Yes,it works well.

Thanks for your help.

Hi lm_mengxin,


If that's the case, just use as.factor():

Also, take a look at ?factor and ?glm.

Yes,you are right.


But if I wanna treat "induced" and "spontaneous" as factors, how can I get the 
corresponding OR?

I forgot to mention (sorry for double posting) that str(infert) shows that

This explains why you did not see reference levels in those variables.

Are you sure? That's not what I got:

My impression is that you did something else and you are not telling us the 
full story.  Here is my sessionInfo():

According to the example of logistic.display:
model0 <- glm(case ~ induced + spontaneous, family=binomial, data=infert) 
summary(model0)
 logistic.display(model0)


 induced: 3levels 0,1,2
 spontaneous: 3levels 0,1,2


So if 0 is reference, we should get 2 OR for " induced1"," induced2"," 
spontaneous1"," spontaneous2"


But the acturally OR is as the following,which is not what I expected:


                         crude OR(95%CI)  adj. OR(95%CI)    P(Wald's test) 
P(LR-test)
induced (cont. var.)     1.05 (0.74,1.5)  1.52 (1.02,2.27)  0.042          
0.042                  
spontaneous (cont. var.) 2.9 (1.97,4.26)  3.31 (2.19,5.01)  < 0.001        < 
0.001   




Can anyone give me some suggestions?


Many thanks!











Hi sir:
I follow your suggestion:


result<-glm(y ~ factor(age) + factor(gender) + CD4,family = binomial)
logistic.display(result)


Error in coeff[, 1] : incorrect number of dimensions

Hi there,


Try


require(epicalc)
logistic.display(result)

Hi all:
My data has 3 variables:
age(3levels : <30y=1  30-50y=2, >50y=3)
gender(Male=0, Female=1)
CD4 cell count(raw lab measurement)
y(1:death  0:alive)

I perform logistic regression to find out the factors that influence y.

result<-glm(y ~ factor(age) + factor(gender) + CD4,family = binomial)

Thanks a lot for your help.

My best!
