Question: Construct a 95% profile likelihood based confidence interval for the population odds ratio of suffering a germinal matrix hemorrhage for children whose mothers were diagnosed

Construct a 95% profile likelihood based confidence interval for the population odds ratio of suffering a germinal matrix hemorrhage for children whose mothers were diagnosed with toxemia relative to children whose mothers were not. Does this interval contain the value 1? What does this tell you glm(formula = lowbwt_1$grmhem ~ lowbwt_1$tox, family = binomial("logit"), data = lowbwt_1) Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|) (Intercept) -1.5353 0.2946 -5.211 1.88e-07 *** lowbwt_1$tox -1.4604 1.0661 -1.370 0.171 --- Signif. codes: 0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1 (Dispersion parameter for binomial family taken to be 1) Null deviance: 84.542 on 99 degrees of freedom Residual deviance: 81.849 on 98 degrees of freedom AIC: 85.849 Number of Fisher Scoring iterations: 5
