Case control studyb.Create the appropriate 2X2 table for the study. (2 points)Lung CancerControlsSmokers647622Nonsmokers227Total649649c.Calculate the appropriate measure of association for the study. (4 points)The odds ratio: Cases = 647 / 2 = 323.5The odds ratio: Control = 622 / 27 = 23.03The odds ratio = 23.03 / 323.5 = 14.04 d.Interpret the results. (2 points)Smokers are 14 times more likely to develop lung cancer than non-smokers.
