What does RR>1 (or 100%) indicate?

Greater risk in treatment group
No difference in risk
Lower risk in treatment group
Lower risk in control group

The correct answer is: Greater risk in treatment group

When RR>1, this indicates that the risk in the treatment group is greater than the risk in the control group, meaning that the treatment group is experiencing a higher number of negative outcomes compared to the control group. This means that the treatment may not be effective or could potentially have harmful side effects. Option B is incorrect because it states that there is no difference in risk, which is not true when RR>1. Option C is incorrect because it states that there is a lower risk in the treatment group, which is the opposite of what is indicated by RR>1. Option D is incorrect because it states that there is a lower risk in the control group, but this is also not true when RR>1.
