Life expectancy at birth for men (M) and women (W), 2004-2014, Slovenia (SI) and EU-28 (13).

Age-standardised, cause-specific mortality rates for analysed groups of causes of death (according to ICD-10) for men (M) and women (W) in 1997 and 2014, Slovenia (standard age structure: total population 2014) (19, 20).

Age- and cause-specific decomposition of potential gains in life expectancy (PGLE) at birth e0 (in years) if Slovenian mortality levels are changed to Spanish ones in 2014, by gender_
