compare the outcome of logistic regression (predictive probabilities) before and after an event
To train a glm model, I'm using using clinical data (~10 features) of a large cohort of patients and healthy subjects. I'm using a smaller test group (around 20 people) and predict their outcome (...

Prediction using a logistic regression model
Given a logistic regression model:
$y \in \{0, 1\}$
$ P(y=1|x;\theta) = h_{\theta}(x) = \frac{1}{1+\exp(-\theta^T x)}$
And given the value $\theta^*$ which maximises the conditional likelihood $P(y|X; ...
