| Indicator Name | Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD between exact ages 30 and 70 (%) |
| Short definition | Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD is the percent of 30-year-old-people who would die before their 70th birthday from any of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory disease, assuming that s/he would experience current mortality rates at every age and s/he would not die from any other cause of death (e.g., injuries or HIV/AIDS). |
| Long definition | Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD is the percent of 30-year-old-people who would die before their 70th birthday from any of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory disease, assuming that s/he would experience current mortality rates at every age and s/he would not die from any other cause of death (e.g., injuries or HIV/AIDS). |

| Statistical concept and methodology | Methodology: The probability of death between the exact ages of 30 and 70 is calculated using cause-specific mortality rates for each 5-year age group, applying standard life table methods. The estimates are derived from the WHO Global Health Estimates (GHE). These estimates represent WHO's best calculations, using standard categories, definitions, and methods to ensure cross-country comparability. They may not align with official national estimates. |
| Limitations and exceptions | Due to changes in input data and methods, the revisions of the data are not comparable to previously published estimates. |
