This study describes the inequalities in preventable avoidable mortality in relation to socioeconomic levels and analyses their evolution during the period 1996-2003 in the cities of Alicante, Castellon and Valencia. Four causes of preventable avoidable mortality were analysed according to sex: malignant tumour of the trachea, bronchus and lung, cirrhosis and other chronic diseases of the liver, motor vehicle accidents and AIDS, which had caused the death of non-institutionalised residents in the three cities during the period 1996-2003. The different census tracts were grouped into three socioeconomic levels. In general, socioeconomic inequalities in preventable avoidable mortality remain constant in time, except the ones caused by AIDS in Valencia, where they increase for men. Some census tracts in the three cities where the study was carried out were found to have significantly higher preventable mortality rates, and therefore require intervention.
本研究描述了与社会经济水平相关的可预防可避免死亡率方面的不平等现象，并分析了1996年至2003年期间阿利坎特、卡斯特利翁和巴伦西亚市这些不平等现象的演变情况。根据性别分析了可预防可避免死亡的四个原因：气管、支气管和肺部恶性肿瘤、肝硬化和其他慢性肝病、机动车事故以及艾滋病，这些原因导致了1996年至2003年期间这三个城市非机构化居民的死亡。不同的普查区被分为三个社会经济水平。总体而言，可预防可避免死亡率方面的社会经济不平等在一段时间内保持不变，但巴伦西亚市由艾滋病导致的不平等现象对男性来说有所增加。在开展该研究的三个城市中，发现一些普查区的可预防死亡率显著更高，因此需要进行干预。
