I'm trying to convey some findings in which a score from 1-10 seems to predict disease status (binary).
I predict yhat and plot yhat with a quadratic fit against my predictor (score).
It looks accurate but when I add a confidence interval to the quadratic fit, it's VERY narrow. Too narrow for me to believe it.
Does a predicted plot deflate the confidence interval of the original data? If so, does anyone have a suggestion on how I convey my data in a similar format (i.e. for every increase in score, percentage of success increases by y) with a confidence interval?
First plot:
This plot is obtained by entering twoway qfitci effect score
where effect is a binary variable denoting whether or not the patient had the desired effect, 1 being effect, and score being a nominal/continuous variable where 1 is the lowest and 10 is the highest score, with the hypothesis that a higher score increases probability of effect. qfitci
is a quadratic fitting plot with CI in gray.

2nd plot:
This plot is obtained by running a logistic regression model: logistic effect score age gender
in stata. This command returns OR's as opposed to the logit
command which returns coefficients in e. This model is then predicted using predict yhat
in stata which creates a new variable yhat
with the predicted probabilities of the model.
