Abstract: genass is a wrapper command for performing case-control analyses in genetic association studies. Allele and genotype frequencies are calculated, and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is calculated for cases and controls. Allelic and genotypic models are tested under a number of different disease models, and all results are collated into one Stata formatted data set for subsequent use. Html formatted tables and graphs of results can be drawn if desired. Roger Newson's listtex package and David Clayton's genassoc package (from http://www-gene.cimr.cam.ac.uk/clayton/software/stata/) are required.

Language: Stata
