Secondary Dataset Files Sample Clauses

Secondary Dataset Files. The NAACCR Executive Office gives client server access to the CiNA Deluxe (NAACCR analytic) or special files to approved NAACCR researchers. Each file is the property of NAACCR, Inc. Data may be exported to other statistical software, such as SAS, for analysis. General information and variables lists for all file types are available on the NAACCR Website: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/cina-data-products- overview/. There are 4 types of CiNA datasets: • The first file type is the standard CiNA Deluxe file with 19 age-groups and no county identifiers. Depending upon the researcher request, this file may include special variables such as reside in Appalachian County (Y/N) or recodes for breast cancer subtypes. Active Consent is used to obtain registry permission to include data for projects using these types of CiNA files. • The second file type contains the variables from the CiNA Deluxe file but may contain single years of age, county identifiers, or special variables that could identify a county or lower level of geography. Passive Consent is used to obtain registry permission to include data for projects using these types of CiNA files. • The third file type are special datasets. Currently, we have CiNA Survival and CiNA Imputed Breast Cancer Subtypes. NAACCR is developing CiNA Geographic file as well. These files are created by NAACCR Workgroups/Taskforces and evaluated for Fitness for Use prior to releasing to outside researchers. Currently, CiNA Survival requires Passive Consent. CiNA Imputed Breast Cancer Subtypes and the anticipated CiNA Geographic files would require Active Consent. • The fourth type of CiNA file is a limited variable, non-confidential, Public Use dataset. The dataset is available upon request after signing a data use agreement. The dataset automatically suppresses cells less than 6 and many variables are recoded to enable non-researchers to use the data. . There are two options for registry inclusion in the Public Use CiNA file—one will allow data to be exported outside of SEER*Stat and one will not allow data to be exported outside SEER*Stat. Registries have the opportunity to consent to each option separately. The Data Use Agreement and a list of included variables and recodes are included with the Call For Data instructions (Appendix A) as well as on the NAACCR website: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/cina- public-use-data-set/. All CiNA files created for research will be deleted 1 year after the project is closed.

Data may be exported to other statistical software, such as SAS, for analysis. A second format of the CiNA Deluxe involves a customized file. Variables in the CiNA Deluxe Custom File can include a county identifier or any of the variables in the standard data file, which have had the variable values re-categorized to meet the specific needs of a research proposal. All uses of the Custom file format require an active consent by participating registries.
