- Coefficients for income inequality in Model 0 mean that e.g. absolute income inequality increased by 75.3 US$ per year
- Coefficients for the annual trend in Model 1 mean that e.g. absolute differences in total mortality decreased by 4.95 deaths per 100.000 per year
- Coefficients for the annual trend in Model 2 mean that e.g. absolute differences in total mortality decreased by 5.08 deaths per 100.000 per year if the trend in income inequality is added to the model
- Coefficients for income inequality in Model 2 mean that one-unit increase in income inequality leads to, e.g., a 0.02 unit decrease in inequality in total mortality. Statistically significant results are printed in bold, significance levels are *:p < 0.1; **:p < 0.05; ***:p < 0.01
- Belgium was excluded from the cause-specific analysis because data was not available. Slovenia was excluded from the analysis of external causes because data was not available
