Dear Alice,

The Stata code below will give you the percentage of men/women that were measured for blood pressure. The variables used for the blood pressure measurement are sh335aa and sh335ab .
Only consider values in the range of 30 to 300 for sh335aa and in the range of 0 to 160 for sh335ab.

*Table 17.1
gen bpmeasured=0 if inrange(hv105,34,65) & hs0!=.
replace bpmeasured=1 if sh333==1

*to see the total for men and women. Note that the table is unweighted.
tab bpmeasured hv104, col

Thank you

Best,
Shireen Assaf
