I. Progress in the leading causes of death -- II. Life expectancy and premature death -- III. Focus on the top five leading causes of death -- IV. Other leading causes of death -- V. Key contributors to the nation’s health.

This report offers practical dashboards that highlight America’s recent progress in combatting the leading causes of death and key risk and protective factors impacting our nation’s health. Progress for each indicator was assessed based on year-to-year (trend) data and the annualized percent change, though only baseline and the most current data are reported in the tables. Indicators with fewer than three data points were not assessed for progress.
