A program for point and interval calculation of odds ratios and attributable risks from unmatched case-control data
Abstract:
An epidemiological investigation may be designed to collect data and analyse associations between many risk factors and/or many disease groups. A FORTRAN program has been developed to calculate point and interval estimates of odds ratios and attributable risks from stratified, unmatched case-control data for any number of disease/risk-factor combinations. For each disease/risk-factor association, this program can be used to estimate odds ratios by level of exposure and by latency. All output is time- and date-stamped with labels and titles to increase readability and provide useful documentation of study results. All data management is performed using the SPSS package, giving the program a great deal of flexibility, at the same time making it easy to implement and to use. The program has been installed on several mainframes.
