Easy SAS calculations for risk or prevalence ratios and differences.
We would like to make the readership aware that risk or prevalence ratios and differences, when they are the parameter of interest, can be directly calculated by using SAS software (SAS Institute, Inc., Cary, North Carolina). There is no longer any good justification for fitting logistic regression models and estimating odds ratios when the odds ratio is not a good approximation of the risk or ...
متن کاملRe: "Easy SAS calculations for risk or prevalence ratios and differences".
We applaud Drs. Spiegelman and Hertzmark’s idea of using SAS procedure PROC GENMOD to estimate the risk ratio or difference (1). However, we have reservations about 1) the claim that there is no good justification for fitting the logistic regression and estimating the odds ratio when the odds ratio is not a good approximation of the risk ratio, and 2) using Poisson regression (PROC GENMOD) to e...
متن کاملNoninferiority trial designs for odds ratios and risk differences.
This study presents constrained maximum likelihood derivations of the design parameters of noninferiority trials for binary outcomes with the margin defined on the odds ratio (ψ) or risk-difference (δ) scale. The derivations show that, for trials in which the group-specific response rates are equal under the point-alternative hypothesis, the common response rate, π(N), is a fixed design paramet...
متن کاملComputing adjusted risk ratios and risk differences in Stata
This paper explains how to calculate adjusted risk ratios and risk differences when reporting results from logit, probit, and related nonlinear models. Building on Stata’s margins command, we create a new post-estimation command adjrr that calculates adjusted risk ratios (ARR) and adjusted risk differences (ARD) after running logit or probit models with either binary, multinomial, or ordered ou...
متن کاملSAS/OR®: Introducing SAS® Simulation Studio
Discrete event simulation is used to model, study, plan, and improve systems in which random events play a dominant role. These systems are often driven by complicated mathematical and logical relationships, making it impossible to derive an analytical solution. The journal OR/MS Today cites simulation software as one of the most widely used tools in operations research, due in part to its appl...
