  1. April 11 • Logistic Regression • Modeling interactions • Analysis of case-control studies • Data presentation

  2. Subgroup AnalysesJournal Tables Treatment A Treatment B OR Overall 100 150 0.67 Men 40 90 x.xx Women 60 60 x.xx Age <50 25 30 x.xx Age 51-60 35 50 x.xx Age 60 + 40 70 x.xx SBP < 160 40 70 x.xx SBP ≥ 160 60 80 x.xx Is there any evidence that the effect of treatment differs among subgroups

  3. TOMHS Example • Question: Does the effect of active BP treatment on CVD differ for young versus older persons? • Looking at an interaction effect (effect modification) • Compare • Odds CVD (treatment/placebo) in younger patients • Odds CVD (treatment/placebo) in older patients

  4. Logistic regression equation Model log odds of outcome as a linear function of one or more variables Xi = predictors, independent variables b is increase in log odds of 1-unit increase in X ebis relative odds of a 1-unit increase in X The model is:

  5. Logistic Model For Interaction X1 = 1 for active treatment and 0 for placebo X2 = 1 for age ≥ 55 and 0 for age < 55 X3 = X1 * X2

  6. Log Odds (placebo, young) = b0 Log Odds (active, young) = b0 + b1 Log Odds (placebo, old) = b0 + b2 Log Odds (active, old) = b0 + b1 + b2 + b3 Dif = b1; exp(b1) is odds (A v P) for young Dif = b1 + b3; exp(b1 + b3 ) is odds (A v P) for old Logistic Model For Interaction X1 = 1 for active treatment and 0 for placebo X2 = 1 for age ≥ 55 and 0 for age < 55 X3 = X1 * X2

  7. Log Odds (placebo, young) = b0 Log Odds (active, young) = b0 + b1 Log Odds (placebo, old) = b0 + b2 Log Odds (active, old) = b0 + b1 + b2 + b3 exp(b1) is odds (A v P) for young exp(b1 + b3 ) is odds (A v P) for old Odds (A v P) for Old exp(b1 + b3) exp (b3) = Odds (A v P) for Young exp (b1) What does b3 Mean? = A ratio of ratios!!

  8. Interaction Hypothesis Ho: b3 = 0 Ha: b3≠ 0 Test in SAS just like any other coefficient

  17. Description of Findings Patients in the active group were at 36% lower risk of CVD compared to the placebo group (OR: 0.64; 95% CI:0.42-0.98). Analyses by age showed that the benefit for active treatment was greatest in younger patients. In patients < age 55 the CVD risk was 58% lower in the active treatment (OR: 0.42) where for patients over 55 years of age the CVD risk was only 10% lower (OR:.90). The test for interaction between treatment and age approached significance (p=.07).

  18. Logistic Regression forCase Control Studies • Same analyses as prospective study • Outcome: • Y = 1 is a case • Y = 0 is a control • Model log (odds) of being a case • Odds ratios have same meaning • Estimating probability of being a case not appropriate

  19. Example Colon Polyp Study • Cases (N=574) • Patients diagnosed with colorectal polyps from colonoscopy • Controls (N=707) • Patients clear of colorectal polyps from colonoscopy • Risk Factors Under Study • FH of colon cancer • Smoking and alcohol • Reproductive history factors • Obesity and adiposity (weight to hip measures)

  20. Example Colon Polyp Study • Variables • CC Status (1=case, 2=control) • Age (years) • FH colon cancer (1=Y, 0=N) • Current Smoking (1=Y, 0=N) • Gender (1=Men, 0 = Women) • Waist to Hip Ratio • Variables Names • CC, AGE, FHCC, SMOKERS, MEN, and WHIP

  25. Some Practical Aspects for Analyses • Divide continuous variable of interest into 3-5 categories and compute relative odds for increasing categories. • Summarize results using beta coefficient using factor as continuous variable.

  26. Example Omega-3 Intake and CHD

  27. Advantages • Can determine if risk increases linearly with increasing levels of factor • No assumptions of pattern of risk when using categories • Can determine if there is a threshold effect • Eliminates possible effect of outliers.

  28. Analysis • Create indicator variables for quintiles of omega-3 and run logistic regression • Run regression using omega-3 as continuous variable

  29. In Class Exercise • Investigate whether the odds of CVD increases linearly with age • Divide age into 4-categories • < 50; 50-54; 55-59; 60+ • Two CVD endpoints: • Clinical – major CVD • Second – major + minor CVD • Compute percent with CVD with each age category • Run logistic regression with 3 indicator variables using < 50 as reference group • Run logistic regression using age as continuous variable
