| Popis: |
Previous work has demonstrated the feasibility and value of conducting distributed regression analysis (DRA), a privacy-protecting analytic method that performs multivariable-adjusted regression analysis with only summary-level information from participating sites. To our knowledge, there are no DRA applications in SAS, the statistical software used by several large national distributed data networks (DDNs), including the Sentinel System and PCORnet. SAS/IML is available to perform the required matrix computations for DRA in the SAS system. However, not all data partners in these large DDNs have access to SAS/IML, which is licensed separately. In this first article of a two-paper series, we describe a DRA application developed for use in Base SAS and SAS/STAT modules for linear and logistic DRA within horizontally partitioned DDNs and its successful tests. |
