OR: OR(odd ratio) for risk_allele

In MCPerm: A Monte Carlo permutation method for multiple test correlation

Description

OR(odd ratio) for risk_allele.

Usage

OR(case_allele1, case_allele2, control_allele1, control_allele2)

Arguments

case_allele1	a non-negative integer, the frequency of allele1 in case samples.
case_allele2	a non-negative integer, the frequency of allele2 in case samples.
control_allele1	a non-negative integer, the frequency of allele1 in control samples.
control_allele2	a non-negative integer, the frequency of allele2 in control samples.

Details

The odds ratio is a measure of effect size, describing the strength of association or non-independence between two binary data values.

Value

risk_allele	risk_allele(OR>1).
OR	the value of OR.
CI	a matrix with one row, the 0.95 CI(Confidence Interval) of OR: lower limit OR, upper limit OR.
