For each pair of twins, compute the following for the lumbar spine: A = BMD for the heavier-smoking twin − BMD for the lighter-smoking twin = x1 − x2 B = mean BMD for the twinship = (x1 + x2)/2 C = 100% × (A/B) Derive appropriate descriptive statistics for C over the entire study population. 2.39. Suppose we group the twin pairs according to the difference in tobacco use expressed in 10 pack-year groups (0–9.9 pack-years/10–19.9 pack-years/20–29.9 pack-years/30–39.9 pack-years/40+ pack-years).
