Resumen :
Ethical considerations: due to the characteristics of this observational
study based on administrative retrospective data, in Spain this research
needs not be approved by an ethics committee because it meets the
requirements of the Spanish data protection law, and does not pose ethical
problems because the researchers have only had access to anonymous
data without any identification of the individuals. The anonymous
databases were constructed by authorised staff from the Mortality
Register of the Valencian Community for cases, and by authorised staff
from the SIP for controls, according Spanish data protection law. The
addresses were geocoded in geographic coordinates by the authors. Due
to the fact that the databases were anonymous and the large scale of the
study area, it was not possible to identify a person from the geocoding
process or in the results of this study, thus protecting confidentiality.
The Mortality Register and the SIP Register of the Valencian
Community are not publicly available and both are subject to statistical
confidentiality. However, some institutions like Alicante University are
authorised to request and use anonymous databases for research purposes
