When the concordance relates one category on the left to only part of a category on the right, this partial relationship is denoted by an asterisk (*) against the code on the right.
The asterisk marked category will reappear in the table against all the other categories on the left to which it also partially relates.
Whenever an asterisk appears, there is an explanatory note. The note specifies the particular piece of the right-hand side category that is accounted for by the category on the left-hand side. In some cases, for brevity, the note begins with the word "except". In those cases, the note is to be interpreted as indicating that all of the contents of the right-hand side category are accounted for by the left-hand side category, except for the particular piece that is specified, which is accounted for by one or more other left-hand side categories.
