March 2011 online edition

The March 2011 online issue of Health Reports contains two articles.

The first article, "Potential years of life lost at ages 25 to 74 among Status Indians, 1991 to 2001", presents estimates of potential years of life lost at ages 25 to 74 for Status Indians living on or off reserve, identifies the causes of death for which disparities between Status Indians and non-Aboriginal Canadians were greatest, and examines the effects of socio-economic factors on those differences.

The second article, "Potential years of life lost at ages 25 to 74 among Métis and non-Status Indians, 1991 to 2001", examines potential years of life lost at ages 25 to 74 by cause of death among Métis and non-Status Indians, compared with non-Aboriginal adults, and assesses the influence of socio-economic factors on disparities in premature mortality.
