Abstract

Two-phase stratified sampling has been extensively used in large epidemiologic studies as a way of reducing costs associated with assembling covariate histories and enlarging relative sample sizes of the most informative subgroups. In this article, we investigate case-cohort sampled current status data under the additive risk model assumption. We describe a class of estimating equations, each depending on a different prevalence ratio estimate. Asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators and inference based on the “m out of n” nonparametric bootstrap are investigated. A small simulation study is employed to evaluate the finite sample performance and relative efficiency of the proposed estimators.
