Educational inequalities in cardiovascular mortality in Spanish regions (2016-2021)
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death in low-mortality countries, but subpopulation level differences exist. This study assesses educational inequalities in CVD mortality by sex in Spanish regions (2016-2021). Age-standardised mortality rates by sex, region and education were estimated using individual-level mortality data from individuals aged ≥35 years residing in Spain provided by the Spanish National Statistics Institut…
All-cause and cause-specific mortality attributable to educational inequalities in Spain
Educational inequality remains a major public health challenge; its population-level impact on mortality is higher compared to the impact of smoking. Public health interventions addressing gender-specific social determinants of inequalities in health have a great potential for reducing mortality
Multi-Morbidity at Death and the US Disadvantage in Mortality
The US experiences significant excess mortality compared to peer countries. The literature indicates that a similar disadvantage affects morbidity and, more generally, the prevalence of risk factors for major diseases within the US population. In this study, we assess the impact of multi-morbidity at death on the mortality gap between the US and three other high-income countries with comparable data, namely France, Italy, and Spain. The study rel…
Componentes generacionales y socioeconómicos de la discapacidad entre los mayores españoles
Este artículo analiza dos posibles condicionantes de la discapacidad entre los mayores españoles (edades 65-89) residentes en hogares: su adscripción generacional y su estatus socioeconómico. Se utilizan microdatos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de España con los que se construye un indicador de discapacidad en escala continua a partir de la autonomía declarada para la realización de actividades cotidianas. Se aplican modelos de regresión linea…
Alcohol‐related mortality in four European countries
Age and cause-of-death contributions to educational inequalities in life expectancy and lifespan variation in a low-mortality country
Whereas behavioural causes are more important in explaining educational inequalities in mortality among men, ageing-related causes of death seem more important among women. Attempts at narrowing socioeconomic gaps in mortality may benefit from applying gender-specific preventive policy measures
Cause-of-Death Diversity From a Multiple-Cause Perspective in the United States
Cause-of-death diversity captures the variability of deaths across causes and is an important marker of heterogeneity in a population's health. We contribute to the debate of cause-of-death diversity dynamics by following a novel multiple causes of death (MCOD) approach and applying it to the U.S. context between 2003 and 2018 and across education groups. Results show that cause-of-death diversity increased over this period, especially up to 2012…
Frailty at death
Notable cross-country differences were found in the prevalence and the type of frailty-related symptoms at death even after adjusting for differential age distributions
Population-level risks of alcohol consumption by amount, geography, age, sex, and year
BACKGROUND: The health risks associated with moderate alcohol consumption continue to be debated. Small amounts of alcohol might lower the risk of some health outcomes but increase the risk of others, suggesting that the overall risk depends, in part, on background disease rates, which vary by region, age, sex, and year. METHODS: For this analysis, we constructed burden-weighted dose-response relative risk curves across 22 health outcomes to esti…

Socioeconomic inequalities in physiological risk biomarkers and the role of lifestyles among Russians aged 35-69 years
Notable differences in risk biomarkers inequalities were observed according to the SEP measure employed. Clear educational inequalities in raised physiological risk biomarkers levels, particularly in blood pressure and C-reactive protein were seen in Russia and are partly explained by lifestyle factors, particularly obesity among women. These findings provide evidence-based information on the need for tackling health inequalities in the Russian p…
Global age-sex-specific fertility, mortality, healthy life expectancy (Hale), and population estimates in 204 countries and territories, 1950–2019
BACKGROUND: Accurate and up-to-date assessment of demographic metrics is crucial for understanding a wide range of social, economic, and public health issues that affect populations worldwide. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 produced updated and comprehensive demographic assessments of the key indicators of fertility, mortality, migration, and population for 204 countries and territories and selected sub…
Past and Future Alcohol-Attributable Mortality in Europe
Although alcohol consumption is an important public health issue in Europe, estimates of future alcohol-attributable mortality for European countries are rare, and only apply to the short-term future. We project (age-specific) alcohol-attributable mortality up to 2060 in 26 European countries, after a careful assessment of past trends. For this purpose we used population-level country-, sex-, age- (20-84) and year-specific (1990-2016) alcohol-att…
Population age structure only partially explains the large number of Covid-19 deaths at the oldest ages
To date, any attention paid to the age shape of COVID-19 deaths has been mostly in relation to understanding the differences in case fatality rates between countries
