Individuals with suspected Duke D are assumed to be Duke D. B+ NOS = Duke B or worse not otherwise specified; CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio.
This analysis equates to assuming stage is missing completely at random.
Percentages of disease-free controls matched to cases of the relevant stage.
Corrected for self-selection: 1.00 for all stages, 1.04 up to Duke C or worse, and 1.20 for Duke D.
Duke B or worse always includes those with stage recorded as Duke B+ NOS, but Duke C or worse always excludes them.
