Adjusted Measures of Association, Mantel-Haenszel Method

The Mantel-Haenszel adjusted measure of association (relative risk or odds ratio) represents the weighted average of strata-specific measures of association. Let aMA^ represent this estimate in general. In specific, we talk about the summary adjusted relative risk aRR^ (cohort studies only) or summary, adjusted odds ratio aOR^ (cohort or case-control studies). It is computed with the TABLES E D C command, and should be used only in the absence of interaction.
