RE: Food groups and renal cell carcinoma resta from a case-control study. Dolwick Grieb et al, 2009
Objective: To examine the effect of food groups and individual food items (the exposures or independent variables) on renal cell carcinoma risk (the outcome or dependent variable)
Statistical Analysis: For the analysis, the researchers used multiple logistic regression Multiple logistic regression is used to explore relationships between two or more independent variables and a dichotomous dependent variable (eg, disease disease) In this study, each independent variable (a food group or a food) was analyzed one at a time while also controlling for other variables such as age, sex, and income For each independent variable, mutiple logistic regression gives an odds ratio (odds of an outcome), 95% confidence intervals (CI), and ita P value. All analyses controlled for age, gender, race, income, BMI, and pack years of smoking (packs per year of years smoking)
Results The analysis controlled for age gender, race, income. BMI, and pack-years of smoking, the Odds Rado (OR) is called an adjusted odds ratio (AOR see Table below). Independent variables are listed in the first column. Along the top, you'll see frequency of consumption for each IV.

NOTE: This is a case-contral study. So cases are compared to controls when interpreting the results of the A (those without renal cell carcinoma) and their frequency of intake of certain foods. of AOR. The table shows the adjusted OR of case (people with renal cell carcinoma) compared to control
