Notes:
1) El ratio representa el n£mero de veces que una causa aparece como causa b sica por cada 100 veces que ha sido informada  en los certificados m‚dicos de defunci¢n, es decir, como causa m£ltiple

 Debido a que a partir del a¤o 2013 se ha tenido acceso a los datos del Instituto Anat¢mico Forense de Madrid, se  ha introducido una mejora metodol¢gica en el proceso de esta estad¡stica, que ha permitido asignar de forma m s  precisa la causa de defunci¢n en las muertes con intervenci¢n judicial. Como consecuencia, defunciones que estaban  asignadas a causas mal definidas han sido reasignadas a causas externas espec¡ficas. Por lo tanto, este hecho debe  ser tenido en cuenta a la hora de realizar comparaciones con a¤os anteriores.
