BINARY RESPONSES OF RETINOPATHY IN T2DM USING GEE MODELING AND GOODNESS OF FIT TESTS
Journal Title: Int J of Pharm Res & Analy - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
ABSTRACT Retinopathy is a major cause of blindness in DM worldwide. We aimed to study the prevalence of retinopathy in DM by screening and its complications. The risk factors are uncontrolled DM prolonged duration of the disease and lack of regular screening. The above factors are studied using GEE modeling for binary responses from patients of diabetic retinopathy. Two models are fitted and obtained their estimate, standard error and significance of the main effects and interaction. Also two goodness-of-fit tests are proposed for GEE modeling. Keywords: DM (Diabetes Mellitus), DR (Diabetic Retinopathy), GEE (Generalized Estimation Equations), Goodness-of-fit test.
