Write answer in between .Q:A popular news outlet recently published an article that discussed the size of low-density lipoprotein LDL cholesterol particles: type A and type B. Type B is thought to be more harmful to arterial walls. A group of researchers wants to determine whether patients who have an elevated level of type B LDL cholesterol are more likely to develop cardiovascular events. A study is designed with 3418 adult participants. Initial levels of type B LDL are obtained and participants are separated into normal and elevated levels of type B LDL. Socio-demographics including age, gender, education level, and smoking status are also recorded. The primary outcome is incidence of cardiovascular events over 10 years. Secondary outcomes include all-cause death, death by cardiovascular events, stroke, and hospitalizations. For this study, which of the following analyses would be the most appropriate measure to determine the association between type B LDL and cardiovascular events?? A: Analysis of covariance, B: Fishers exact test, C: Likelihood ratios, D: Odds ratio, E: Relative risk,  <response>: This is a cohort study looking at the association between elevated levels of type B LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular events. The study has a dichotomous exposure variable normal vs elevated type B LDL and time-to-event outcome variables cardiovascular events and other secondary outcomes over 10 years. To determine the association between type B LDL levels and cardiovascular events in this cohort study, the most appropriate statistical analysis would be relative risk. Relative risk compares the risk of developing the outcome in the exposed group versus the unexposed group. The other answer choices are not appropriate for this study design and research question. Analysis of covariance examines the relationship between a continuous outcome and categorical predictor while adjusting for covariates. Fishers exact test examines associations between categorical variables. Likelihood ratios are used to assess the performance of diagnostic tests. Odds ratios are used in case-control studies to estimate the association between an exposure and outcome.E: Relative risk
