Median ORs using different approaches for frequency-matched case-control studies with respect to secondary phenotype, using different prevalence values of primary disease and secondary phenotype, based on 1,000 replicates, each with 1,000 cases and 1,000 frequency-matched controls with respect to secondary phenotype.
