odds ratio (or)
How is the Odds Ratio Calculated?
The OR is calculated using a 2x2 contingency table that looks at the frequency of exposure and outcome. The table is structured as follows:
Outcome Present
Outcome Absent
Exposure Present
a
b
Exposure Absent
c
d
The formula for OR is:
OR = (a/c) / (b/d) = (a*d) / (b*c)
