 Applied Statistics
Statistics for weighing benefits and harms in a proposed genetic
substudy of a randomized cancer prevention trial, by S. G. Baker
and B. S. Kramer
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society,
Series C, Applied Statistics, Volume
54 (2005) part 5, 941 - 954
The software involves three packages written in Mathematica 5.1:
gene.m, genec.m, and genei.m. The package gene.m calls the other
packages
and contains functions for making the plots. The file genec.m
includes functions for computing the age-specific absolute risk difference
and the file genei.m contains functions for computing the net benefit
index.
To reproduce the plots in the paper, load the packages and type gene[par]
The software is tailored to the design described in the paper. Users
wishing
to modify the software for their own application require familiarity
with Mathematica. For questions, please contact
