...we would expect. Gene expression is lowest in the infected/not vaccinated group, then next lowest is the infected/vaccinated group and finally comes the uninfected/not vaccinated group. So the working hypothesis is that gene expression of the gene in question is lowered by infection, but that the vaccine somehow alleviates this effect, but not as much as to the level of a totally uninfected subject. We *might* have access to data relating to uninfected/vaccinated group, my pet scientist is digging for this as we speak. As for lesions, well none of the uninfected subjects have them, all of the inf...

Hi So carrying on my use of analysis of variance to check for the effects of two factors. It's made simpler by the fact that both my factors have only two levels each, creating four unique groups. I have a highly significant interaction term. In the context of the experiment, this makes sense. I can visualise the data graphically, and sure enough I can see that both factors have different

Hi all, I have just uploaded the hbim package. This package does calculations related to the Hill/Bliss independence model as applied to mulitcomponent vaccines. Specifically, the package caculates expected relative risk and proportion protected assuming normally distributed log10 transformed antibody dose for a several component vaccine. It uses Hill models for each component which are combined under Bliss independence. A description of the motivation f...

Dear R-experts, The forest.rma() function from the metafor package creates nice forest plots for presenting the results of a meta-analysis. These plots can be annotated for e.g. giving names to the columns. E.g. as in the documentation of the package: data(dat.bcg) ### meta-analysis of the log relative risks using a random-effects model res <- rma(ai=tpos, bi=tneg, ci=cpos, di=cneg,

Hi All, I would like to use anonymous cvs, but it appears not to be working (again?). There was a discussion back in Jan-Feb about whether to continue supporting it, but it seemed that Tony Rossini got it working and the discussion left off there. Did someone decide to disable it, or is it just not working properly? Here's the details: $ cvs -d

Hello, I am using odesolve to simulate a group of people moving through time and transmitting infections to one another. In Matlab, there is a NonNegative option which tells the Matlab solver to keep the vector elements of the ODE solution non-negative at all times. What is the right way to do this in R? Thanks, Jeremy P.S., Below is a simplified version of the code I use to try to do this,

Because there is no such thing when it comes to computers. Computers with strong passphrases still sometimes get pwned, and at a much higher rate than vaccines not working. Please stop with this hideously bad analogy. Computers with NO passwords are often not ever getting pwned for their entire lifetime, and those computers, a.k.a. mobile devices, are used in public spaces, on public wifi, on public networks.

Hello All, ? Am replicating in R an analysis I did earlier using SAS. See this as a test of whether I'm ready to start using R in my day-to-day work. ? Just finished replicating a Kaplan Meier analysis. Everything seems to work out fine except for one thing. The 95% CI around my estimate for the median is substantially larger in R than in SAS. For example, in SAS I have a median of 3.29 with a
