Dear statalisters,
2 questions:
-Is there an easy way to draw 40 random patients from a sample of 450
and generate a dummy variable containg 0 "not drawn" 1"drawn". E.g a
command like : draw variable 40, gen(dummy)
-How can i compare an exposed group to a non-exposed group when I have
the number of cancer incidents in the exposed group, follow-up time
and only adjusted incidence rates for the non-exposed group ? E.g 11
cancers in 217 exposed subjects with a total follow-up time of 2500
years compared to the adjusted incidence rate of 6/100000.
Regards
Moleps
