Multiple Logistic Regression Analysis of Hepatitis B Screening Behavior at 6-Month Follow-up Among Previously Unscreened Participants (n = 446), Study of the Effect of a Liver Cancer Education Program on Hepatitis B Screening Among Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese Americans in the Baltimore–Washington Metropolitan Area, 2009–2010.

Odds ratios, 95% confidence intervals, and P values were obtained from multiple logistic regression models comparing intervention and control groups adjusted for age and clustering within randomized groups for both models.
Calculated by using generalized estimating equation. Model 1 used generalized estimating equation to adjust for the cluster effect and age, and Model 2 further adjusted for ethnicity.
