Values of relative risks for different genetic models

Relative risks
Null model γ1 = γ2 = γ = 1
Model with × inactivation
 Recessive γ1 = 1, γ2 = γ > 1
 Additive
γ1=(1+γ2)2,γ2=γ>1
 Dominant γ1 = γ2 = γ > 1
Model without × inactivation
 Recessive γ1 = γ = 1, γ2 > 1
 Additive
γ1=γ=(1+γ2)2,γ2>1
 Dominant γ1 = γ2 = γ > 1

γ1 = Heterozygous relative risk for females; γ2 = homozygous relative risk for females; γ = relative risk for males.
