What the numbers say
In 2021, Bosnia and Herzegovina's mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD between exact ages 30 and 70 (%) fell 0.7 percentage points on 2020 (from 17.9% to 17.2%).
Across the 20 yearly changes before that (2001 to 2020), the average change was −0.19 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 0.53 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.0 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 1 percentage points in 2007 and the biggest yearly fall was 1.3 percentage points in 2020. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2012 to 2021 the straight-line trend is downward, about 0.13 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 40% of the movement over 10 observed years.

What this measures
Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD is the percent of 30-year-old-people who would die before their 70th birthday from any of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory disease, assuming that s/he would experience current mortality rates at every age and s/he would not die from any other cause of death (e.g., injuries or HIV/AIDS).
Limitations: Due to changes in input data and methods, the revisions of the data are not comparable to previously published estimates.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
