Description: Compute the standard expected years of life lost (YLL), as
        developed by the Global Burden of Disease Study (Murray, C.J.,
        Lopez, A.D. and World Health Organization, 1996). The YLL is
        based on comparing the age of death to an external standard
        life expectancy curve. It also computes the average YLL, which
        highlights premature causes of death and brings attention to
        preventable deaths (Aragon et al., 2008).
