Fig 1 Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) standardized mortality rates in The Netherlands per 100,000 from 1980 to The year of standardization is Subgroups are made for rupture and nonrupture in men and women. For each group, a locally weighted regression curve was added for smoothing the variability in measurements.

Fig 3 A, Joinpoint regression analysis of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) mortality rates in The Netherlands per 100,000. Mortality rates are divided in three age groups (55 to 69 years, 70 to 84 years, and ≥85 years). Changes in trend as observed by the Joinpoint software are for age 55 to 69, found in year 1990 and 2003; for age 70 to 84, joinpoints are found in year 1985 and 2003; and for age ≥85, a joinpoint was found in B, Joinpoint regression analysis of nonruptured AAA mortality rates in The Netherlands. Mortality rates are divided in three age groups (55 to 69 years, 70 to 84 years, and ≥85 years). Changes in trend as observed by the Joinpoint software are for age 55 to 69 and 70 to 84 were not found, and for age ≥85 years, joinpoints were found in 1998 and 2002.

Smoking was analyzed for men and women in two age groups: (top) 50 to 64 years and (bottom) ≥60 years. Data were provided by Stivoro, the Dutch expert center for tobacco prevention in The Netherlands. For both groups, a locally weighted regression curve was added for smoothing the variability in measurements.
