Abstract: Multivariate logistic regression is a statistical method commonly used in several fields to build predictive models. A nomogram is a tool that provides graphical depictions of all variables in the model and enables the user to easily compute output probabilities. Our objective was to build a flexible and easy-to-use nomogram generator in Stata. The script works after arbitrary logit or logistic commands. Copyright 2015 by StataCorp LP.
