Thanks yet again to Kit Baum, new versions of the packages -punaf-,
-punafcc-, -regpar-, -marglmean- and -margprev- are now available for
download from SSC. In Stata, use the -ssc- command to do this, or
-adoupdate- if you already have old versions of these packages.
The packages -punaf-, -punafcc-, -regpar-, -marglmean- and -margprev-
are described as below on my website. The new versions have a hypertext
reference in the on-line help, allowing the user to purchase my article
on these packages in the very latest issue of The Stata Journal (Newson,
2013).
Best wishes (and a happy new year in 2014)
Roger

package punaf from http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/stata13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE
punaf: Population attributable fractions for cohort studies
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
punaf calculates confidence intervals for population attributable
fractions, and also for scenario means and their ratio, known as
the population unattributable fraction. punaf can be used after
an estimation command whose predicted values are interpreted as
conditional arithmetic means, such as logit, logistic, poisson,
or glm. It estimates the logs of two scenario means, the
baseline scenario ("Scenario 0") and a fantasy scenario
("Scenario 1"), in which one or more exposure variables are
assumed to be set to particular values (typically zero), and any
other predictor variables in the model are assumed to remain the
same. It also estimates the log of the ratio of the Scenario 1
mean to the Scenario 0 mean. This ratio is known as the
population unattributable fraction, and is subtracted from 1 to
derive the population attributable fraction, defined as the
proportion of the mean of the outcome variable attributable to
living in Scenario 0 instead of Scenario 1.

package punafcc from http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/stata13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE
punafcc: Population attributable fractions for case-control and
survival studies
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
punafcc calculates confidence intervals for population attributable
and unattributable fractions in case-control or survival studies.
punafcc can be used after an estimation command whose parameters are
interpreted as log rate ratios, such as logit or logistic for
case-control data, or stcox for survival data. It estimates the log
of the mean rate ratio, in cases or deaths, between 2 scenarios, a
baseline scenario ("Scenario 0") and a fantasy scenario ("Scenario
1"), in which one or more exposure variables are assumed to be set
to particular values (typically zero), and any other predictor
variables in the model are assumed to remain the same. This ratio
is known as the population unattributable fraction (PUF), and is
subtracted from 1 to derive the population attributable fraction
(PAF), defined as the proportion of the cases or deaths attributable
to living in Scenario 0 instead of Scenario 1.

package regpar from http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/stata13
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE
regpar: Population attributable risks from binary regression models
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
regpar calculates confidence intervals for population attributable
risks, and also for scenario proportions. regpar can be used after
an estimation command whose predicted values are interpreted as
conditional proportions, such as logit, logistic, probit, or glm.
It estimates two scenario proportions, a baseline scenario
("Scenario 0") and a fantasy scenario ("Scenario 1"), in which one
or more exposure variables are assumed to be set to particular
values (typically zero), and any other predictor variables in the
model are assumed to remain the same. It also estimates the
difference between the Scenario 0 proportion and the Scenario 1
proportion. This difference is known as the population
attributable risk (PAR), and represents the amount of risk
attributable to living in Scenario 0 instead of Scenario 1.

package marglmean from http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/stata13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE
marglmean: Marginal log means from regression models
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
marglmean calculates symmetric confidence intervals for log
marginal means (also known as log scenario means), and
asymmetric confidence intervals for the marginal means
themselves. marglmean can be used after an estimation
command whose predicted values are interpreted as positive
conditional arithmetic means of non-negative-valued outcome
variables, such as logit, logistic, probit, poisson, or glm
with most non-Normal distributional families. It can
estimate a marginal mean for a scenario ("Scenario 1"), in
which one or more exposure variables may be assumed to be
set to particular values, and any other predictor variables
in the model are assumed to remain the same.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITLE
margprev: Marginal prevalences from binary regression models
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
margprev calculates confidence intervals for marginal
prevalences, also known as scenario proportions. margprev can be
used after an estimation command whose predicted values are
interpreted as conditional proportions, such as logit, logistic,
probit, or glm. It estimates a marginal prevalence for a
scenario ("Scenario 1"), in which one or more predictor variables
may be assumed to be set to particular values, and any other
predictor variables in the model are assumed to remain the same.
