relative.risk {BCRA} | R Documentation |
A function to estimate relative risks for risk factor combinations
relative.risk(data, Raw_Ind=1)
data |
A data set containing all the required input data needed to perform risk projections,
such as initial age, projection age, BrCa relative risk covariates and race. See |
Raw_Ind |
The raw file indicator with default value 1.
|
The age is dichotomized as "age less than 50 years" and "age 50 years or more".
The relative risks can be obtained from Gail Model, an unconditional logistic regression that included main effects
NB_Cat
, AM_Cat
, AF_Cat
, NR_Cat
as well as interactions between AF_Cat
and
NR_Cat
and between the age category and NR_Cat
.
RR_Star1 |
Relative risk for woman of interest at ages < 50. |
RR_Star2 |
Relative risk for woman of interest at ages >= 50. |
