Simple Haplotype Analyses In R

Transcription

matorhaplo.cph (in process) Weighted Cox regression for censored survival outcomes Will depend on haplo.stats package to impute haplotypes Will call cph(., robust TRUE) from Design package Allow stratification and time-varying exposuresBenjamin French (bcfrench@upenn.edu)Simple haplotype analyses in RuseR! 201112 / 17

Conclusions Non-iterative weighted estimationIIValid tests for genetic associationsReliable estimates of modest genetic effects of common haplotypes Regression-based frameworkIIAdjustment for or interaction with environmental exposuresStratification and time-varying exposures in Cox regression Straightforward to implement in RIIhaplo.ccs for binary outcomeshaplo.cph for censored survival outcomesBenjamin French (bcfrench@upenn.edu)Simple haplotype analyses in RuseR! 201113 / 17
