The data contributing sites will be responsible for checking the quality of their formatted data (e.g., making sure that values for all variables are credible, confirming the sample size, and checking the number of missing observations for each variable) prior to analysis and in the results returned to the coordinating site. The coordinating site will review the results and work out any anomalies with the data providers, and perform meta-analyses.
