What Does OR Stand For?
OR stands for Odds Ratio
The Odds Ratio (OR) is a statistical measure used to determine the likelihood of an outcome occurring in one group compared to another. It is commonly used in epidemiology and clinical research to assess the strength of association between exposure and outcomes, with an OR greater than 1 indicating increased odds of the outcome, an OR less than 1 indicating decreased odds, and an OR equal to 1 suggesting no association.
