A single observation will show data for the following variables (among others): Donor_id r_disp (fate of right kidney) L_disp (fate of left kidney) Kdri (measure of kidney quality) Donor_id is the index variable. I want to run a proc logistic to investigate the odds of discard but I only have discard data by left and right. So I need to combine them someone into one discard variable for analysis. ...

I have a dataset related to kidney transplants and each donor has a donor id and both the left and right kidneys are tied to that donor id.    I need to create a binary variable called 'discard' (0=no, 1=yes) that is a composite of left and right kidney dispositions.    Currently I have the variables: donor_id r_disp (5=discard, 6=transplant) l_disp (5=discard, 6=transplant)   How do I create a variable called "discard" that will be a composite indicator of r_disp and l_disp so that I can investigate the odds of discard overall?      ...
