Thank you for your response! Would be great to receive that information, thank you! I excluded implausible values with the following coding, so I do not think this will be the problem:

RECODE SysBP1_W SysBP2_W SysBP3_W SysBP1_M SysBP2_M SysBP3_M (240 thru Highest=SYSMIS) (Lowest thru
70=SYSMIS).
EXECUTE.
RECODE DiasBP1_W DiasBP2_W DiasBP3_W DiasBP1_M DiasBP2_M DiasBP3_M (130 thru Highest=SYSMIS)
(Lowest thru 40=SYSMIS).
EXECUTE.

I already tried several exclusion criteria, but unfortunately did not end up with the correct numbers yet. Moreover, in other countries I end up with the correct numbers, should the coding not be similar in South Africa?

Thanks again for thinking along!

Best,

Rebecca
