Earlier this summer, there were a number of postings
on how to get relative risks from Stata regression
routines. A recent article gives an excellent
overview and comparison of many of the techniques
and includes Stata code for their own suggestion:
Localio, AR, et al. (2007), "Relative risks and
confidence intervals were easily computed indirectly
from multivariable logistic regression," _Journal of
Clinical Epidemiology_, 60: 874-882
In addition to the Stata code shown in the two
appendices, more code is available at their web
site (shown on 878); I, however, was not able
to connect to the web site given in the article;
a little searching, however, found the programs
at the following:
