  • New packages cprdonsutil and cprdlsoautil on SSC

    Thanks as always to Kit Baum, 2 new packages cprdonsutil and cprdlsoautil are now available for download from SSC. In Stata, use the ssc command to do this.

    The cprdonsutil and cprdlsoautil packages are described as below on my website. They are both intended for use with the existing cprdutil package, and are used to input CPRD linkage datasets provided by the United Kingdom Office of National Statistics (ONS) for death-certificate data and by United Kingdom lower super-output areas (LSOAs) for social-deprivation data, respectively.

    Best wishes

    Roger

    TITLE
    cprdonsutil: Inputting CPRD ONS-linkage datasets into Stata

    DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
    The cprdonsutil package is designed for use with the cprdutil
    package, which creates Stata datasets from text data files produced
    by the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD). cprdonsutil is
    a suite of utility programs for inputting linkage text data files
    produced by CPRD to contain data on the same patients form the
    United Kingdom (UK) Office of National Statistics (ONS), and
    creating equivalent Stata datasets in the memory. Currently, there
    is one program in the suite, which imports into Stata a dataset
    type produced by a CPRD ONS linkage retrieval, with 1 observation
    for each of a set of patients on which ONS collects death data.
    cprdonsutil uses the SSC packages keyby, chardef, and lablist,
    which need to be installed for cprdonsutil to work.

    TITLE
    cprdlsoautil: Inputting CPRD LSOA-linkage datasets into Stata

    DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
    The cprdlsoautil package is designed for use with the cprdutil package,
    which creates Stata datasets from text data files produced by the
    Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD). cprdlsoautil is a suite of
    utility programs for inputting linkage text data files produced by CPRD
    to contain social-deprivation data on patients from these patients' home
    lower layer super output areas (LSOAs), and creating equivalent Stata
    datasets in the memory. cprdlsoautil {like cprdutil) uses the SSC
    packages keyby and chardef, which need to be installed for cprdlsoautil
    to work.
