The interviewer asks the male participant how often he urinates at night, whether he has difficulty urinating and whether he has had surgery for prostate enlargement and/or prostate cancer. In the source protocol, one of the response categories is Blank but applicable/cannot be determined. According to the data documentation file, this means that "a respondent was eligible to receive the question, test, or component but did not because of refusal, lack of time, lack of staff, loss of data, broken vial, language barrier, unreliability, or other similar reasons."
