为了估计疾病暴露因素之间的交互作用,提出了一种分析疾病暴露因素的交互作用的有效方法.该方法建立一个广义线性模型,通过估计模型中的参数及方差、协方差,定量的分析交互作用的大小和类型,不仅适用于队列研究资料,同时也适用用于病例一对照研究资料.
This paper proposed an effective method to measure interaction between two exposure factors of the disease. The general linear model was used to analyze quantitatively interaction by estimating RERI and assess type of interaction by means of estimating the parameters and their variances and co-variances in the models. The method is suitable both to cohort study and to case-control study.
