Table 2. Probability of disease given exposure and genotype statuses according to genetic and environmental model parameters.

  Genotype
Exposure G− (1–fG) G+ (fG)
E− (1–fE) B B.RRG
E+ (fE) B.RRE B.RRG.RRE.I

Abbreviations: E+, exposed; E−, unexposed; fE, proportion of exposed individuals in population; G+, carrier of the predisposing genotype(s); G−, noncarrier of the predisposing genotype(s); fG, proportion of carriers of the predisposing genotype(s) in population; B, baseline risk; RRE, exposure relative risk; RRG, genotypic relative risk; I, multiplicative interaction coefficient for individuals both exposed and carrier of the predisposing genotype.
