Is young adult excess mortality a natural phenomenon?
Résumé
A temporary increase in the risk of dying during adolescence and early adulthood has been observed in many populations, but no clear explanation for the phenomenon has yet been found. Several recent studies have shed new light on the question, revealing that this excess mortality is not historically universal, tends to mainly affect males, and is largely attributable to violent and accidental deaths.
