Note: The deaths of AD: The deaths of AD over 40 years old. Crude Mortality: death cases from AD divided by surveillance population over 40+years old; Standardized mortality: age and gender adjusted using the 2000 China Census Population, and all rates are presented as number of annual deaths /100,000 person 40+ years old; A soil horizon is the soil concentration in the eluvial horizon, C soil horizon is the soil concentration in the parent material horizon, Total soil horizon is the soil concentration in the eluvial horizon plus the soil concentration in the parent material horizon.
