Logistic regression has been recognized as a commonly used method in epidemiological studies. However, in practice, many people only consider 'data' rather than 'study design' as important issue when working on the analysis, which may easily lead to some misleading results and conclusions. Based on the purpose of observational research during the design of the study, this paper discusses the specific ideas in logistic regression analysis, and provides references for the practical application when logistic regression method is used.
