Provisional data released by the National Records of Scotland showed that the life expectancy in Glasgow is the lowest in Scotland for both men and women, with country-wide levels also seeing a drop.
Life expectancy in Glasgow is the lowest in Scotland for both men and women as the country's figures dropped to roughly the same values they stood at a decade ago.
The data also suggested large differences in life expectancy at birth depending on what council area people live in. Male life expectancy in Glasgow City was placed at 72.9 years, while men born in East Dunbartonshire and East Renfrewshire have a life expectancy of 79.9 years - a difference of seven years.
Those highs followed six periods of fluctuation for life expectancy during which the highest it reached was 77.10 for men in 2013-2015 and 81.15 for women in 2014-2016.
