Appendix F
Diagnostic Codes Used to Define Health Outcomes
The committee examined the mortality and morbidity experience of Project SHAD (Shipboard Hazard and Defense) veterans and the comparison population using data on cause of death and diagnosis coded in accordance with the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). This appendix provides the ICD codes that correspond to the categories of cause of death or diagnosis used in presenting the results of the analyses. Table F-1 presents the codes for the outcome categories for the analyses that tested the committee’s literature-based hypotheses regarding exposure to substances used in some SHAD tests. Table F-2 and Table F-3 provide the codes that correspond to the categories used in the exploratory analyses of mortality and morbidity.

NOTE: An x in a code indicates that all versions of the code category preceding the x are included. For example, a code shown as 123.x indicates that the category includes instances of outcomes coded as 123.0, 123.1, . . ., or 123.9. An xx entry indicates a two-digit range of codes (e.g., 123.00, 123.01, etc.).
