✦ Synopsis

BRESLOW

(1984)

deacribed an efficient score teat for trend in incidence density rate ratios for cohort studies under a conditional Poisson or binomial model employing maximum likelihood estimation of the rate parametere. In this communication. an alternative derivation of this etatistic that is based on an unconditional approach is provided, along with an exemination of 8880ciated gdnesa-of-fit testa and methods of confidence mterval estimation. The procedures are illustrated by a cohort study of ischemic heart disease mortality following industrial expoeure to carbon disulfide.

The Cochran-Armitage test for trend is a popular statistical procedure for detecting increasing or decreasing probabilities of response when a categorical exposure is ordered. Such associations may arise in a variety of biomedical research settings, particularly in dose-response designs such as carc
