What statistical property make odds ratios the ideal measurement for case control studies?

Odd ratio's insensitivity to variance makes it ideal for case control study measurements.

What are odds ratios?

An indicator of how closely an incident is linked to exposure is the odds ratio (OR). The odds ratio compares two sets of probabilities: the likelihood that an event will occur in a group that has been exposed vs the likelihood that it will not. Odds ratios are frequently employed in case-control study reporting. The odds ratio aids in determining how likely it is for an exposure to cause a particular occurrence. The likelihood that the event will occur with exposure increases with the size of the odds ratio. Probability ratios below one indicates a lower probability of the event occurring given the exposure.

Odd ratio's insensitivity to variance makes it ideal for case control study measurements. It means that it doesn't get affected if variance is increased or decreased.

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Hi there, the answer is energy

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide, oxygen, and water are all products of cellular respiration in fact carbon dioxide and oxygen are extremely important for ATP. If you are talking about aerobic respiration oxygen is the main product for it because it reacts to glucose. The only thing that isnt part of the product of cellular respiration is energy. After ATP is created for the plants it makes its own energy afterward.

Hope this helped :)

Sound would travel faster in a thick piece of metal since the molecules are closer together. However, since there are more molecules, it would be quieter on the other side than the hollow metal.
