Published: 01 May 1979
...Kenneth G. Manton; Sharon S. Poss Abstract A study is made of the effects of associated causes of death, and of dependency among causes of death, by observing the relative importance of one cause of death when another is eliminated under various competing risk models. Two disease pairs, cancer...

...Kenneth G. Manton; Eric Stallard Abstract An analysis is made of the mortality trends over the period 1968 to 1977 indicated by two types of cause-specific mortality data. The first type of data is “underlying cause” of death data—the data heretofore used in national vital statistics reports...

...Sergi Trias-Llimós; Iñaki Permanyer Abstract Cause-of-death diversity captures the variability of deaths across causes and is an important marker of heterogeneity in a population's health. We contribute to the debate of cause-of-death diversity dynamics by following a novel multiple causes of death...

Fig. 4 Difference in shape between each cause of death and all-cause mortality from ages 10 to 34. For each year from 1959 to 2015, we compute the first differences of the cause-specific forces of mortality and compare each with the all-cause equivalent using the Euclidean distance as a unique

Published: 01 May 1994
...Timothy B. Gage Abstract The trends in 13 cause of death categories are examined with respect to expectation of life, sex differences, and period effects while misclassification of cause of death is controlled. The results suggest that as mortality declines, 1) the increasingly U-shaped age pattern...

...Christine L. Himes Abstract This paper uses a new standard model of adult mortality to compare the mortality patterns of Swedes, Japanese, and U.S. whites between 1950 and 1985. It examines changes in the age patterns of mortality and the cause-of-death structures within the populations...

Specific causes of death were, in the main, also inversely related to education, the most important exceptions being found in the positive relationship between death by reason of prostatic cancer for males and death by reason of mammary cancer for females. Measurement was obtained of “excess deaths...

... life expectancy at birth ( e 0 ). When data are available only for COVID-19 deaths, but not for deaths from other causes, the risks of dying from COVID-19 are typically assumed to be independent of those from other causes. In this research note, we explore the soundness of this assumption using data...
