diabDat

This dataset was simulated by sampling cases from an existing type 1 diabetes study (the original data could not be disclosed). The study investigates the relationship between concentration levels (low and high) of the islet antigen 2 antibody (IA2A) and several covariates of potential interest in type 1 diabetes patients (age, gender, and the number of copies (0,1 or 2) of the HLA-DQ2, HLA-DQ8 and HLA-DQ6.2 haplotypes).

datasets

elrm implements a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm to
approximate exact conditional inference for logistic regression
models. Exact conditional inference is based on the
distribution of the sufficient statistics for the parameters of
interest given the sufficient statistics for the remaining
nuisance parameters. Using model formula notation, users
specify a logistic model and model terms of interest for exact
inference.
