There are many patid's in my data sets. Each patid contains many rows. comment where the value is missing like in the posted one (attachment).
dataset structure:
2 lbnam's are grouped into one but some lbnames not.
output should be based on patid, visit and lbnam
sample data: and please find attachment for output sholud look like ..
| PatID | Visit | lbnam | Group | Value |
| ID001 | 1 | A | 1 | 21 |
| ID001 | 1 | B | 1 | |
| ID001 | 1 | C | 2 | |
| ID001 | 1 | D | 2 | |
| ID001 | 1 | E | 3 | 11 |
| ID001 | 1 | F | 3 | 22 |
| ID001 | 2 | A | 1 | |
| ID001 | 2 | C | 2 | 22 |
| ID001 | 2 | D | 2 | 11 |
| ID001 | 2 | E | 3 | 33 |
| ID001 | 2 | F | 3 | 11 |
| ID001 | 2 | G | 2 | |
| ID001 | 2 | H |
I think that the following does what you want:
data want (drop=counter nmiss);
do until (last.group);
set have;
by PatID Visit Group notsorted;
if first.Group then do;
counter=1;
nmiss=0;
end;
else counter+1;
if missing(value) then nmiss+1;
end;
do until (last.group);
set have;
by PatID Visit Group notsorted;
if nmiss gt 0 and not missing(group)then do;
if counter eq nmiss and counter gt 1 then comment='Y';
else comment='N';
end;
output;
end;
run;
