Dear allstatters,
How can one interprete a case, when relative risk
(hazard ratio) estimate of a continuous explanatory
variable in a multivariate Cox PH model being
approximately equal to 1 i.e 0.9999 or 1.0001 etc
given that the p-value shows significance i.e < 0.05.
Also, the relative risk estimate for this variable is
approximately equal to the lower limit for its 95% CI
for relative risk.
Thanks.
Ndema.
