Global, regional, and national life expectancy, all-cause mortality, and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes of death, 1980–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015
Abstract: SummaryBackgroundImproving survival and extending the longevity of life for all populations requires timely, robust evidence on local mortality levels and trends. The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study (GBD 2015) provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015. These results informed an in-depth investigation of observed and expected mortality patterns based on sociodemographic measures.MethodsWe estimated all-caus…

“…In addition, the CVD risk could have been increased by lifestyle diseases including high blood glucose, hypertension, and obesity which tend to be more prevalent in women in this study. Our study indicated that increasing age increases the 10-year risk of fatal CVD in both men and women, this is in line with a previous report where CHD, a major CVD, increased with increasing age in women and men, and even more common in individuals older than 50 years [ 24 ]. In another study, men had almost doubled the 10-year risk for CVD compared to women at both baseline and 1-year follow-up [ 28 ].…”

Our study indicated that increasing age increases the 10-year risk of fatal CVD in both men and women, this is in line with a previous report where CHD, a major CVD, increases with increasing age in both genders, and even more common in individuals older than 50 years [24]. In another study, men had almost doubled the 10-year risk for CVD compared to women at both baseline and 1-year follow-up [28].…”

“…The results of this study are in line with the findings of previous national and international studies and reports in Iran and the world (4,(24)(25)(26)). An increasing trend of liver cancer mortality has been reported in the United States, Japan, Australia, Scotland, France, and Italy, while a decreasing trend has been observed in the United Kingdom in both sexes (24,27).…”
