The calculated incidence or mortality rate is then called World Standardized incidence or mortality rate.

The calculated incidence or mortality rate is then called age-standardized incidence or mortality rate (world).

Background: The standardised mortality ratio (SMR) for

Mortality rate and standardized mortality ratio (SMR)

However, the age-standardized mortality rate for suicide decreased by 32.7% (27.2% to 36.6%) worldwide between 1990 and 2016, similar to the decline in the global age-standardized mortality rate of 30.6%.

Causes of death - standardised death rate, 2013 (per 100 000 inhabitants).

Over an average of 28 years, the standardised death rate for suicide reduced on average by 0.81% annually.

The standardised death rate is the death rate adjusted for standard age distribution, which eradicates the pyramid effects resulting from ages varying from one country to another.

Over an average of 28 years, the standardised death rate for suicide reduced on average by 0.81% annually.

Age-adjusted mortality rates were slightly higher for whites and for males.

After the first visit to the emergency department, 10.9% died (35 663 deaths, standardized mortality rate 36.2 per 1000 person-years).

The standardised mortality ratio was 3.6 in the early onset cohort and 2.8 in the late onset cohort.
