Generalized Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel Test Statistics for Correlated Categorical Data
S Three new test statistics are introduced for correlated categorical data in strati ed R C tables. They are similar in form to the standard generalized Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel statistics but modi ed to handle correlated outcomes. Two of these statistics are asymptotically valid in both many-strata (sparse data) and large-strata limiting models. The third one is designed speci cally for the man...
متن کاملA method of assessing the sensitivity of the Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel test to an unobserved confounder
Observational studies, including the case-control design frequently used in epidemiology, are subject to a number of biases and possible confounding factors. Failure to adjust with them may lead to an erroneous conclusion about the existence of a causal relationship between exposure and disease. The Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test is widely used to measure the strength of the association bet...
متن کاملCochran-Mantel-Haenszel Weighted Miettinen & Nurminen Method for Confidence Intervals of the Difference in Binomial Proportions from Stratified 2x2 Samples
The Miettinen & Nurminen (1985) method is often used for constructing confidence intervals of the difference in binomial proportions from stratified 2x2 samples. However, the weighting strategy proposed in their paper requires an iterative procedure to implement, which is nested within another iterative procedure for finding the confidence limits. This paper examines the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel...

In order to determine the occurrence of endometriosis in patients with uterine myoma and in those with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) compared to controls, 540 infertile patients were fIrst divided into two age groups of 20-29 and 30-39. Then each group was subdivided to patients with 1) uterine myoma, 2) PCOD, and 3) no uterine myoma or PCOD (control subgroup). The occurrence of endomet...
متن کاملAge-related change in contrast sensitivity among Japanese adults.
PURPOSE To evaluate the age-related change in contrast sensitivity seen in a middle-aged to elderly Japanese population. METHODS Contrast sensitivity and visual acuity were measured in subjects aged 40 to 79 years randomly recruited from a community in Aichi prefecture near Nagoya, Japan. Contrast sensitivity tests were performed using the Vistech contrast sensitivity test chart (VCTS 6500). ...
