YPLL (Years of potential life cost) can be defined as the scale of evaluating the relative effect of health associated events on a population. It is used to index the misplacement of anticipated years of life, due to untimely death in the population. For age-specific data, it is calculated by the following formula:

    <div class=answer> YPLL (Years of potential life cost) can be defined as the scale of evaluating the relative effect of health associated events on a population. It is used to index the misplacement of anticipated years of life, due to untimely death in the population. For age-specific data, it is calculated by the following formula:    Endpoint is a predetermined value, and taken as 65 years. It is regarded as the average life expectancy of the population. Age group midpoint is calculated, by using the following formula:   YPLL rate can be calculated by using the following formula:

Endpoint is a predetermined value, and taken as 65 years. It is regarded as the average life expectancy of the population. Age group midpoint is calculated, by using the following formula:
