Barcelona: Disease-Specific Mortality

The INEQ-CITIES Project examined the geographical segregation of mortality in Barcelona by specific causes of death, separately for men and women.  For each cause of death, the Atlas provides two maps to display the smoothed Standardised Mortality Ratio(s) (sSMRs) and the Probability that the sSMR is Higher than 100.

Causes of death were established from the Mortality Registry of Catalonia, according to the International Classification of Diseases, editions 9 - 10.  The following causes of death were selected for analysis if they occurred in at least 30 percent of small areas in Barcelona during the study period.  To view the disease-specific mortality maps in Barcelona, please visit the Atlas pages below.  Please click on any disease-specific map in the Atlas for a full-screen version.
