DESCRIPTION
The present study looks at around 2,200 such areas, corresponding to municipalities or groups of municipalities throughout Spain. The results will provide the first body of information in Spain on time changes in mortality indicators. They will also allow hypotheses to be elaborated about the causes of death, and aid in the planning of healthcare polices.
