Of 35 included countries, the median completeness of the response rate (complete response to all variables of interest) was 60% (interquartile range 38 81).
Because the resources in this study used for ortholog identification differed in completeness, ranging from EST libraries to complete genomes (Table S2), we tested the influence of missing data on our phylogenetic reconstruction.
While information on country of birth was incomplete (data completeness ranged from less than 1% to almost 50%), some differences emerged with the largest percentage of persons diagnosed with HIV who were foreign-born in Los Angeles (21.1%), followed by Miami (14.9), San Francisco (10.3%), Houston (10.5%), New York (9.0%), Tampa (7.0%), and Chicago 5.8%) (data not shown).
Report completeness ranges from 9 to 99percentt [ 8].
For revision hip and knee arthroplasty, completeness ranged from 35%to100%0%.
For specific variables, completeness ranged from 60.7%to100%0%, and PPVs ranged from 89.4%to100%0%.
SDI had slightly higher levels of missing data with completeness ranging from 80%to85%5%.
Filtering procedures in populations with the criteria specific to each of the seven data sets resulted in levels of completeness ranging from 80% to 100% (Table 1).
The completeness ranged from 60% for the registration of left ventricular ejection fraction to 100% for CPR number, sex, age, and date of procedure.
These resources varied in the types of sequencing technologies used to create them, and this resulted in differing degrees of assembly completeness, ranging from whole genomes to EST libraries (Table S2).
