There are several advantages to using THIN prevalence data compared with the national survey data.
For all regions, THIN prevalence data were generally found to be highly comparable with GLF data from 2006 onwards.
The GLF covers England, Wales and Scotland only; therefore, the validation of the regional THIN prevalence data did not include data from Northern Ireland.

As the population thinned, virus prevalence dropped, Shuttleworth and colleagues reported in 2014 in Biological Invasions.
In THIN and Pedianet prevalence rates were also higher in children below the age of 4, whereas for other databases prevalence rates were steadily increasing with age and peak at the age of 18.
We used longitudinal patient data from seven databases (GePaRD, IPCI, OSSIFF, Pedianet, PHARMO, SISR, and THIN) to calculate prevalence rates of NSAID use among children (0 18 years of age) from Germany, Italy, Netherlands, and United Kingdom.
We therefore carried out a validation study comparing estimates of regional smoking prevalence from THIN with those from the GLF to assess whether THIN data can be used to monitor regional variation and trends in smoking prevalence.
Subjects were given 5 mL of thin liquid, and the prevalence of aspiration in each group was compared.
Moderate sensory deficits only appear to influence the prevalence of thin liquid aspiration in the presence of pharyngeal motor dysfunction.
Figure 1 shows the comparison of THIN and GLF smoking prevalence data by region from 2000 to 2008.
These results show that estimates of regional smoking prevalence from THIN are highly comparable to the corresponding estimates from the current main source of such data.
