I seem to regularly get myself into a muddle with epidemiological statistics. In preparation for WBW I need to make sure I get the interpretation right. So....can someone help me here. An odds ratio of 0.46 means that a treatment has halved the likelihood of something happening....is that correct?? Just want some confirmation here!
