  • Title: [Youth mortality in the community of Madrid].
    Author: Genova Maleras R.
    Journal: Bol Asoc Demogr Hist; 1996; 14(2):115-49. PubMed ID: 12321152.
    Abstract:
    "The mortality of the Autonomous Community of Madrid has remarkably improved [in] the last decades. However, the evolution of the young ages (15-39) is radically opposed to this general trend, getting worse during the 80s and 90s. Young mortality is at the present the main problem of public health in Madrid, both by its resistance to change and by the great number of potential years of life lost and [the] socioeconomic implications. In this paper we identify the three main causes of death: accidents, AIDS and drugs; we comment [on] some methodological problems for their study and we analyze their evolution by age and sex."
