^*Country income level was determined by using gross national income per capita, Atlas method (current $) values, and cutoffs from 2013, except for Libya where most recent gross national income per capita was from 2009. Source: World Bank Data by Country.¹⁰

^†China's CCCG and India's ICON are included despite being national rather than international groups based on the size of the population they cover. India is also a member of POEM, but case contribution is included only once (for ICON).

^‡All rates reported on the Web site were converted from cases/100,000 to cases/million. Source: International Agency for Research on Cancer: GLOBOCAN 2012.¹¹

^§Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia are members of GFAOP and POEM; their case contribution is included only once (for POEM). Palestine is reported as “State of Palestine” in GLOBOCAN¹¹ and as “West Bank and Gaza” in World Bank Data.¹⁰
