Hello,

To determine the significance of an association between risk factor and the the chance to develop the disease, the epidemiology uses the RR OR,and the CL (confidence limits). If the p-value is not given, can the significance be determined by looking at the value of CL? Thanks for answer! 

 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Solution:

To determine the significance of an association between the significance of an association between risk factor and the chance to develop the disease the P-value and confidence limits can be used.

If the confidence limits contain the value of zero, then it can be said that there is no significance of an association between risk factor and the chance to develop the disease.
