SUMMARY:
(If time increases, ulcer probability ~ 0 decreases 99% OR ulcer probability ~ 1 decreases 1%)
(If status increases, ulcer probability ~ 0 decreases 88% OR ulcer probability ~ 1 decreases 12%)
(If sex = 1, ulcer probability ~ 1 increases 100.7%)
(If age increases, ulcer probability ~ 1 increases 100%)
(If year increases, ulcer probability ~ 0 decreases 100%)
(If thickness increases, ulcer probability ~ 1 increases 105%)
=> All the variables above have approximate impacts on ‘ulcer’.
=> Logistic regression model: ulcer = 16.29 - 0.0000643.time - 0.129.status + 0.0698.sex + 0.000464.age - 0.00797.year + 0.057.thickness
