Several statistical measures are commonly used to quantify risk factors:
Relative Risk (RR): This measure compares the risk of a health event among the exposed group to the risk among the unexposed group. Odds Ratio (OR): Often used in case-control studies, it compares the odds of exposure among cases to the odds of exposure among controls. Attributable Risk (AR): This measure indicates the proportion of incidence in the exposed group that is due to the exposure.
