st: Confounding using chest

Hello,
I have been trying to use the chest command to check confounding in a binary logistic regression. I am building the logistic regression using the purposeful selection. I am not quite sure how chest is checking confounding or how the betas in the output table is calculated as well as how this program handles dummies, as I get as single coefficient and percentage change in beta for dummy variables.
Can someone who is familiar with this command explain it to me
Thanks
Sincerely
Jennifer Calder
