Footnotes:

a Rates are per 100,000 per year. Deaths are for the entire United States over the time period 2011-2015.

b Top 5 cancer sites were determined based on the 2011-2015 age-specific rate.

c US Mortality Files, National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

d ONS = Other Nervous System. IBD = Intrahepatic Bile Duct.

e The rates for sex-specific cancer sites are calculated using the population for both sexes combined.

- Statistic not shown. Rate based on less than 16 cases for the time interval.
