tscc

Power calculation for two-stage case-control design


Description

This function gives power estimates for two-stage case-control design for genetic association.

The false positive rates are calculated as follows,

P(|z1|>C1)P(|z2|>C2,sign(z1)=sign(z2))

and

P(|z1|>C1)P(|zj|>Cj||z1|>C1)

for replication-based and joint analyses, respectively; where C1, C2, and Cj are threshoulds at stages 1, 2 replication and joint analysis,

z1 = z(p1,p2,n1,n2,pi.samples)

z2 = z(p1,p2,n1,n2,1-pi.samples)

zj = sqrt(pi.samples)*z1+sqrt(1-pi.samples)*z2

Usage

tscc(model,GRR,p1,n1,n2,M,alpha.genome,pi.samples,pi.markers,K)

Arguments

model

any in c("multiplicative","additive","dominant","recessive")

GRR

genotype relative risk

p1

the estimated risk allele frequency in cases

n1

total number of cases

n2

total number of controls

M

total number of markers

alpha.genome

false positive rate at genome level

pi.samples

sample% to be genotyped at stage 1

pi.markers

markers% to be selected (also used as the false positive rate at stage 1)

K

the population prevalence

Value

The returned value is a list containing a copy of the input plus output as follows,

model

any in c("multiplicative","additive","dominant","recessive")

GRR

genotype relative risk

p1

the estimated risk allele frequency in cases

pprime

expected risk allele frequency in cases

p

expected risk allele frequency in controls

n1

total number of cases

n2

total number of controls

M

total number of markers

alpha.genome

false positive rate at genome level

pi.samples

sample% to be genotyped at stage 1

pi.markers

markers% to be selected (also used as the false positive rate at stage 1)

K

the population prevalence

C

threshoulds for no stage, stage 1, stage 2, joint analysis

power

power corresponding to C
