Ratio of observed risks

—

Association no prove cause. If reference proportion zero, the ratio no get defined value.

Formula

Use RR = (a/n)/(b/m) and D = a/n−b/m. a and b na event counts for groups A and B; n and m na their totals. D na probability difference, wey result show for percentage points.

Compare observed shares of events between groups.

We check inputs for missing values and allowed ranges. Result wey pass the finite numeric range no go show. Rounding affect wetin display, while calculation use the model numeric precision.

Check your units and assumptions before you rely on result. Changing label no convert currency or physical unit.
