How do I use the Datamart?
The datamart is very easy to use. First identify the dataset you would like to query. Next select the key row and column factors you would like in your data table. Then select the year or years of data you would like to access, and select the geographic area on which you want information. Next highlight whether you want just frequencies, or frequencies and the type of percentages you would like, row or column, or whether you would like age adjusted rates (available in some datasets). Next just identify the risk factor or factors, or the cause of death that you would like to study. You can select more than one. Please remember the data are provided in several levels, beginning with the most general going to more specific data. Anytime a disease group appears in blue, there is additional information that may be obtained by drilling down.
