Note: The underlying cause of death is the condition giving rise to the chain of events leading to death. Between January 1, 1979 and December 31, 1998, the underlying causes of death were classified in accordance with the Ninth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9), a coding structure developed by the Word Health Organization (WHO). Starting January 1, 1999, causes of death were classified using the Tenth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10). Because the underlying cause of death is classified differently between revisions, health statistics based on one revision are not directly comparible to the other revision without the use of the comparability ratio.
