Methods of analysis that overlooked this feature of intraclass correlation may lead to an invalid inference. Taking this issue into consideration, we developed a series of likelihood-based test statistics for proportion-related effect measures on stratified correlated binary data with bilateral outcomes, including (1) three homogeneity test statistics for proportion ratios across strata based on Likelihood ratio test, Score test, and Wald-type test, (2) four confidence interval estimators (unconstrained and semi-constrained MLE-based weighted Wald-type confidence interval, profile likelihood confidence interval, and constrained MLE-based Score confidence interval) for proportion ratios, and (3) three test statistics testing the homogeneity of odds ratios. Two types of Monte Carlo simulation studies were designed and conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed testing methods and confidence interval estimators.
