We propose a simple and robust algorithm for exact inference in 2 x 2 contingency tables. It is based on recursive relations allowing efficient computation of odds-ratio estimates, confidence limits and p-values for Fisher's test. A factor of 3 10 is gained in terms of computer time compared with th

This paper presents the results of a Monte Carlo study comparing the performance, in terms of size and power, of six exact and six asymptotic tests for the homogeneity of odds ratios in several 2 x 2 contingency tables. With a small sample size or sparse data structure, the exact tests performed bet
Given several 2 × 2 contingency tables, the ÿrst step in epidemiologic research is to test for homogeneity of odds ratios across these tables. A second problem of equal interest, but often overlooked, is to evaluate the power of detection of interaction if it is present. We address the latter issue
