Summary: The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, with support from the National Center for Health Statistics, conducted the New York City Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NYC HANES) to improve disease surveillance and establish citywide estimates for several previously unmeasured health conditions from which reduction targets could be set and incorporated into health policy planning initiatives. NYC HANES also provides important new information about the prevalence and control of chronic disease precursors, such as undiagnosed hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and impaired fasting glucose, which allow chronic disease programs to monitor more proximate health events and rapidly evaluate primary intervention efforts. Study findings are used by the public health community in New York City, as well as by researchers and clinicians, to better target resources to the health needs of the population. The NYC HANES data consist of the following six datasets: (1) Study Participant File (SPfile), (2) Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI), (3) Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview (ACASI), (4) Composite International Diagnostic Interview(CIDI), (5) Examination Component, and (6) Laboratory Component. The Study Participant File contains variables necessary for all analyses, therefore, when using the other datasets, they should be merged to this file. Variable P_ID is the unique identifier used to merge all datasets. Merging information from multiple NYC HANES datasets using SP_ID ensures that the appropriate information for each SP is linked correctly. (SAS datasets must be sorted by SP_ID prior to merging.) Please note that NYC HANES datasets may not have the same number of records for each component because some participants did not complete each component. Demographic variables include race/ethnicity, Hispanic origin, age, body weight, gender, education level, marital status, and country of birth
