Abstract

This data shows the number of premature deaths (which are deaths before age 75) in England between 2003 and 2018, and the number of premature deaths that can be attributed to socioeconomic inequality. We calculated the number of attributable deaths by: (1) calculating mortality rates by age group, sex, year, and Index of Multiple Deprivation decile, for 32,844 small areas (Lower Layer Super Output Areas) across England; (2) applying mortality rates in the least deprived decile nationally to the rest of the population, to calculate a number of 'expected' deaths; (3) calculating the 'attributable' number of premature deaths as the difference between the observed and expected number of deaths. The data is disaggregated by age, sex, deprivation, cause of death and local authority. The local authority data can be explored using an interactive map: https://public.tableau.com/profile/rob.aldridge#!/vizhome/MATI_19_11_25/MATI_dashboard More detail is available in the published article: Lewer D, Jayatunga W, Aldridge RW, Edge C, Marmot M, Story A, Hayward A.
