Moreover, enabling linkage will help governments in developing efficient and adequate policies through a better identification of risk groups.
14 Since 2004, laboratory notifications have included personal identification numbers, enabling linkage of the data with that in other registries.
Each resident has a unique personal civil registration number enabling linkage of administrative healthcare data between nationwide registries.
Furthermore, the method accurately identifies regions of IBD, enabling linkage-like studies without pedigrees, and can be used to impute most genotypes with very low error rate.
Every resident in Denmark is provided with a permanent and unique civil registration number at birth, enabling linkage between registers at individual level.
The registration number identifies the patient in all health registries thus enabling linkage and complete follow up data achieved from a number of data sources.
The integrated HIV and FP service model developed explicit linkages with FP services and relevant HIV/AIDS services, and enabling linkage with antiretroviral therapy (ART) services for eligible clients, either on-site or through referral to other health facilities.
The registrant database includes patient first and last name, sex, date of birth, unique lifelong medical insurance identifier, and 6-digit postal code, the latter enabling linkage to census information by geographic area of residence.
Over the last four decades advances in molecular technology have meant a wider range and greater number of genetic markers have become available, enabling linkage maps to be created for an increasing number of species, including many non-model organisms [ 7- 9].
In particular, we exploited the combinatorial nature of the data to stratify each global ChIP-seq data set into more coherent subsets, enabling linkage of TF binding to gene expression and DNA motif content.
