Objective. To determine the impact of homicide on male life expectancy in Mexico and its 32 states during the three-year periods 1998–2000 and 2008–2010 and the weight of the different age groups in years of life expectancy lost (YLEL) due to this cause.Methods. Based on official death and population data, abridged tables for male mortality in Mexico as a whole and its states were created for the three-year periods studied. Health-adjusted life expectancy and YLEL for men aged 15 to 75 were calculated by selected causes (homicide, diabetes mellitus, and traffic accidents) and age groups in each three-year period.Results. In the years between the 1998–2000 and 2008–2010 periods, YLEL due to homicide increased both nationally and in 19 states. In four states, the YLEL in2008–2010 exceeded two, with the state of Chihuahua standing out at 5.2 years. In 14of the 18 states where health-adjusted life expectancy among men declined between the two three-year periods, the YLEL due to homicide increased. From 2008 to 2010,homicides were the leading cause of YLEL among men aged 20–44. YLEL due to homicide among those aged 15–44 increased between the two three-year periods.Conclusions. The increase in the rate of homicidal violence, especially among young people, is impeding an increase in male life expectancy in Mexico. In several states,such as Chihuahua and Durango, this violence appears to be the main reason for the decline in life expectancy among men aged 15 to 75. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objetivo. Determinar el impacto de la violencia homicida en la esperanza de vida masculina(EVM) de México y sus 32 estados durante los trienios 1998–2000 y 2008–2010, así como elgrado de participación de los diferentes grupos etarios en la pérdida de años de EVM por estacausa.Métodos. A partir de datos oficiales sobre defunciones y población, se construyeron tablasabreviadas de mortalidad masculina para México y sus estados en los trienios estudiados. Secalcularon la esperanza de vida temporaria masculina y los años de esperanza de vida perdidos(AEVP) en el grupo etario de 15 a 75 años, por causas seleccionadas (homicidios, diabetesmellitus y accidentes de transporte) y por grupos de edad en cada trienio.Resultados. Entre 1998–2000 y 2008–2010 se incrementaron los AEVP por homicidio anivel nacional y en 19 estados; en cuatro de ellos, la cifra de AEVP en 2008–2010 superó losdos años, destacándose el caso de Chihuahua, con 5,2 años. De 18 estados donde la esperanzade vida temporaria masculina disminuyó entre los dos trienios, en 14 aumentaron los AEVPpor homicidio. En 2008–2010 los homicidios fueron responsables del mayor porcentaje deAEVP masculinos en el grupo etario de 20 a 44 años. Los AEVP por homicidio en el grupo de15 a 44 años de edad se incrementaron entre ambos trienios.Conclusiones. El aumento de la violencia homicida, especialmente entre los jóvenes, esun freno para el incremento de la esperanza de vida masculina en México. En varios estados,como Chihuahua y Durango, esta violencia parece ser la principal responsable del descenso dela esperanza de vida masculina entre los 15 y 75 años de edad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
