Calculation method

Calculation method

Risk estimate

RR=(a/(a+b))/(c/(c+d)); standard large-sample log-Wald interval.

95% interval lower

RR=(a/(a+b))/(c/(c+d)); standard large-sample log-Wald interval.

95% interval upper

RR=(a/(a+b))/(c/(c+d)); standard large-sample log-Wald interval.

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Large-sample descriptive interval; positive cells required, no automatic continuity correction. Supported limits: All required fields must be finite values of the exact declared type and within displayed bounds. Lists contain1–1000 finite numbers. JSON tables are numeric rectangular rows, at most100 rows and30 columns; individual tools have stricter shape/domain constraints. Large-sample descriptive interval; positive cells required, no automatic continuity correction.
