Hi, I have a dataset for intraoperative radiotherapy, and have data for postoperative complications. There are n=113 patients, and for each patient I have a variable for wound complications, GI complications, GU complications, and neuro complications. I have each variable labelled as 0 for no complication, or 1 for complication. Additionally, for each 1 of these variables (wound, GI, GU, neuro), I think that wound complications have a higher chance of being severe complications, so I made a variables called severewoundcomp, severegicomp, etc that are for patients with that type of complication, labelled 1 if it was severe and 0 if it was not severe. I am trying to compare the proportion of complications that are severe in wound complications compared to GI, GU and neuro complications and see if this is significant. prtest and ttest don't work because they are different variables, and those compare proportions between groups within the same variable. Also, I cannot make a variable called severecomp and label 1 for severe complication and 0 for no severe complication because the same patient may have had both a wound and gi complication, but 1 was severe and 1 was not. Is it possible to do this?
