Extended Data Fig. 2: Distribution of disease codes as a function of age in the DNPR (Denmark) database.
From: A deep learning algorithm to predict risk of pancreatic cancer from disease trajectories
Distribution of disease codes for a representative subset of diseases known to contribute to the risk of pancreatic cancer, as a fraction of all pancreatic cancer patients (orange) and all non-cancer patients (blue). The similarity of the distributions for some of these diseases with the distribution of occurrence of pancreatic cancer (red line, Gaussian fit to cancer diagnosis data) is consistent with either a direct or indirect contribution to cancer risk - but not taken as evidence in this work. The disease codes are ICD-10/ICD-8.
