Question 1 - The probability (p) of having Disease X was 0.15. What is the odds of having this disease? [In regard to rounding in your calculation, choose the answer identical or the closest to what you got!]

Question 2 - The odds of having Disease Y was 3. What was the probability (p) of having this disease?

Question 3 - The probabilities of having Disease X were 0.15 and 0.35 in Population A and Population B, respectively. What is the OR of having this disease between Population B and Population A (ORB/A)?

Question 4 - The incidences of Disease Z were 0.001% and 0.032% in Country A and Country B, respectively. What is the relative risk (RR) of having such disease in Country B compared with Country A?

Question 5 - Which of the following statements is right in regard to the relationship between the probability (p) and Odds for an event in a population?

Question 6 - A study was conducted to assess the potential associations between incident hypertension and a group of potential predictors [including Age, Sex, Systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure (DBP), BMI, and Current smoking status]. The data were analyzed using a multiple logistic linear regression model, and the outputs from a computer-based analysis were summarized as following (Table 9-30 in your text book). The significance level was set at 0.05.

Predictor variable         Regression coefficient    Chi square value    p value

Intercept                           18.416                        746.103             0.0001

Age (years)                       0.0533                        95.004               0.0001

Sex*                                 -0.2524                       6.189                0.0129

SBP                                  0.0629                         141.417            0.0001

DBP                                  0.0752                         80.237             0.0001

BMI                                  0.0637                         29.209             0.0001

Current smoker                 0.3270                         10.116             0.0015

*Gender is coded 1 = male and 0 = female. Current smoker is coded 1 = yes and 0 = no. The outcome variable is coded as Y = 1, with hypertension, and Y = 0, without hypertension.

Which statement is right?

The results show that all predictor variables including Age, Sex, SBP, DBP, BMI, and Current smoker are statistically significantly associated with incident hypertension at the significance level of 0.05.

The results show that Sex is not statistically significantly associated with incident hypertension since the p value for Sex was the biggest.

The results show that only Age, SBP, and DBP were statistically significantly associated with incident hypertension since only the Chi square values for these three predictor variables were bigger than 50.

Not enough information to decide which predictor variable is associated with incident hypertension.

Question 7 - A study was conducted to assess the potential associations between incident hypertension and a group of potential predictors [including Age, Sex, Systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure (DBP), BMI, and Current smoking status].

Current smoker              0.3270                           10.116                   0.0015

*Gender is coded 1 = male and 0 = female. Current smoker is coded 1 = yes and 0 = no. The outcome variable is coded as Y = 1, with hypertension, and Y = 0, without hypertension.

Which is the right logistic linear regression equation?

Current smoker                0.3270                       10.116              0.0015
