st: clogit:determining number of observations for each level of a categorical variable

[Daniel Herbert Opi <opi.herbert@gmail.com>]

Dear Statalist,
I am new to Statalist and had a question that I hope I can get some
input on. I am carrying out conditional logistic regression-clogit
(example below) on a case control study where each case has been
matched to a control to look at the effect of several independent
categorical variables (xyz and abc in my example) on a dependent
variable of disease outcome (disease). The output in stata shows the
total number of observations used for the analysis (326 in this case)
but I was wondering whether there is a way of determining the number
of observations used for each level of the independent categorical
variables (xyz and abc) since I can already tell some observations (65
in this case) have been dropped because of having all positive or
negative outcomes.

. clogit disease i.xyz i.abc, strata (set1) or
note: 65 groups (65 obs) dropped because of all positive or
      all negative outcomes.
Iteration 0:   log likelihood = -107.72902
Iteration 1:   log likelihood = -107.64854
Iteration 2:   log likelihood = -107.64852
Iteration 3:   log likelihood = -107.64852
Conditional (fixed-effects) logistic regression   Number of obs   =        326
                                                  LR chi2(4)      =      10.67
                                                  Prob > chi2     =     0.0305
Log likelihood = -107.64852                       Pseudo R2       =     0.0472
