Analysis of data by STATA 2

Description

This course is part of a training path consisting of three one-week courses that can be followed independently, and presents the principles and use of the Stata software to perform statistical analyzes (logistic regression and survival analysis) on biomedical databases.

Each of the three 5-day full-time courses is organized in a theoretical part, in the morning, supplemented by tutorials, in the afternoon, to work individually on concrete cases with the Stata software.

Session 1: Stata Commands and Univariate Tests

Statistical tests to compare continuous and discrete variables between two or more groups; calculation of the sample size.
