Abstract

Melanoma incidents and mortality data and projections. Data up to 2015 and projections for 2019 and 2021

Melanoma starts in cells called melanocytes. These are the cells that make the melanin that give your skin its colour.

Most melanomas start in areas of the skin that have been overexposed to the sun. But they can also occur rarely in parts of the body that have never been exposed to the sun.

Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer.

Abstract

Water quality incidents from NSW derived from the list of incidents found here https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/environment/water/Pages/drinking-water-quality-and-incidents.aspx. Drinking water quality information Public water supplies in NSW are monitored in line with the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines Water quality information is available from: Sydney Water Corporation Hunter Water Corporation Your local water utility (council) in regional NSW Water supplies in regional NSW are monitored for microbiological and chemical quality through the NSW Health Drinking Water Monitoring Program. NSW Health encourages all public water suppliers to regularly report water quality information to their consumers. Water quality information is also published annually in the NSW Department of Industry Water Supply and Sewerage Performance Monitoring Reports. Water quality incidents Occasionally incidents affect drinking water quality. These may include changing source water conditions such as flooding, operational problems, detection of Escherichia coli bacteria and/or blooms of cyanobacteria (blue green algae). The NSW Health response protocols provide guidance on managing physical, chemical and microbiological quality of drinking water and/or treatment failure. Water suppliers in consultation with their local Public Health Unit may issue a boil water alert or other warnings to protect the health of consumers. Water suppliers are responsible for ensuring that consumers are aware of any warnings regarding the safety of drinking water. This can be achieved using a variety of media such as newspapers, radio and social media. Letter drops, warning signs and direct contact with vulnerable populations may also be required.

Abstract

A compilation of circulatory disease mortality statistics across Local Health Districts (LHDs) within New South Wales (NSW) from 2001-2002 to 2016-2017. Embedded within the NSW_Dept_of_Health project, this dataset presents a detailed overview of mortality due to various circulatory diseases within distinct LHDs. By providing a granular view of health outcomes, it facilitates in-depth analyses of disease prevalence, disparities, and temporal trends.

Abstract

NSW deaths by age range, sex, cause and year from 1999 to 2018. Only NSW residents are included. Deaths are classified using ICD-10 classification and distributed according to ICD-10 chapters. Separate ICD-10 chapters on diseases of the nervous system, eye and ear and chapters on conditions relating to pregnancy, perinatal period and congenital diseases are combined into single categories in the analysis.

Rates were age-adjusted using the Australian population as of 30 June 2001. Counts of deaths for the latest year of data include an estimate of the number of deaths occurring in that year but registered in the next year.

LL/UL 95%CI = lower and upper limits of the 95% confidence interval for the point estimate.

Mortality estimates for years up to 2005 are based on Australian Bureau of Statistics death registration data. Data from 2006 onwards were provided by the Australian Coordinating Registry, Cause of Death Unit Record File; the data for the most 2 recent years are preliminary (SAPHaRI, Centre for Epidemiology and Evidence, NSW Ministry of Health)
