� RRR = {(CER – EER) / CER}RRR = (5.7% – 4.3%) / 5.7% = 25%

����Statin therapy decreased the risk of stroke by 25% relative to those who receive placebo

Zain-Hamid, R; CRP-’KBK’, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara.

2. 1. Elements of magnitude of the treatment effect

The situation in which the experimentaltreatment increase the risk of a good event as the ‘Relative Benefit Increase (RBI)’ or the risk of bad event as ‘Relative Risk Increase(RRI)‘Relative Risk Increase(RRI)

����also can use the same formula ����(RRR):

����RRR = RBI = RRI = {(CER – EER) / CER}RRR = RBI = RRI =(5.7% – 4.3%) / 5.7% = 25%

Zain-Hamid, R; CRP-’KBK’, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara.

� Relative Risk Reduction (RRR) :is the percent reduction in risk in treated group compared to the control group

2. 1. Elements of magnitude of the treatment effect

� The RRR is measure of how the treatment studied has reduced the frequency of an adverse event

� Absolute Risk reduction (ARR):is the difference in risk between the control group and the treatment group

Zain-Hamid, R; CRP-’KBK’, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara.

2. 1. Elements of magnitude of the treatment effect

The situation in which the experimentaltreatment increase the risk of a good event as the ‘Absolute Benefit Increase (ABI)’ or the risk of bad event as ‘Absolute Risk Increase(ARI)‘Absolute Risk Increase(ARI)

����also can use the same formula ����(ARR):

����ARR = ABI = ARI = (CER – EER) ARR = ABI = ARI =(5.7% – 4.3%) = 1.4%

Zain-Hamid, R; CRP-’KBK’, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara.

Significance of Relative Risk Reduction

���� Negative RRR (- 38%): treatment may do harm:

patients given the new treatment might be

38% more likely to die than the control patients

���� RRR of 0%: no treatment effect or benefit

���� Positive RRR (50%): patients receiving the new

treatment might have less than 1/2 risk of dying

compared to not treated

Zain-Hamid, R; CRP-’KBK’, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatera Utara.

The greater the relative risk reduction the more effective the therapy

(>>> RRR���������������� efficacy of therapy)

2.1. Element of magnitude of the treatment effect

RRR = {(CER – EER) / CER}

CER : Control Event Rate (without treatment/placebo)

EER : Experimental Event Rate (with treatment)

2. 1. Elements of magnitude of the treatment effect

* NNT = 1 / 1.4% = 72

����we need to treat 72 people with a statin

(rather than placebo) for 5 years to prevent one additional person

from suffering a stroke
