Deaths from Circulatory Disease

This data shows premature deaths (Age under 75) from Circulatory Disease, numbers and rates by gender, as 3-year moving-averages.

Circulatory diseases include heart diseases and stroke, and others. Socio-economic and lifestyle factors are associated with circulatory disease deaths and inequalities in circulatory disease rates. Modifiable risk factors include smoking, excess weight, diet, and physical inactivity.

Directly Age-Standardised Rates (DASR) are shown in the data, where numbers are sufficient, so that death rates can be directly compared between areas. The DASR calculation applies Age-specific rates to a Standard (European) population to cancel out possible effects on crude rates due to different age structures among populations, thus enabling direct comparisons of rates.

A limitation on using mortalities as a proxy for prevalence of health conditions is that mortalities may give an incomplete view of health conditions in an area, as ill-health might not lead to premature death.

本数据集揭示了心血管疾病（包括心脏病和中风等）导致的过早死亡（75岁以下）情况，按性别分类的死亡人数和死亡率，以三年移动平均数呈现。心血管疾病的死亡与社会经济及生活方式因素相关，且心血管疾病死亡率的差异显著。可调节的风险因素包括吸烟、超重、饮食不均衡以及缺乏体育锻炼。当数据足够时，数据中展示了直接年龄标准化率（DASR），这使得不同地区之间的死亡率的直接比较成为可能。DASR的计算方法是将特定年龄组的死亡率应用于标准（欧洲）人口，以消除因人口年龄结构差异对粗死亡率可能产生的影响，从而实现死亡率的直接比较。以死亡率作为健康条件普遍性的替代指标存在局限性，因为死亡率可能无法全面反映某地区健康条件的实际情况，因为疾病不一定导致过早死亡。数据来源：英国国家医疗服务体系数字部（现隶属于英国国家医疗服务体系英格兰部）综合数据库，数据集唯一标识符为P00395。本数据集每年更新一次。
