Relative Risk (RR), Odds Ratio (OR) and Hazard Ratio (HR).
Odds ratio (OR) is a statistic commonly encountered in professional or scientific medical literature. Most readers perceive it as relative risk (RR), although most of them do not know why that would be true. But since such perception is mostly correct, there is nothing (or almost nothing) wrong with that. It is nevertheless useful to be reminded now and then what is the relation between the relative risk and the odds ratio, and (...)

Transfert de PCB du sédiment au biote dans le Rhône : développement d’un modèle trophique de bioaccumulation dans une perspective de gestion
Courant 2005, le constat de contamination des poissons du Rhône par les PCB près de Lyon a entraîné une série d’investigations conduisant à l’interdiction de consommation sur un
secteur allant de l’amont de Lyon jusqu’à la mer Méditerranée. Alors qu’un lien a pu être mis
en évidence entre la contamination des poissons et celle des sédiments, un projet de recherche
a (...)

Genome-scale transcriptional activity of Bacillus subtilis cells under various life styles.
Microorganisms rely largely on changes of the transcriptional activity
to adapt to the variations of the environment. However, it has not be
possible until recently to obtain a knowledge of the transcriptional
activity that could compare with the completeness of the genome
sequences. Ideally the data should be unbiased with respect to the set
of conditions, as well as with respect to the (...)
