    01.1.1 Tuberculosis

    01.1.1.1 Pulmonary tuberculosis

    01.1.1.2 Extrapulmonary TB

    01.1.1.2.01 Pleura (isolated, without lungs involvement)

    01.1.1.2.02 Lymphatic intrathoracic (isolated, without lungs involvement)

    01.1.1.2.03 Lymphatic extrathoracic

    01.1.1.2.04 Pericardia

    01.1.1.2.05 Spine

    01.1.1.2.06 Bone/joints other than spine

    01.1.1.2.07 Meningitis

    01.1.1.2.08 CNS other than meningitis

    01.1.1.2.09 Genito-urinary tract

    01.1.1.2.10 Peritoneal/digestive

    01.1.1.2.11 TB with poly-organ failure/ TB sepsis

    01.1.1.3 Disseminated tuberculosis

    01.1.1.3.01 Lungs

    01.1.1.3.02 Miliary

    01.1.1.3.03 Pleura

    01.1.1.3.04 Lymphatic intrathoracic

    01.1.1.3.05 Lymphatic extrathoracic

    01.1.1.3.06 Pericardia

    01.1.1.3.07 Spine

    01.1.1.3.08 Bone/joints other than spine

    Hi Erik

    Are this TB-HIV study specific values documented somewhere in an official release? The coding table currently includes all codes described in ​Review Form 2.2. The TB-HIV study specific values are not documented there.

    I have discussed this with Bruno and we think it would be better to keep the coding table 100% CoDe compliant. To include the TB-HIV additions, we could add another "Additional Codes" table. Do you have some kind of document we could refer to?

    If it is planned in the future to include the TB-HIV codes into the CoDe standard, we could also directly include it in the main table.

    Any suggestions, comments on this?

    Best Jens

    Hello Bruno and Jens,

    We have only just started using these codes in the EuroCoord WP 13: HIVTB

    They are not an official part of the CoDe system documentation yet.

    I think it would be a good idea to have them as 'optional' coding or the like as in event types in CEP table that is only relevant to Childrens cohorts. Perhaps we can make these codes usable only in TB cohorts?

    Best Regards, Rikke

    Hello again,

    In DAD we have started using an additional couple of codes regarding HCV and HBV related deaths:

    03.1 = HCV

    03.1.1 = HCV with cirrhosis

    03.1.2 = HCV with liver failure

    03.1.3 = HCV with liver cancer

    03.2 = HBV

    03.2.1 = HBF with cirrhosis

    03.2.2 = HBV with liver failure

    03.2.3 = HBV with liver cancer

    Best Regards, Rikke

    Dear all

    The points 03.1.3 and 03.2.3 have been added to the coding table of DEATH_R1 in tblLTFU.

    Best regards Feodor
