Table 3 Estimated PAF attributable to BHS and to BDI by the logistic regression approach (logit), the conventional B-splines approach (conB), and the developed approach (monB). The 95% confidence intervals are obtained from 2.5% and 97.5% quantiles of 1000 bootstrap estimates

From: Semiparametric estimation of the attributable fraction when there are interactions under monotonicity constraints
