Notes

Since transition rates represent percentage of changes (net rates), they need to be multiplied by the number of cells of a certain category available for change to calculate the quantity of changes in terms of number of cells (crude rates).

The resulting number of cells (crude rate) is always rounded to the nearest integer value.
