Risk is often quantified using measures such as relative risk (RR) and odds ratio (OR). These measures compare the likelihood of disease in those exposed to a risk factor versus those not exposed. For example:
Relative Risk (RR): The ratio of the probability of the event occurring in the exposed group versus the non-exposed group. Odds Ratio (OR): The odds of the event occurring in the exposed group divided by the odds in the non-exposed group.
