| Title: | Familial Recurrence Risk |
|---|---|
| Description: | Given vectors of family sizes and number of affecteds per family, calculates the risk of disease recurrence in an unaffected person, conditional on a family having at least k affected members. Methods also model heterogeneity of disease risk across families by fitting a mixture model, allowing for high and low risk families. |

Given vectors of family sizes and number of affecteds per family, calculates the risk of disease recurrence
fam.recrisk(s, a, k)fam.recrisk(s, a, k)
s |
vector of sizes of families |
a |
vector of number of affected members per family; same length as vector s |
k |
number of affecteds to condition on; the ascertainment criterion, e.g., at least k affecteds |
Estimate risk of disease for a person with at least k affected relatives, where k can be specified in order to determine how risk varies with k. Estimates are based on a truncated binomial distribution where families with less than k affected relatives are truncated from the sample. If the sample of families in not a random sample from a population, the prevalence will be biased, and merely represent the frequency of disease in the sample.

The recurrence risk is based on a truncated binomial density, and the prevalence is the frequency of disease in the sample. If the sample of families in not a random sample from a population, the prevalence will be biased, and merely represent the frequency of disease in the sample.

Estimate familial recurrence risk, assuming there is a single identified proband in a family
recrisk.single.ascertain(s, a)recrisk.single.ascertain(s, a)
s |
vector of sizes of families |
a |
vector of number of affected members |
When affected subjects (i.e., probands) attend a clinic independent of their family size and independent of their family history, and if the family history provided by probands is complete (i.e., reporting of family history does not depend on the number of affected members), then we can view the probands and their families as sampled under complete ascertainment. This function estimates the disease recurrence risk when there is a single identified proband per family.
