist focused on the diagnoses and treatment of the rectum or anus. These doctors are often called colorectal surgeons. In practice, they often work closely with urologists. The rectum or anus is part of the digestive system and is the last six to eight inches (15.2 cm to 20.3 cm)of the colon. The first requirement to become a proctologist is to complete medical school.
