Type of Tool SAS Macro
Title Logistc Regression
Programmer/Email PeterBacchetti
Contributing Site UCSF
Description This is a macro for performing logistic regression with a binary outcome, checking model assumptions, and producing output that is arranged in a way suitable for use in publications. Some features that add convenience include automatically creating quartile categories for specified predictors, rescaling numeric predictors to make odds ratios more interpretable, and showing counts for categorical predictors.

Macro Parameters Parameters for Logistic Macro:
DSName = name of SAS data set
Outcome = name of outcome variable. This variable is assumed to be coded 0, 1 and the model predicts the
probability of a 1 outcome.
Predictors = list of predictor variables. This list should include class variables and variables to be 'quartiled.'
Interaction variables may be included in which case the predictor list should be quoted, e.g.
Predictors = %quote(Age Gender Age*Gender). Note: all variables appearing in interaction terms
should also appear as main effects.
Classvar = classification variables with reference level. Use %quote function. For example,
Classvar=%quote(Gender(ref='Male')Race(ref='Asian')) Gender and Race could be numeric variables with
formatted values of Male or Asian or they could be alphanumeric variables with string values of 'Male'
and 'Asian'. Do not include variables for which quartiles are to be generated.
Quartiles = list of numeric variables which should be entered into the model as class variables with four quartile
levels. Variables in this list will not be included in the model as linear predictors.
Quad = Y/N for creating and testing quadratic terms (default = Y)
Out = name of output SAS data set containing logistic estimates, p-values, etc.
Print = Y/N (default = N)
Include = F,P,FP,or N
F = frequencies of outcome variable are displayed for each class variable value, e.g., Sex Female 31/100
P = percentages are displayed with class variable values, e.g., Sex Female 31.0%
FP = frequencies and percentages are displayed with class variable values, e.g., Sex Female 31/100 (31.0%).
N = no frequencies or percentages are displayed with class variable values (default = FP)
Obs = Y/N If Y, then the number of observations in each outcome group and the total are displayed. (default = Y)
LL = Y/N If Y, then -2log(likelihood) is displayed. (default = N)
HL = Y/N If Y, then the Hosmer-Lemeshow p-value is displayed along with the number of groups of estimates
(default = N).

Special Features Attached Ordinary printing macro
Special Features Text Special Features of Logistic macro:
The macro will automatically test a quadratic term for numeric (non-class) predictors with more than two values.
The macro will automatically output odds ratios that have been rescaled until the units > 1/10 of the IQR.
