The HES data are coded using the International statistical Classification of Disease (ICD) codes, versions 9 and 10. The self-reported data (SR) have a UKB-specific coding system.
GP, general practitioner; ICD9, summary diagnoses (main and secondary); ICD10, underlying primary cause of death, contributory cause of death, and external cause of death, summary diagnoses (main and secondary); SR, non-cancer illness code, self-reported data.
