Count outputs

Epilepsy attacks data set: count outputs are taken into account along with categorical and continuous covariates. The data arose from a clinical trial of 59 epileptics who were randomized to receive either the anti-epileptic drug progabide or a placebo, as an adjuvant to standard chemotherapy. Patients attended four successive post-randomisation clinic visits, where the number of seizures that occurred over the previous 2 weeks was reported.

Crohn’s Disease Adverse Events data set: Data set issued from a study of the adverse events of a drug on 117 patients affected by Crohn’s disease (a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestines). In addition to the response variable number of adverse events, 7 explanatory variables were recorded for each patient.
