Pathological feature contributing to estimation of probability of recurrence | β | SE β | χ2 |
---|---|---|---|
Regression coefficients from binary logistic modelling; β is the regression coefficient, SE β is the standard error of β, χ2 values are from a log likelihood ratio test for comparing two regression equations. Comparing the full model (with all four variables) with a reduced model with margin omitted gives a χ2 value of 4.284, which is significant at p=0.05 (χ2(0.05)=3.841). | |||
