sire - a simulated cohort of Finnish female rectal cancer patients
Description
sire is a simulated cohort pertaining female Finnish rectal cancer patients
diagnosed between 1993-2012. Instead of actual original dates, the dates are masked
via modest randomization within several time windows.
Format
data.table with columns
sex - gender of the patient (1 = female)
bi_date - date of birth
dg_date - date of cancer diagnosis
ex_date - date of exit from follow-up (death or censoring)
status - status of the person at exit; 0 alive; 1 dead due to pertinent cancer; 2 dead due to other causes
dg_age - age at diagnosis expressed as fractional years
Details
The closing date for the pertinent data was 2012-12-31, meaning status information was
available only up to that point — hence the maximum possible ex_date is 2012-12-31.
