Notes: Death frequencies include deaths by age interval among all children who were born in Michigan and whose mother was a resident at the time of the child's birth. This enables the calculation of mortality rates among these children that are comparable with simliar rates for children with birth defects. Tripple dashes (---) indicate category not applicable.
