Specificity (%) for 5 methods for 21 child causes. Figure 8 shows the median specificity for each method (except King-Lu which does not provide individual cause of death assignments) for 21 child causes. Cells are shaded from red (low specificity) to green (high specificity) to help identify the relative differences between specificities across methods and causes.
