Cochran-Armitage Trend Test Using SAS

In clinical trials, a dose response study is often conducted to investigate the relationship between increasing dosage and the effect of the drug under study. The Cochran-Armitage trend test is commonly used to study the underlying trend. This paper summarizes various SAS procedures, including PROC FREQ, PROC MULTTEST, and PROC LOGISTIC, which perform the trend test when the response is binary....

RISC Assembly Defects in the Drosophila RNAi Mutant armitage

The putative RNA helicase, Armitage (Armi), is required to repress oskar translation in Drosophila oocytes; armi mutant females are sterile and armi mutations disrupt anteroposterior and dorsoventral patterning. Here, we show that armi is required for RNAi. armi mutant male germ cells fail to silence Stellate, a gene regulated endogenously by RNAi, and lysates from armi mutant ovaries are defec...
