The 2x2 data from a case-control study on smoking and oral cancer are presented below: Crude data Cases Controls smoke + 233 184 Smoke -- 9 32 1) Calculate the crude odds ratio from the data above. (2 points) 2) Interpret the OR on this finding. (2 points). Researchers thought that alcohol use might have some effect on oral cancer and smoking and thus stratified the data according to alcohol use, which is presented below: Alcohol Users Cases Controls Smoke + 225 166 Smoke -- 6 12 Non- Alcohol Users Cases Controls Smoke + 8 18 Smoke -- 3 20 3) Calculate the strata-specific odds ratio for alcohol users. (2 points) 4) Interpret the OR from q 3. ( 2point) 5) Calculate the strata-specific odds ratio for non-alcohol users. (2 points). 6) Interpret the OR from q5. (2points) 7) Do you think there is evidence for confounding or effect modification? Explain your assessment. (3 points).
