The comparability between classification schemes for this particular cause of death is lower (1.23), meaning that caution should be taken in drawing specific inferences from comparisons of mortality statistics over time.

Note: The manner in which underlying cause of death is coded and classified was revised in 1999 to reflect changing medical opinion and practice. The comparability between classification schemes for this particular cause of death is lower (1.23), meaning that caution should be taken in drawing specific inferences from comparisons of mortality statistics over time.

Note:	Rates are based on age-specific death rates per 100,000 population in specified group. Computed by the direct method, using as the standard population the age distribution of the total population of the United States as projected for the year 2000. The true rate lies between the lower and upper bounds of the interval with 95% statistical confidence. 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 World Health Organization. Starting January 1, 1999, causes of death were classified using the Tenth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10). With each revision there are differences in classifying the underlying cause of death. Therefore, health statistics based on one revision are not directly comparable to the other revision without the use of comparability ratios. Before 1999, Kidney Disease deaths were classified with ICD-9 codes 580-589. Starting in 1999, Kidney Disease deaths were classified using ICD-10 codes N00-N07,N17-N19,N25-N27.
