Cytel's LogXact 5 vs. SAS's PROC LOGISTIC:
Antibiotics and Diarrhea in Hospitalized Patients
(Source: From data gathered at the Cornell Medical Center by Jaffe and Chang, 1993.)
Data on 2493 hospitalized patients were gathered to determine the relationship between antibiotic use and an acute form of diarrhea -- clostridium dificile-induced diarrhea (DIARRHED).
(2493 observations, 10 covariates.)
The results are presented below. Note that SAS fails to fit the logistic regression model -- only LogXact 5 can do it.
