st: Adjusted population attributable risk - is this possible with Stata?

Dear All,
I know that I can use 'ir' to calculate attributable risk for a population, or for the exposed, for some variable.
However, is there a way that I can get an *adjusted* population attributable risk (PAR)?
For example, if my outcome of interest is heart disease, and my exposures are diabetes, hypertension and obesity, how can I calculate the PAR for diabetes after adjusting for the other factors? This doesn't seem possible with ir.
Are there any Stata modules that will do this?
Thanks,
Zoe.
