21. in a clinical trial of 2038 subjects treated with a certain drug, 22 reported headaches. In a control group of 1588 subjects given a placebo, 25 reported headaches. Denoting the proportion of headaches in the treatment group by pt and denoting the proportion of headaches in the control (placebo) group by pc, the relative risk is pt/pc. The relative risk is a measure of the strength of the effect of the drug treatment. Another such measure is the odds...
