How does the Odds Ratio Calculator work?

OR = (a×d) / (b×c) Then: a=exposed cases, b=exposed controls, c=unexposed cases, d=unexposed controls Then: 95% CI: e^(ln(OR) ± 1.96×SE) Then: SE = √(1/a + 1/b + 1/c + 1/d).

Can you give an example of how to use the Odds Ratio Calculator?

Example: Input a=100, b=50, c=200, d=300 gives a result of OR = (100×300)/(50×200) = 3.0.

OR = 1: no association | OR >1: positive association | OR <1: negative association

The odds ratio (OR) measures the association between an exposure and an outcome in case-control studies. An OR > 1 indicates increased risk; OR < 1 indicates reduced risk; OR = 1 indicates no association.
