Twenty-Year Mortality Trends in Patients with Kidney Disease in Poland with the Use of the Years of Life Lost Measure, 2000-2019.

Due to the significant socioeconomic burden of kidney diseases, we decided to analyse years of life lost (YLLs) from this cause in Poland between the years 2000 and 2019. The standard expected years of life lost (SEYLL) measure was used to calculate the number of YLLs, the value of which was related to the size of the study population and calculated per 100,000 persons (SEYLLp). A time trend analysis was performed using the Joinpoint regression method.

Years of life lost due to alcohol-related mortality: A nationwide population study in Poland, 1999-2017.

Background: The aim of this study was to assess alcohol-related mortality and years of life lost (YLL) in Poland between 1999 and 2017.

Methods: A database of 7,168,765 death certificates of Polish residents who died in 1999-2017 was reviewed. This number included 112,512 people who had died due to alcohol consumption.

Years of life lost due to viral hepatitis in Poland, 2000-2014.

Introduction: Viral hepatitis often affects young people; it therefore seems reasonable to analyze the phenomenon of premature mortality due to this reason, using Years of Life Lost (YLLs) measurement.

Objective: The aim of the study was to analyze YLLs due to viral hepatitis in Poland in 2000-2014. For the years 2002 and 2011, socio-economic variables (marital status, level of education, working status, place of residence) were included.

Years of life lost due to malignant neoplasms of the digestive system in Poland during 10 years of socioeconomic transformation.

The aim of the study was to analyse years of life lost due to selected malignant neoplasms of the digestive system (colorectum, stomach, and pancreas) in Poland, a post-communist country in Central Europe, according to socioeconomic variables: sex, age, level of education, marital status, working status, and place of residence. The study included a dataset comprising death certificates of Polish citizens from 2002 (N = 359 486) and 2011 (N = 375 501). The data on deaths caused by malignant neoplasms of the digestive system, that is, coded as C15-C26 according to International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision, was analyzed.

Years of life lost due to diseases of the digestive system in Poland according to socioeconomic factors: a cross-sectional study.

Objectives: To analyse years of life lost (YLLs) due to digestive diseases in Poland according to: marital status, education, working status and place of residence.

Design: A cross-sectional study.

Setting: The study was based on a dataset containing information from death certificates of Poles who died in 2002 and in 2011.

Years of Life Lost due to Diseases of the Digestive System in Poland in 2000-2014.

Background And Aims: Diseases of the digestive system substantially contribute to premature mortality of the Polish population. Years of Life Lost (YLLs) are more and more commonly used in order to evaluate social and economic aspects of these deaths. The aim of the study was to analyse YLLs due to diseases of the digestive system in Poland between 2000-2014.

Years of life lost due to malignant neoplasms of the digestive system in Poland in the years 2000-2014.

Background: Every fourth death that occurs in Poland is caused by a malignant neoplasm. A particularly negative epidemiological situation relates to colorectal cancers; in 2015 they constituted the fifth most important cause of years of life lost (YLL) in Poland.

Objective: We aimed to analyse YLL due to malignant neoplasms of the digestive system in Poland in between 2000 and 2014.

Lost life years due to premature mortality caused by diseases of the respiratory system.

Background: In Poland, as in most other European countries, diseases of the respiratory system are the 4th leading cause of mortality; they are responsible for about 8% of all deaths in the European Union (EU) annually. To assess the socio-economic aspects of mortality, it has become increasingly common to apply potential measures rather than conventionally used ratios.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyze years of life lost due to premature deaths caused by diseases of the respiratory system in Poland from 1999 to 2013.
