  1. * these numbers refer to either the single diagnosis, or to cases with the relevant MSD as main diagnosis but with possibly other co-diagnoses (multiple diagnoses); ** in case of a cell entry "--", there were too small case numbers (<5) for analyzing the data without violating the data protection act; therefore mean outpatient and inpatient treatment costs for a single diagnosis could not be derived for all ICD-10 codes included in this analysis.
