Sammanfattning
The populations of Finland and the three Scandinavian countries have experienced relatively marked differences regarding trends in mortality rates since the Second World War. To assess factors that might contribute to these differences, a cohort analysis was performed based upon vital statistics for the age category 45 years to 89 years, from the four countries, for the period 1966-86.
