| | At [[1a_questionnaire_1|1A]], [[1b|1B]], [[1c|1C]], [[2a_questionnaire_1|2A]], and [[3a_questionnaire_1|3A]] type of cancer (tumor) was reported by participants in an open text field. From 2A onwards a limited number of cancer types (i.e., colon cancer, lung cancer, skin cancer, brain tumor, bone cancer, breast cancer, and prostate cancer) are also directly assessed via yes/no questions. At [[3b|3B]] only these direct cancer type questions are used, there is no open text field. Researchers from the University Medical Center Groningen coded these [[cancer|self-reported cancer variables]] into 35 cancer type categories. The secondary cancer type variables will be added to the [[https://data-catalogue.lifelines.nl/|Lifelines catalogue]] very soon. |

| Tumors were coded using the directly assessed cancer variables or terms mentioned in the open text field and categorized according to type, location, and stage. If participants mentioned a term related to metastasis in the open text field an additional cancer metastasis variable was coded as 1. | Tumors were coded using the directly assessed cancer variables or terms mentioned in the open text field and categorized according to type, location, and stage. If participants mentioned a term related to metastasis in the open text field an additional cancer metastasis variable was coded as 1. For 1A the coding of all open text fields was checked by an MD/PhD student of the Oncology Epidemiology department. When in doubt a pathologist was asked to make a final decision. If the student or pathologist did not agree with the coding of an open text field, the text field was manually recoded based on their input. From 1B onwards the algorithm and manual correction have been applied by the Lifelines data management team. Only the open text fields that were also recoded at 1A have manually been corrected. Additionally, open text fields that were not coded by the algorithm have manually been coded. |
