The highest incidence rate, exceeding region-wide, was installed in the Mingachevir for both males (641.00/0000) and for females (1079.40/0000). The highest mortality rate was found in males, where the total mortality rate for males was 83.40/0000, and for females ― 35.00/0000. The maximum value of the standardized indicator by age is for both males and females in the age group 50-59 years (33,90/0000 and 38,20/0000 respectively).
