Details

New 2021 mortality data has been added to the liver disease profile.

This update includes new data for 5 indicators in the liver disease profile:

• mortality from liver disease in persons, males and females aged under 75
• mortality from alcohol-related liver disease in persons, males and females aged under 75
• mortality from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in persons aged under 75
• mortality from hepatitis B related end-stage liver disease or hepatocellular carcinoma in persons aged under 75
• mortality from hepatitis C related end-stage liver disease or hepatocellular carcinoma in persons aged under 75

Liver disease is one of the main causes of premature mortality nationally. The profiles are designed to support local areas by providing data in a user-friendly format to allow them to assess the effect of liver disease in their areas and take action to prevent it.

Data is presented by county and unitary authority (upper tier local authority), integrated care board, former government office region and England. Districts and unitary authority (lower tier local authority) level data is also presented, where available.
