Age-cause-specific components of the life expectancy gaps between Russia or Moscow and international comparators in 2014–15

Each panel shows age-cause-specific contributions to the total differences in life expectancy between Russia or Moscow and the countries with the closest average per-capita income. The four upper panels show results of decompositions of the gaps between four countries and Russia in 2014–15 whereas the four bottom panels show similar decompositions for Moscow. Each panel shows vertical bars corresponding to contributions of mortality differences within 5-year age groups to the total life expectancy difference. Coloured parts within each vertical bar correspond to contributions of differences in mortality from selected causes within the age groups to the total life expectancy difference.
