tdt: Compute TDT and adjusted TDT on case- and/or control-trios

In TRD: Transmission Ratio Distortion

Description

Compute TDT on case- and control-trios, and adjusted TDT on case-trios using transmission ratio of minor allele calculated from control-trios [Labbe et al. 2013]. When control-trios are not supplied in the input data, only TDT on case-trios is computed. Similarly, when case-trios are not supplied, only TDT on control-trios is computed. The adjusted TDT uses both case- and control-trios, and takes into account of TRD. Note that trios with missing data are discarded.

Usage

tdt(sample)

Arguments

sample

case- and/or control-trios dataset with first column as disease status (1=case, 0=control), the second, third and forth columns as maternal, paternal and child genotypes. The fifth column, if entered as part of the input data, is the parent-of-origin indicator of disease allele in a heterozygous child (a value of 1 indicates the mother transmitted the disease allele and 0 indicates the father transmitted). The parent-of-origin indicator is only meaningful for a heterozygous child.

Value

case statistics	TDT statistics for case-trios
control statistics	TDT statistics for control-trios
Adjusted-case statistics	Adjusted TDT statistics for case-trios using transmission ratio of minor allele in control-trios
case p-value	TDT p-value for case-trios
control p-value	TDT p-value for control-trios
Adjusted-case p-value	Adjusted TDT p-value for case-trios using transmission ratio of minor allele in control-trios
