PLoS Medicine, 2006 Pieter Reitsma and colleagues have explored—in a population of patients anticoagulated with coumarin congeners—the connection between the presence of mutant alleles of a single gene and the risk of haemorrhage [ 1]. Using as their denominator the odds for bleeding in a patient without mutant alleles, and using as their numerator the odds for ...

Quantifying and estimating additive measures of interaction from case-control data
, 2017 In this paper we develop a general framework for quantifying how binary risk factors jointly influence a binary outcome. Our key result is an additive expansion of odds ratios as a sum of marginal effects and interaction terms of varying order.

Minor stroke due to large artery occlusion. When is intravenous thrombolysis not enough? Results from the SITS International Stroke Thrombolysis Register [PDF]
, 2017 Purpose: Beyond intravenous thrombolysis, evidence is lacking on acute treatment of minor stroke caused by large artery occlusion. To identify candidates for additional endovascular therapy, we aimed to determine the frequency of non-haemorrhagic ...

Odds Ratio Estimation for Small Count in Zero-Inflated Poisson
IEEE Access, 2020 The odds ratio estimation when observed frequencies are very small usually causes difficulty in calculation. In this paper, we proposed the estimator of odds ratio for small count using Empirical Bayes (EB) in Zero-inflated Poisson distribution, where ...

Estimating and contextualizing the attenuation of odds ratios due to non collapsibility [PDF]
, 2016 The odds ratio is a measure commonly used for expressing the association between an exposure and a binary outcome. A feature of the odds ratio is that its value depends on the choice of the distribution over which the probabilities in the odds ratio are ...

Inpatient Food Insecurity and Pediatric Hematology Oncology Hospitalization Outcomes
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Children with cancer and blood disorders are at risk for food insecurity (FI). We aimed to describe the association of inpatient food insecurity (IFI) and hospitalization outcomes among patients admitted to the pediatric hematology oncology service. Of 325 caregivers screened for IFI, 60 (18.6%) screened positive.

Retrospective-prospective symmetry in the likelihood and Bayesian analysis of case-control studies
, 2013 Prentice & Pyke (1979) established that the maximum likelihood estimate of an odds-ratio in a case-control study is the same as would be found by running a logistic regression: in other words, for this specific target the incorrect prospective model is ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
