Notes: These are estimated proportions of causes of death obtained from models with input data from available Vital Registration data and population-based studies (for detailed methods and list of references please refer to Liu et al, Lancet 212). These estimates are not necessarily the same as those from the Member State, which may use alternative methods of estimation of causes of death. All Member Sates have undergone an official country consultation on the CHERG etsimation (documents available upon request).
