AGE-ADJUSTED MORTALITY RATES OF NEOPLASTIC AND CIRCULATORY DISEASES AND THEIR DEMOGRAPHIC FACTORS IN SLOVAK REGIONS DURING 1996-2013

摘要

Aim: Knowledge of the causes of deaths in Slovakia is lacking. This is significant because diet and lifestyle factors are different in central Europe compared to Western, Northern and Southern Europe. This study aims to discern trends of age-adjusted mortality rates caused by various diseases in relation to demographic factors.
