Explanation:

Cohort studies observe a number of people over a period of time to discover the factors pertaining to a disease such as its causes and effects. It can be prospective, which uses data gathered in the future or retrospective which uses data already collected.

Existing data. and the study of diseases with a long latency between exposure and symptoms development apply to retrospective cohort study.
