Supplementary notes

*Figures are based on all-listed diagnoses. Excludes hospital stays for newborns. **In addition to hospitalization resulting from self-inflicted injuries, assaults, and maltreatment, the any violence category includes approximately 3,000 hospitalizations resulting from legal interventions and acts of terrorism and war. ***The types of violence categories are not mutually exclusive, because each record can have more than one violence-related cause of injury code.
