3 Leading causes of death in Israel - summary The publication Leading causes of death, presents trends in mortality rates by cause of death, age, gender and year in the last decade, international comparisons with Europe, Canada and the USA, and follows the methodology of the USA publications on leading causes of death 1. The publication was prepared by the Health Information Division of the Ministry of Health and is a continuation of a series of publications on this subject. The information is based on the notification of death form legally required by the Ministry of the Interior. The coding of death causes is done by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), based on this form and supplementary information from other data sources. This notification of death form includes the immediate cause of death, the train of events that led to this cause, and other significant diseases, conditions or injuries that contributed to death but not directly resulting in previous chain of events. Data is presented here on the underlying cause of death, defined as the cause that initiated the train of events leading to death, or the circumstances of the accident or violence that produced the fatal injury, and chosen by the CBS from the causes written by the doctor on the notification of death form according to definitions and conventions of the International Classification of Diseases. In addition, data is presented on multiple causes of death, which include all causes mentioned on the death notification. Trends In the last decade, rates of death from most causes have been decreasing. Crude total mortality decreased by about a tenth between 2000 and 2012, by 14% for males and 9% for females. Cancer is the leading cause of death from 1999 in both genders, followed by heart disease. For most of the period, , cerebrovascular disease was the third and diabetes the fourth cause. These four causes together accounted for about half of all deaths in 2012 (53% for males, 52% for females), compared to a higher proportion in 2000 (57% for males, 60% for females). The average crude mortality rate for showed a significant decrease compared to of about a third for heart disease (35% for males, 32% for females), and about a quarter for cerebrovascular disease (27% for males, 23% for females) and diabetes (22% for males, 25% for females). Deaths from accidents decreased by about a third for males (35%) and 17% for females. The mortality rate decreased for chronic lower respiratory disease (CLRD) by about a fifth over this period (19% for males, 23% for females). However, an increase in crude mortality rate for compared to was found for other causes. The highest increase was for dementia, which more than doubled, an increase of 111% for males and 116% for females. Other high increases were for mortality due to septicemia (71% for both genders), Alzheimer s disease (57% for males, 78% for females), influenza and pneumonia (13% in males, 25% in females), pneumonitis due to solids and liquids (30% in males, 49% in females). Mortality rates from kidney disease rose till 2006, but were somewhat lower and stable in the following years 1 Leading causes of death in Israel,

5 International Comparison The age adjusted mortality rate in Israel was low in comparison to the USA and most European countries. In 2012, the rate in Israel was 928 per 100,000 population, compared to a similar rate in Italy (923) and lower rates in France (871), Canada (881), Switzerland (882) and Spain (898). In 17 other selected European countries and in the USA, rates were higher. Amongst males, Israel had the lowest mortality rate of all European countries (1,068), with a lower rate only in Canada (1,051), while amongst females, Israel s rates were 5 th lowest in Europe (814), after France (669), Spain (703), Switzerland (739), Italy (755) and also Canada (748).

6 International comparison - Ranking of causes of death Cancer was the leading cause of death in Israel in 2012, and heart disease the second ranking cause, as in the USA, Canada and most West European countries, other than Finland, Germany, Sweden, Austria and Greece where the rank was reversed. The third cause of death in Israel was cerebrovascular disease, as in the average of the 15 Western EU countries, but the 4 th cause was diabetes, which had a similar rank only in Austria, was ranked 5 th in Italy and Portugal, 6 th in Germany and 7 th or higher in the USA, Canada and other European countries. Dementia, recently added to the Eurostat database was amongst the 5 leading causes in several countries, ranking 3 rd in Holland and Canada, 4 th in the USA, UK and Sweden, and 5 th in Norway, Denmark, Germany, Spain and for the 15 EU country average, but only 8 th in Israel. Accidents were the 3 rd ranked cause in the USA and France, and 4 th in the 15 EU countries, while only 8 th in Israel. CLRD were the 3rd cause in the USA, 4 th for the 15 EU countries and 4 th or 5 th for most European countries while only 7 th in Israel. However septicemia, which is an increasing cause in Israel, was ranked 5 th, while it was not amongst the 10 leading causes in most countries.

8 Ranking of leading causes of death in Israel by age On average in , cancer was the leading underlying cause of death for total deaths, and amongst females aged and males over 25. was the leading cause for females over 75, and the second cause for males over 45 and females aged For both genders, accidents were the leading cause for age and the second cause for Suicide was the second cause of death for males aged 15-24, and the 3 rd cause for males aged and females aged All ages: In recent years, about a quarter of all male and female deaths in Israel were from cancer, and a fifth from heart disease. The 3 rd and 4 th causes were cerebrovascular disease and diabetes, whose rates have been similar in recent years, and the following cause was kidney disease. These five leading causes account for about 60% of all deaths in recent years. Age 0-4: In 2012, conditions of the perinatal period (perinatal) and congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (congenital conditions) were the leading causes, followed by accidents. These causes accounted for about 70% of deaths at this age. Age 5-14: Accidents and cancer were the leading causes for boys in 2012, while they had the opposite ranking for girls. For boys the 3 rd cause was congenital conditions, with the same number of deaths as accidents for girls. Age 15-24: In 2012, the external causes of accidents, suicide and homicide were the 3 leading causes for boys. For girls, too, accidents were the leading cause followed by cancer (4 th for boys) and suicide. Age 25-44: Cancer was the leading cause for both genders in 2012, suicide 2 nd and accidents 3 rd for males, with the reverse ranking for females, followed by heart disease 4 th and homicide 5 th for both genders. Amongst males, poisoning with undetermined intent was the next cause, which may be connected with drug abuse. Age 45-74: The 3 leading causes for both genders in 2012 were the same: cancer, heart disease, and diabetes while cerebrovascular disease was the 4 th cause for females aged and males aged Suicide was the 4 th cause for males aged and accidents the 5 th cause, while for females the 5 th cause was CLRD. For ages kidney disease was the 5 th cause for males and septicemia the 6 th with the reverse ranking for females. Age 75 and over: In 2012, cancer was the leading cause for males and heart disease the second, the ranking was reversed for females. Cerebrovascular disease was the 3 rd cause for both genders, kidney disease 4 th for males and diabetes 4 th for females and 5 th for males. ranked 5 th for females and 6 th for males. Dementia, a disease which has increased considerably as underlying cause in recent years, was 6 th for females. 6 Ministry of health, Israel

11 Multiple causes of death Multiple causes of death include all causes mentioned on the death certificate. The ranking of multiple causes differs from that of the underlying cause. On average for the years , the leading cause mentioned most frequently on the notification of death form was heart disease, found in 43% of deaths. Cancer was 2 nd, in 28% of deaths, and septicemia was the 3 rd most frequent, mentioned in 27% of deaths. The 4 th cause was kidney disease for males (mentioned in 20% of their deaths) and hypertension for females (23% of deaths), which was the 5 th cause for males. Diabetes was 5 th in females and 6 th in males, and cerebrovascular disease was 7 th for both genders.
