aCalculated from reported age-specific prevalence rates.

bDefined as estimated glomerular filtration rate 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 or less using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation and/or persistent albuminuria [19].

cDefined using a number of data sources and methods, including regional incidence data and mortality data [17].

dDefined using self-report of NCD diagnosis based on ‘ever having had,’ validated against a diagnosis algorithm and symptoms questions [18].
