  • 1.  Case Control matching

    Posted Mon September 19, 2022 06:38 AM
    Hi,

    I want to case-control match by age and sex. However, a new dataset is created but with no values. There was no warnings in the output though. I could send syntax.  Any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks

    Hi. Yes, we would need to see something, preferably sample(s) of the data and your syntax, to see what might be going on.

    You could either attach them publicly here or send them to me privately at marcantr@us.ibm.com.

    Thanks.

    When you look at the match statistics tables from this procedure, what do you see?  It shows the number of matches that were made -  fuzzy and exact.  If it shows zero matches, you probably need to loosen the matching criteria.
