Key Concepts

Stratified Analysis

Stratified analysis involves performing separate analyses across different groups or strata—in this case, different active hormones—to assess relationships specific to each subgroup. This approach accounts for potential heterogeneity in the relationship between the predictor and outcome across distinct categories.

Predictor Variables

Predictor variables, sometimes called independent variables or covariates, are the factors that are believed to influence the outcome. In logistic regression analyses, these can include continuous variables (like dose levels) or categorical variables, and their effects on the probability of the outcome are quantified.

Logistic Regression

Logistic regression is a statistical modeling technique used to model the relationship between a binary outcome (such as the presence or absence of an event) and one or more predictor variables. It estimates the probability that an event will occur using a logistic function, allowing for the interpretation of coefficients in terms of odds ratios.

Binary Outcome Variable

A binary outcome variable represents two possible states (such as success/failure or yes/no). In logistic regression, this binary variable is the response that the model aims to predict and explain in relation to continuous or categorical predictor variables.
