HI Usha, For your first question (saw ur posting in Nabble). I subset the data on the reshaped long format data which has time variable.? Please check my previous email. BP.stacknormal<-subset(BP.stack3,Obese==0 & Overweight==0) ???????????????????????????????????????? ^^^^^^^ The variable "Categ" was created to identify the levels "Normal", "Obese" in the reshaped data.? You should also create "Overweight" just like I created the others and rbind the three subsets. I would do mixed effects model with all the three "Normal", "Obese", "Overweight" in the same model as you wanted random effects in the model.? Regarding the mixed effects model, it would be good to post the question in R mixed models (r-sig-mixed-models at r-project.org) mailing group as it specifically deals with this kind of problems.? I can't say whether nlme or lme4 is better in this case.? You could fit the model with several other variables and select the best model based on different criteria. Happy New Year! A.K. ?

Subject: Re: [R] help with reshaping wide to long format
Hi Arun
I have attached the data set .
The research question(one of them) I am trying to figure? a way out is:
Do children who are obese or overweight at age 14 experience different change in blood pressure by 21 years, compared to those with normal weight at age 14?
Also a way to deal with huge no. of missing values?.
Sorry, the above is probably not to do with R programming. No obligations, you dont have to answer them if you are not keen to.
Thanks, Usha

HI Usha,
>How big is the original data?? YOu can check with (dim(Yourdata)).? If you could email the dataset, I will look into it.? Also, check whether the format of the data is correct for all the rows.? Sometimes, spaces could alter the columns and create this kind of problems.?

>With regards to the comparison, I don't know the range of normal weight for 21 yrs old.? I would assume it depends upon height, sex, BMI etc.? In the subset data you sent to me, there were no columns with height, sex, or BMI.? If it had, then you may use ?sample() with ranges of weight for each of the combinations of categories (height, sex, BMI).? In this case, with very options, I am not sure about the right way to proceed.

May be thats the max. it could print.? Any way, I cross checked few random numbers in the wide and long format ,they tally.? Many thanks for your time and patience.
