Proportion Attending Referral Programs
| Risk Behavior | Referral Program % (n) | Control % (n) | Risk Ratio (95% CI) | Adjusted Relative Risk (95% CI)a |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Note: Percentage of patients with specified risk behavior that attended a referral program and adjusted relative risks for referral program and control groups. Numbers in parentheses are denominators for comparisons (intention to treat). Risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals computed with logistic regression; odds ratios converted to relative risk ratios by method of Zhang and Yu.33 Comparison for “any risk behavior” evaluated with 2-sample test of proportions. For comparisons of “any risk behavior,” control group patients can contribute denominator data for multiple risk behaviors. | ||||
