The German East-West Mortality Difference: Two Crossovers Driven by Smoking

A comparison of the cohort smoking coefficients obtained using Preston et al.’s (2014:40) second regression equation (left y-axis) and the mean cumulative number of years that each cohort spent as a smoker by the age of 40, based on data averaged over the two SOEP rounds for cohorts fully observed to at least age 50 (above) and age 40 (below). The birth cohorts are in five-year intervals centered on the middle of each cohort. What is noteworthy is that the regression equation was based on cohort lung cancer deaths and did not include self-reported data from the SOEP. The crossover in smoking harm appears earlier for lung cancer than for SOEP data, but because these cohorts have not yet reached the age where lung cancer mortality is highest, the uncertainty in the precise timing of crossover is large. Nevertheless, the broadly similar time trends shown by the two sets of lines gives us confidence in the accuracy of our SOEP data, which we used to project lung cancer up to 2034–2038
