Sample Simulacrum underlying tables

The Simulacrum (https://simulacrum.healthdatainsight.org.uk) is a synthetic dataset populated entirely with simulated cancer patients. In order to enhance public understanding of the methodology used to create the simulacrum, a sample of the underlying data tables was released, along with an explanatory document (see additional resources). Data within these tables shows incidences of simulation of underlying cause of death code (coded in ICD 10), the stage of the tumour (coded in UICC TNM) and the dose of chemotherapy prescribed to the patient (doses are recorded in mg or other applicable units depending on the drug), for some patients whose first tumours were breast and lung. No specific disclosure controls are applied, as all counts are at all England level for three years of grouped data 2013-2015, and the denominator populations are large enough to pass the anonymisation standard for Health and Social Care data.
