I have 1000 subjects (two treatment groups) and about 200 visits for
individual subject and recorded their diarrhea [0= no diarrhea and 1=
diarrhea].
I want to record episodes of diarrhea as 1 (episodes=1) if there is series
of diarrhea; and if there is 2 or more diarrhea-free days (diarrhea = 0)
after a diarrhea days and the next days with diarrhea (diarrhea=1), recorded
as second episode of diarrhea (episode=1). Example in the table below,
I want to write stata code which could help me recording the episodes based
on the sequence of diarrhea.
