Notes: Cut-off date for most recent data quality indicators: November 1, 2022. aFinnish MS Registry and Norwegian MS Registry and Biobank did not contribute to DQI 3. bDanish MS Registry and Norwegian MS Registry and Biobank did not contribute to DQI 4 as these data sources did not collect data on lymphocyte counts. cUS Department of Defense did not include patients receiving care in the civilian sector—only those within US Department of Defense treatment facilities (~30% of the source population)—so the results can only be partially evaluated for DQI 4.
