Display Odds Ratio Plot in Descending Order

fastandcurious — Fri, 28 Jul 2023 17:07:25 GMT

Hello!

I wanted to display my Odds Ratio estimates/ Wale Confidence Limits in descending order. Currently my plots look scattered like this with the following code:

proc logistic data=libraryname.test plots=(oddsratio) ;
class race (ref="1") /param=ref;
model outcomevar (event="Yes") =race;
run;

I want the plots to display in order like this:

I am not sure if it's possible but if it is, what statement I should use and where? I thought there would be something for the model or plot statements but nothing I've tried has worked.

Apply a format to your RACE levels so that they are in the desired order when sorted.

Thank you! I will have to keep this in mind as an option. I ended up using the following solution and it worked for what I needed 🙂

Thank you for helping out 🙂

proc logistic data=libraryname.test plots=ODDSRATIO(ORDER=DESCENDING) ;

Mark your solution as the solution, so that curious users can see it marked as solved.

Editted note: I think you just eliminated half the value of my comment. Yes, your topic is marked as solved, but I expected you to indicate it was your own reported use of ODDSRATIO(ORDER=DESCENDING) as the solution, rather than this comment.

Sorry about that, I was having technical issues because I opened this up through my phone. Should be fixed now 🙂
