A quick reminder that questionnaire data cannot be released outside the 
IRB-approved research team.

Comment (by brad_mcdowell):

 I'm afraid the only insight I can provide is that the problem with the  UIOWA 
data appears to be that the link between patient_num and  row_num/order_num (or 
between some other identifier like StudyID) became  compromised. This 
apparently led to mismatches between the survey and  registry/EMR files (so 
that one patient's data was incorrectly paired with  another patient's data).

 As I mentioned, our primary effort right now is to carefully redo the  
survey/registry linkage with data that comes directly from our oncology  
registry. The secondary concern is finding out what happened, but we are  
working on that, too. Our approach is to track the linkage through the  various 
back-and-forth steps that took place from the initial  identification of 
eligible cases through the creation of the final  datamart.

 I understand that Kristin Osinski at MCW has the questionnaire data.
