Correcting for ascertainment bias of relative-risk estimates obtained using affected-sib-pair linkage data.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Apr 2000

Cordell H J, Olson J M

Abstract excerpt

Locus-specific sibling relative risk is often estimated using affected-sib-pair lod score analysis of affected sibships and may be used to decide whether to continue or discontinue the search for additional susceptibility genes. We showed that relative-risk estimates obtained using affected-sib-pair data are asymptotically unbiased when each pair is given a weight inversely proportional to the sibship...
