Questions and Answers

What is the conclusion regarding the presence of multiplicative effect modification based on visual inspection of the stratum-specific estimates of the relative risk?

  • The presence of multiplicative effect modification is not relevant in this context.
  • There is no evidence of multiplicative effect modification as the relative risks are consistent across strata.
  • The conclusion cannot be determined based on the given data.
  • There is evidence of multiplicative effect modification as the relative risks vary across strata. (correct)
  • How can you confirm the conclusion regarding multiplicative effect modification?

  • By calculating the odds ratio for each stratum.
  • By comparing the total number of LBW and NBW infants.
  • By conducting a separate randomized trial for each stratum.
  • By calculating the Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the relative risk. (correct)
  • Is there effect modification on the additive scale?

  • Yes, there is evidence of effect modification on the additive scale. (correct)
  • No, there is no evidence of effect modification on the additive scale.
  • Effect modification is not relevant in assessing respiratory disease risk.
  • The data provided is insufficient to determine effect modification on the additive scale.
  • If there is effect modification on the additive scale, is it synergistic or antagonistic?
