Comparison of sensitivity and specificity of OUD algorithm and ICD codes from the main analysis to that from the sensitivity analyses
| Main analyses | Exclude iteration 1 | OUD only where both reviewers agreea | OUD only if at least four DSM criteria were met | ||

Abbreviations: Se – sensitivity; Sp – specificity; OUD – opioid use disorder; ICD – international classification of diseases; DSM – Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
– This applies only to cases where two reviewers reviewed a case – if both reviewers considered the case to be OUD then the case was considered to be OUD; if one reviewer considered the case to be OUD and another didn’t, OR both reviewers considered the case to be non-OUD, then the case was considered to be non-OUD; if only one reviewer reviewed the case, then that reviewer’s adjudication was considered as it is.
