• Logistic Regression– Estimating probability based on logistic model

– Testing differences among multiple groups

– Assumptions for model

Logistic regression equation

Model log odds of outcome as a linear function of one or more variables

Xi = predictors, independent variables

is increase in log odds of 1-unit increase in X

eis relative odds of a 1-unit increase in X

Goal: Estimate for a set of X values

The model is:

exp ( 0 + 1x1 + 2x2)

1 + exp ( 0 + 1x1 + 2x2)

ODDS

1 + ODDS=

Steps in Estimating

• Pick values for x1, x2, …, xp

• Compute log odds for your values of Xs using results– LO = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + … bpxp

• EXP LO to get odds– Odds = EXP (LO)

• Compute estimate of – = ODDS/(ODDS + 1)

The LOGISTIC Procedure

Analysis of Maximum Likelihood Estimates

Standard WaldParameter DF Estimate Error Chi-Square Pr > ChiSq

Intercept 1 -6.0621 1.2884 22.1395 <.0001AGE 1 0.0605 0.0223 7.3310 0.0068women 1 -0.3967 0.3166 1.5701 0.2102

log(odds) = - 6.0621 + 0.0605*age –0.3967*women

What is estimated probability of CVD for a man 60 years old?

Log(odds) = -6.0621 + 0.0605(60) –0.3967(0) = -2.4321

Odds = exp(-2.4321) = 0.0878

Prob = 0.0878 / (1 + 0.0878) = 0.0808

How old does a women have to be to have the same risk?

1-Year of age increases log(odds) by 0.0605

Being female decreases log(odds) by –0.3967

Compute 0.3967/.0605 = 6.6 or women would have to 66.6 years to have P = .0808

PROC LOGISTIC DATA=temp DESCENDING; MODEL clinical = age women/CLODDS=WALD; UNITS age = 5 women = 1;RUN;

Testing Differences Among Multiple Groups Using Logistic Regression

• Ho:

• Ha: i not all equal

• Can test using logistic regression since if ’s are equal then log odds are equal

• Can code in SAS two ways– Create dummy (design) variables to represent the groups

– Use a CLASS statement under PROC LOGISTIC

TOMHS Example: Is CVD Rate EqualIn Four Clinical Centers?

• Ho:

• SAS CODE in datastep (create own design variables):

DATA temp; SET tomhs.bpstudy; clinicA = 0; clinicB = 0; clinicC = 0; clinicD = 0; if clinic = 'A' then clinicA = 1; else if clinic = 'B' then clinicB = 1; else if clinic = 'C' then clinicC = 1; else if clinic = 'D' then clinicD = 1;RUN;

Do Simple Analyses First

PROC MEANS N MEAN SUM MIN MAX DATA=temp; CLASS clinic; VAR clinical;RUN;

Analysis Variable : CLINICAL Indicator - Clinical Endpoint

NCLINIC Obs N Mean Sum Minimum Maximum------------------------------------------------------------------------------A 195 195 0.0974359 19.0000000 0 1.0000000

B 251 251 0.0517928 13.0000000 0 1.0000000

C 296 296 0.0472973 14.0000000 0 1.0000000

D 160 160 0.0312500 5.0000000 0 1.0000000

The relative odds (A/D) should be about 3. All betas should be > 0

PROC LOGISTIC CODE

* Using class statement;PROC LOGISTIC DATA=TEMP DESCENDING SIMPLE; CLASS clinic/PARAM=REF; MODEL clinical = clinic ;RUN;

* Using user defined design variables;PROC LOGISTIC DATA=TEMP DESCENDING SIMPLE; MODEL clinical = clinica clinicb clinicc;RUN;

Assumptions: Linear Versus Logistic Regression

• Y normally distributed

• y linearly related to X

• constant over X

• Each observation independent of other observations

• Large N not needed for tests if Y is normally distributed

• Y binary

• Log odds linearly related to X

• N/A

• Each observation independent of other observations

• Large enough N to justify using 2

Illustration of Linearity in Log Odds Assumption

Log odds = -6.2428 + 0.0613* Age

AGE ODDS

50 0.039

60 0.072

70 0.134

RO = 1.85 = .072/.039

RO = 1.85 = .134/.072

Increased relative odds from going from 50 to 60 year is same as going from 60 to 70 years

Note: Absolute risk is not linear with age
