Notes:
- The country listed in this table is that which finished on top of the medal table, which was determined based on total gold medals, then silver, then bronze.
- In 1998, 2010 and 2020, the team that officially finished second on the medal table would have ranked first if the standings had been based on total medals won rather than gold medals, as some alternative tables calculate.
- In 1976, Switzerland tied with West Germany with 10 gold medals, though they had fewer total medals.
