How are variable tags generated?
Each variable has a set of associated tags, which are generated during the PIC-SURE data loading process. These tags are generated based on information associated with the variable, including the name of the study, study description, dataset name, PIC-SURE data type (continuous or categorical), and variable description. For a search in PIC-SURE, tags associated with a variable are displayed. Note that tags applicable to less than 5% or more than 95% of the search results are not displayed.
