| Patient data | incdat | Incidence date

The incidence date is the date of the first histological or cytological confirmation of the tumour. It cannot be later than the start of treatment. If treatment begins before histological confirmation, the incidence date is the date of clinical diagnosis. It must always fall within three months of the first clinical visit related to this tumour.

| Patient data | ink_ses | Median income in postal code area as a proxy for socioeconomic status (SES)
+
Available from 2010. Socioeconomic status (SES) reflects an individual's social position, which strongly influences health and is linked to life expectancy in good health. Research on SES and health typically uses indicators such as education, income, occupation, and material wealth. This variable uses income as a proxy for SES.
Income data by postal code area were obtained from Statistics Netherlands (CBS), with 2019 as the reference year, downloaded on 16 October 2023 via https://www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/dossier/nederland-regionaal/geografische-data
/gegevens-per-postcode.
Income is defined as the median disposable household income, adjusted for household size and composition. For each area, the median standardised household income was compared to the national distribution and classified into one of five groups: low, lower-middle, middle, upper-middle, or high. Income thresholds (in euros) are available at: https://www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/longread/diversen/2023/statistische-gegevens-per-vierkant-en-postcode-2022-2021-2020-2019/4-beschrijving-cijfers. Because postal code areas often have few households, CBS also
considered the 99% confidence interval of the median income. If this interval spans multiple groups, a new category was created to reflect the range (e.g., 'low to lower-middle'). Categories may partially overlap due to this approach. If the median income is based on fewer than 10 households, it is classified as 'unclassifiable'. CBS originally defined 12 income categories.
For this variable, these were reduced to three to simplify analysis and remove overlaps.
Key considerations:
- Income is a snapshot and does not reflect accumulated wealth.
- Data are aggregated by postal code area, which may include substantial variation.
- Household income is strongly age-dependent; analyses should compare individuals within the same age group.
- Median disposable income is considered valid for up to 10 years before and after the reference year (2019).

Once a year, at the end of the first quarter, the NCR is linked to the Municipal Personal Records Database (GBA). The GBA is complete up to February of that year. Vital status reflects the status up to this date. For patients listed as alive in the GBA, the vital status date is the date up to which the GBA is complete. If a patient is recorded as deceased or emigrated, the vital status date is the date of death or emigration. Using this date and the incidence date, the interval between incidence and vital status (in days) is calculated.

| Tumour data | figo | FIGO stage derived from TNM
+
The FIGO classification, proposed by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO), is used to stage gynaecological tumours and complements the TNM classification for malignant tumours.
Cervical tumours:
Tumours up to incidence year 2021 are staged using FIGO 2009, based solely on clinical parameters. From 2021 onwards, FIGO 2018 applies, incorporating clinical, pathological, and imaging parameters, with pathology taking
precedence. For stage IIIC, the diagnostic basis is shown in figo_diag_basis.
Ovarian tumours:
Tumours up to incidence year 2017 use FIGO 1988; from 2017 onwards, FIGO 2014 applies. Both rely on pTNM, supplemented by cTNM if pTNM is unknown. If pre-surgical therapy is given, cTNM replaces pTNM. Clinically
confirmed metastases conut as metastases even without pathological confirmation.
Endometrial tumours:
Tumours up to incidence year 2010 use FIGO 1988; from 2010 onwards, FIGO 2009 applies. Both rely on pTNM, supplemented by cTNM if unknown. If pre-surgical therapy is given, cTNM replaces pTNM. Clinically confirmed
metastases count as metastases even without pathological confirmation.
Vulvar tumours:
Tumours up to incidence year 1999 use FIGO 1988; from 1999-2009, FIGO 1994 applies; from 2010 onwards, FIGO 2009 applies. All rely on pTNM, supplemented by cTNM if unknown. If pre-surgical therapy is given, cTNM replaces
pTNM. Clinically confirmed metastases count as metastases even without pathological confirmation.

The metastasis date refers to the first histological or cytological confirmation of the
metastasis. If histological confirmation does not occur within three
months, the clinical diagnosis date is used. Consequently, the
metastasis date may precede the primary tumour incidence date by up

| Tumour data | meta_topo_sublok | Topography including sublocation of metastasis

Metastasis location according to ICD-O-3. Metastatic sites have been recorded nationwide since 2008. For distant metastases at more than three sites, C768 was coded up to 2014 to indicate more than three locations. In 2017/2018 C768 may indicate more than four locations.
Explanation for records where both cM and pM show no metastases despite metastatic sites being recorded at diagnosis: cTNM is based on information available before (neo-adjuvant) treatment, including findings during surgery (if not treated neo-adjuvantly) that influence the treatment plan. pM indicates whether pathological
confirmation exists for distant metastases. If metastases are detected during or after neo-adjuvant treatment, TNM is not updated, but metastasis locations are recorded.
If the dataset includes metastasis locations after progression: only new or enlarged metastases are recorded, not all existing ones. C809 is coded for clinical progression when the site is unknown.

The yes/no variables for categories are summarised in cci_cat (0, 1, 2 or more) and cci (weighted score per
Charlson 1987), with some categories counted only once if both occur:
• Cerebrovascular disease and Hemiplegia
• Diabetes and Diabetes with end organ damage
• Mild liver disease and Moderate/severe liver disease
• Any tumour and Metastatic solid tumour
Alternative summary scoring methods may also be used.
Incomplete scores:
From 2019, registration aligns with the Charlson Comorbidity Index. Earlier records may lack complete category data, leading to some misclassification, noted in the relevant variable.
Note: From 1995 to 2014, comorbidities were recorded only in the southern Netherlands. From 2015, coverage is sometimes national but not for all tumour types or years. Missing variables indicate no comorbidities recorded for that tumour.
