: a. Deaths coded to "Symptoms, signs and ill-defined conditions" (780–799 in ICD-9 and R00–R99 in ICD-10) are distributed proportionately to all causes within Group I and Group II.
: b. Cancer deaths coded to ICD categories for malignant neoplasms of other and unspecified sites including those whose point of origin cannot be determined, and secondary and unspecified neoplasms (ICD-10 C76, C80, C97 or ICD-9 195, 199) were redistributed pro rata across the footnoted malignant neoplasm categories within each age-sex group, so that the category "Other malignant neoplasms" includes only malignant neoplasms of other specified sites.
: c. Ischemic heart disease deaths may be miscoded to a number of so-called cardiovascular "garbage" codes. These include heart failure, ventricular dysrhythmias, generalized atherosclerosis, and ill-defined descriptions and complications of heart disease. Proportions of deaths coded to these causes were redistributed to ischemic heart disease as described by Lozano and others (2001). Relevant ICD-9 codes are 427.1, 427.4, 427.5, 428, 429.0, 429.1, 429.2, 429.9, 440.9; relevant ICD-10 codes are I47.2, I49.0, I46, I50, I51.4, I51.5, I51.6, I51.9, I70.9.
: d. Injury deaths where the intent is not determined (E980–989 of ICD-9 and Y10–Y34, Y872 in ICD-10) are distributed proportionately to all causes below the group level for injuries.
: e. For countries with three-digit ICD-10 data, use: V01–V04, V06, V09–V80, V87, V89, V99.
