When adjusted values are needed, more predictors can be added to the right side of the regression equation above, along with corresponding regression coefficients (). In this case, the odds ratio value for X would be adjusted for the other predictors in the model. The equation above, 100 (odds ratio1), would then be interpreted as the percent change in the odds corresponding to a 1-unit increase in X while holding all other predictors fixed. The selection of appropriate predictors to reduce confounding and to improve the precision of estimates is done similarly for logistic regression and for linear regression; guidelines can be found in many statistical textbooks. 1, 2, 12Unlike linear regression, there is no formula for the estimates of for logistic regression. Finding the best estimates requires repeatedly improving approximate estimates until stability is reached. This is done easily on a computer, and there are many statistical software packages that perform logistic regression, but it makes logistic regression less understandable and more of a “black box” approach for many researchers.
