متن کاملthe genetics of age-related macular degeneration
age-related macular degeneration (amd) is the leading cause of blindness in old subjects. it is a multifactorial disease with both environmental and genetic factors playing some role in its pathogenesis. similar to many other genetic diseases, the inheritance pattern of amd does not fit into simple mendelian rules. these diseases are caused by the presence of multiple genetic factors and are ca...
متن کاملMisclassification in Logistic Regression with Discrete Covariates
We study the effect of misclassification of a binary covariate on the parameters of a logistic regression model. In particular we consider 2 2 2 tables. We assume that a binary covariate is subject to misclassification that may depend on the observed outcome. This type of misclassification is known as (outcome dependent) differential misclassification. We examine the resulting asymptotic bias o...
