This repository uses renv to ensure that a project-specific R package library is used and that functionality is maintained even if packages have breaking changes in the future.
If you clone this package, make sure you create the same package library by using the command renv::restore() to restore the project library locally to your machine.
You find more details on https://rstudio.github.io/renv/articles/collaborating.html.
Due to legal restrictions, the individual level raw data used for this analysis is only available via request to the German Center for Cancer Registry Data (ZfKD) that can provide a scientific use file. More information on the application process is provided on the ZfKD website (https://www.krebsdaten.de/Krebs/EN/Content/ScientificUseFile/scientificusefile_node.html).
