Confidence intervals for relative risk parameters estimated using affected-sib-pair data are derived and evaluated for two markers showing previous evidence of linkage to bipolar illness. For D18S41 we found some evidence, and for D18S37 stronger evidence, of relative risks greater than 1, although
We examine bootstrap approaches to the analysis of the sensitivity of quantitative diagnostic test data. Methods exist for inference concerning the sensitivity of one or more tests for "xed levels of speci"city, taking into account the variability in the sensitivity due to variability in the test va
