Abstract
Logistic regression analysis is a statistical technique to evaluate the relationship between various predictor variables (either categorical or continuous) and an outcome which is binary (dichotomous). In this article, we discuss logistic regression analysis and the limitations of this technique.

Risk Factors for Hospitalization and Mortality due to COVID-19 in Espírito Santo State, Brazil

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that older age, male gender, Asian, indigenous or unknown race, comorbidities (smoking, kidney disease, obesity, pulmonary disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease), as well as fever and shortness of breath increased the risk of hospitalization and death outcome in hospitalized patients.

A simulation study of the number of events per variable in logistic regression analysis.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that low EPV can lead to major problems, and the regression coefficients were biased in both positive and negative directions, and paradoxical associations (significance in the wrong direction) were increased.

Relaxing the Rule of Ten Events per Variable in Logistic and Cox Regression

TL;DR: A large simulation study of other influences on confidence interval coverage, type I error, relative bias, and other model performance measures found a range of circumstances in which coverage and bias were within acceptable levels despite less than 10 EPV.

Development and validation of a prediction model for gestational hypertension in a Ghanaian cohort.

TL;DR: The prediction model showed adequate performance after validation in an independent cohort and can be used to classify women into high, moderate or low risk of developing GH, contributing to efforts to provide clinical decision-making support to improve maternal health and birth outcomes.
