Longitudinal data from twin pairs may be used to determine how the genetic effects influencing a quantitative trait change with age. Here a model for mixed longitudinal data of Huggins and Loesch [1998] on unrelated individuals is extended to twin studies. The model is fitted using robust statistica

Dispersion models provide a #exible class of non-normal distributions with many potential applications in biostatistics, accommodating a wide range of continuous, discrete and mixed data. Starting with Liang and Zeger's generalized estimating equation method, we review some recent applications of di
Longitudinal data is often collected in clinical trials to examine the e!ect of treatment on the disease process over time. This paper reviews and summarizes much of the methodological research on longitudinal data analysis from the perspective of clinical trials. We discuss methodology for analysin
The generalized estimation equation (GEE) method, one of the generalized linear models for longitudinal data, has been used widely in medical research. However, the related sensitivity analysis problem has not been explored intensively. One of the possible reasons for this was due to the correlated
This paper describes robust procedures for estimating parameters of a mixed e!ects linear model as applied to longitudinal data. In addition to "xed regression parameters, the model incorporates random subject e!ects to accommodate between-subjects variability and autocorrelation for within-subject
