Table 1.

The empirical coverage levels of 95% CIs for the OR obtained based on (i) the MH method with 0.5 imputation (MH-0.5) and (ii) Peto's procedure with event rates ranging from extremely low to moderately low. The results are based on 1000 simulated data sets consisting of 48 2 × 2 tables with the observed sample sizes listed
