| Creating Tabular Reports |
| Labeling Keywords for Statistics and
ALL |
| In addition to adding titles, footnotes, and labels for variable names, you can change headings for statistics or the special class variable ALL. For example, look at the table below. You can change ALL to All Patients for clarity, and you can label MEAN as Average. |
| Sex of Patient | All Patients | |||
| F | M | |||
| Height | Average | 64.82 | 72.00 | 68.24 |
| Weight | Average | 141.73 | 172.80 | 156.52 |
| To change headings for statistics or ALL, you use the KEYLABEL statement. |
General form, KEYLABEL statement:
KEYLABEL keyword='text'; where keyword is ALL or one of the following keywords for statistics: N MEAN MIN PCTN
SUM MAX STD PCTSUM
|
As with the LABEL statement, you can specify several labels in a single
KEYLABEL statement, but only one label for each keyword.
proc tabulate data=clinic.admit;
class sex;
var height weight;
table (height weight)*mean,sex all;
label sex='Sex of Patient'
height='Height'
weight='Weight';
keylabel mean='Average'
all='All Patients';
run;
Here's another example of a KEYLABEL statement: keylabel min='Lowest Reading'
max='Highest Reading'
mean='Average Reading';
|
| Lowest Reading |
Highest Reading |
Average Reading |
||
| Sex | 152.00 | 568.00 | 253.45 | |
| F | Fasting Glucose Level |
|||
| M | Fasting Glucose Level |
156.00 | 492.00 | 354.89 |
