TL;DR: Age-specific and sex-specific all-cause mortality between 1970 and 2016 is estimated for 195 countries and territories and at the subnational level for the five countries with a population greater than 200 million in 2016 to identify countries with higher life expectancy than expected by comparing observed life expectancy to anticipated life expectancy on the basis of development status alone.

TL;DR: Heat illness is associated with the living environment and physical health of the individuals and identifying the vulnerable population and scaling up adaptive practices can strengthen the public health preparedness.

TL;DR: Two temperature thresholds with varying mortality risks provided an opportunity for a graded heat warning system and the accentuation of the deleterious effects of heat by the higher minimum temperature calls for its inclusion in the heatwarning system in future.

TL;DR: The methodical approach provides a robust and thorough procedure for guiding researchers to implement health state valuation studies at community level and can be used universally and cross-culturally for various health states.
