Classification errors, selection bias, and uncontrolled confounders are likely to be present in most epidemiologic studies, but the uncertainty introduced by these types of biases is seldom quantified. The authors present a simple yet easy- to-use Stata command to adjust the relative risk for...

Nearly every epidemiologic study of residential magnetic fields and childhood leukemia has exhibited a positive association. Nonetheless, because these studies suffer from various methodologic limitations and there is no known plausible mechanism of action, it remains uncertain as to how much,...

This paper presents a command, glst, for trend estimation across different exposure levels for either single or multiple summarized case-control, incidence-rate, and cumulative incidence data. This approach is based on constructing an approximate covariance estimate for the log relative risks...

The use of flexible models for the relationship between a quantitative covariate and the response variable can be limited by the difficulty in interpret- ing the regression coefficients. In this article, we present a new postestimation command, xblc, that facilitates tabular and graphical...
