Usage

invExWAS(object, formula, filter, tef = TRUE, verbose = FALSE, warnings = TRUE)

formula	formula indicating the test to be done. If any exposure is included it will be used as covariate. exwas metho will perform the test for each exposure.
filter	expression to be used to filter the individuals included into the test.

warnings	(default TRUE) If set to FALSE warnings will not be displayed.

Value

An codeExWAS object with the result of the association study

extract to obtain a table with the result of the ExWAS, plotExwas to plot the results of the association

w1 <- invExWAS(expo, ~BMI)
w2 <- invExWAS(expo, ~BMI + sex)
plotExwas(w1, w2)
