Projection-Method Mantel-Haenszel Estimator for K 2 × J Tables
用于 K 个 2×J 列联表的投影法 Mantel–Haenszel 估计量
A projection method is introduced to generalize the Mantel-Haenszel estimator for estimating the common odds ratios in K 2 × J (J > 2) tables. The method provides estimators in an explicit form and needs no iterative computation. It is shown that the generalized Mantel-Haenszel estimator proposed by Greenland, and Yanagawa and Fujii is obtained by this method as a special case. Furthermore, selecting appropriate weight, it is shown that the method leads to an estimator that…
