Re: [R] Sensitivity analysis - looking a tool for epidemiologic research

[Dominic Comtois]

Thanks for the reply. I am aware of those packages, as well as of a few
others (epiR, epinet, epibasix, epicalc). Unfortunately, they don't do this.
I'll try to get in touch with the authors of the Stata package, who knows.

Regards,

D.C.

R has several packages for epidemiology. Maybe one of them has it. Take a
look.
To name just two:  "Epi" and "epitools"

[R] Sensitivity analysis - looking a tool for epidemiologic research

[Dominic Comtois]

Stata users can rely on the very neat Episens package for sensitivity
analysis. Briefly, it allows one to specify a diagnostic tool's sensitivity
and specificity and take those into account when estimating a risk ratio,
for instance. A full description of the package is available at

http://www.stata-journal.com/sjpdf.html?articlenum=st0138

 

Anyone aware of a similar package in R?

 

Thanks
