  1. NB: The national average NMR was 36.7 deaths per 1000 live births in 2010 (using births in the 5 preceding years) and 25.0 in 2016.; For PAR and PAF the reference are the most advantaged subgroups (least burdened) (richest, secondary school and above, urban, female, region with lowest NMR such as Bujumbura in 2010 and Ruyigi in 2016); For Difference and Ratio the reference was the subgroup with highest value (highest NMR)
