*Some hospitalisations were for multiple conditions; thus, totals with any of the four major NCDs were less than the sum of single NCDs.
†The numbers of ENMDs in 2011 are anomalously low; the reason for this is not known.
CSD, circulatory system disease; ENMD, endocrine nutritional and metabolic diseases; MI, myocardial infarction; NCD, non-communicable disease.
