[Association, differences, and applications of three commonly used statistical indicators: risk ratio, hazard ratio,
Abstract:
Relative Risk (RR), Hazard Ratio (HR), and Odds Ratio (OR) are commonly used statistical measures in the field of public health to assess the magnitude of the effect of exposure factors on outcomes. These indicators have different calculation principles and implications in public health. However, a few researchers misused or misinterpreted RR, HR, and OR values when interpreting study results. Therefore, this article explores the relationships and differences among these measures, as well as the correct selection and application of RR, HR, and OR in both cohort study and case-control study.
