Estonian stroke data

Taken from the package {ISwR}, this example dataset is of all cases of stroke in Tartu, Estonia, during the period 1991–1993, with follow-up until January 1, 1996. The main edits here are to decorate this with specified variable types and define a binary classification of "dead or alive" at 12 months from initial stroke.
