> OR accounts for baseline incidence in a way that RR (relative risk) does not.
Would you mind elaborating on this? As a reminder, odds ratio is
((exposure_unhealthy / exposure_healthy) / (control_unhealthy / control_healthy))
Whereas risk ratio is
((exposure_unhealthy / (exposure_unhealthy + exposure_healthy) / (control_unhealthy / (control_unhealthy + control_healthy))
