Dear Naomi and Gordon,
Just in case it helps someone else, I am attaching a more verbose
version of
the code snippet that Gordon sent, because I found the "diag(p)
[,attr(X,"assign")==3]" non-intuitive, so I called makeContrasts
explicitly.
This is the example:
*****************************************************************
## treat is a factor with three levels; age is a continuous variable.
X <- model.matrix( ~ treat*age.centered)
fit <- lmFit(d.clean, X)
p <- ncol(X)
cont.ia <- diag(p)[,attr(d.trt.BY.age3,"assign")==3]
fit.ia <- eBayes(contrasts.fit(fit, cont.ia))
############# Using my more verbose apporach
X2 <- model.matrix( ~ treat*age.centered)
colnames(X2) <- c("Intercept", "Colon", "Mama",
"age", "Colon.by.age", "Mama.by.age")
contrasts.trt.BY.age <- makeContrasts(Colon.by.age,
Mama.by.age,
levels = X2)
fit2 <- lmFit(d.clean, X2)
fit.ia2 <- eBayes(contrasts.fit(fit2,
contrasts.trt.BY.age))
### We can of course do instead (which I like better)
X2 <- model.matrix(~ -1 + treat + age.centered +
treat*age.centered)
colnames(X2) <- c("Colon", "Mama", "Normal",
"age", "Colon.by.age", "Mama.by.age")
contrasts.trt.BY.age <- makeContrasts(Colon.by.age,
Mama.by.age,
levels = X2)
*************************************************
Best,
R.
