Uses a generalized method to estimate the
Potential Impact Fraction, (PIF) and the Population Attributable Fraction (PAF)
from cross-sectional data. It creates point-estimates (pif
,
paf
), confidence intervals (pif.confidence
,
paf.confidence
),and estimates of variance.
In addition it generates plots for conducting sensitivity analysis (pif.sensitivity
,
pif.heatmap
, pif.plot
).
The estimation method corresponds to Zepeda-Tello, Camacho-Garc<c3><ad>a-Forment<c3><ad>, et al,
'Nonparametric Methods to Estimate the Potential Impact Fraction from Cross-sectional Data',
Unpublished manuscript. 2017.
