    Area of Science:

    • Biostatistics
    • Epidemiology
    • Statistical Modeling

    Background:

    • Estimating multivariate relative risk in stratified case-control studies is crucial for epidemiological research.
    • Existing methods like the Mantel-Haenszel estimator are limited in complex scenarios.
    • The conditional likelihood approach may fail for certain data structures, such as family or longitudinal data.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a novel class of estimating functions for multivariate relative risk.
    • To evaluate the large-sample properties and efficiency of the proposed estimators.
    • To demonstrate the applicability of the method to family and longitudinal data.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a new class of estimating functions for multivariate relative risk.

  • Analysis of large-sample properties under two distinct situations.
  • Efficiency comparisons with the conditional maximum likelihood estimator.
  • Application to case-control, family aggregation, and longitudinal data.
  • Main Results:

    • The proposed estimating functions generalize the Mantel-Haenszel estimator for a single binary risk factor.
    • Large-sample properties of the estimators are established.
    • The proposed estimators demonstrate high efficiency, approaching that of the conditional maximum likelihood estimator.
    • The method is successfully applied to family and longitudinal data where other methods fail.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed estimating functions provide a robust and efficient method for estimating multivariate relative risk.
    • This approach extends the utility of relative risk estimation to complex data structures.
    • The method offers a valuable tool for epidemiological and biostatistical analyses.
