Hi Eelco
it depends on how you setup your GLM. Are you trying to regress out the
effects of obesity in some way? If you give us more details I expect
someone else can answer your question (Doug!)

Thanks for the quick reply!
So if I understand correctly, the power of say the controls vs. diabetes
(indeed it is type 2 diabetes) comparison is constrained by the sample size
of the obese group?

Hi Eelco
it isn't really a question of whether our implementation is
senstitive to
this. It's that in general your power will be constrained by the
size of
the smaller group (I assume this is Type 2 diabetes by the way).
cheers
