Supplementary Table 2. Algorithm performance for detecting incident bladder cancer
# Sampled / # True incident bladder cancers / PPV (%) for incident cancer / 95% CIAll patients / 194 / 182 / 93.8 / 89.4-96.7

Supplementary Table 3. Computation of the proportion of muscle-invasive bladder cancer that is captured by the algorithm for muscle-invasion among those with coded bladder cancer diagnosis in THIN
Codes that predict muscle-invasive / Muscle-invasive on chart review / Number Included in chart review / Weighted value aA / Yes / Yes / 61 / 4.33
B / Yes / No / 26 / 1.84
C / No / Yes / 7 / 6.50
D / No / No / 91 / 84.5
Estimated proportion without weighting [A/(A+C)] = 89.7% (79.9-95.7)
Estimated proportion with weighting [A/(A+C)] = 40.0% (12.1-73.8)
a Weighted calculation based on N=1,347 patients in THIN with codes for muscle-invasive bladder cancer and N=17,626 patients in THIN with codes for superficial bladder cancer. Row A weighted value =[61*(1347/(1347+17626)]; Row B weighted value = [26*(1347/(1347+17626)]; Row C weighted value = [7*(17626/(1347+17626)]; and Row D weighted value = [91*(17626/(1347+17626)].
