Adjusting odds ratio for continuous variable

Jimbo — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 11:29:26 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to look at the ability different binary variables it predict an outcome.

My variables are labelled n_1 to n_8 with n_1 being the lowest risk / referent category.

Using proc logistic, I can look at odds ratios for the different variables:

proc logistic data = nodes;

class n_1 (ref='1') / param = ref;

model outcome_2 (event = '1') = n_2 n_3 n_4 n_5 n_6 n_7 n_8 ;

run;

However what I would like to do is also calculate to odds ratios adjusted for a baseline continuous variable (age in this case).

Whilst it's probably that I'm not looking in the right place, I can't find any documentation describing this.

Many thanks for any advice,

Jim

Please ignore - I just need to incorporate the variable within the model.

Bit new to this and guilty of overthinking!
