Comparing smoothing techniques in Cox models for exposure–response relationships
Abstract To allow for non-linear exposure-response relationships, we applied flexible non-parametric smoothing techniques to models of time to lung cancer mortality in two occupational cohorts with skewed exposure distributions. We focused on three different...
Quantifying bias due to allele misclassification in case-control studies of haplotypes
Abstract OBJECTIVES: Genotyping errors can induce biases in frequency estimates for haplotypes of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Here, we considered the impact of SNP allele misclassification on haplotype odds ratio estimates from case-control studies of...
