  1. 1 Total screening cohort includes all cases and controls from the subpopulation with known screening status, including cases with unknown disease stage and these women’s controls
  2. 2 Sub-grouped screening cohort includes only cases from the total screening cohort with a known disease stage and these women’s controls
  3. 3 Screening attendance is defined as a screening sample taken more than 90 days prior to index date
  4. * Comparison between total cases vs. total controls, low-stage cases vs. low-stage controls, and high-stage cases vs. high-stage controls. χ²-test with 0.05 significance level
  5. ** Comparisons between low-stage cases vs. high-stage cases. χ²-test with 0.05 significance level
  6. * Comparison between cases vs. controls. P < 0.05
  7. ** Comparisons between low-stage cases vs. high-stage cases. P < 0.05
