The World Health Organization (WHO)'s excess mortality estimates presented in May 2022 stirred controversy, due in part to the high estimate provided for Germany, which was later attributed to the spl...
A negative binomial model was used accounting for long-term change, seasonality, flu seasons, and heat waves. Simulated mortality curves from this model were then analysed using simple methods (mean, ...
The performance of the WHO's method with its original parametrization was indeed very poor, however it can be profoundly improved by a better choice of parameters. The Acosta-Irizarry method outperfor...
Splines are not inherently unsuitable for predicting baseline mortality, but caution should be taken. In particular, the results suggest that the key issue is that the splines should not be too flexib...
In California, wildfire risk and severity have grown substantially in the last several decades. Research has characterized extensive adverse health impacts from exposure to wildfire-attributable fine ...
To analyze mortality trends in Switzerland in 2021, the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic....
Using data from the Swiss Federal Statistical Office, we compared mortality in Switzerland in 2021 with that of previous years in terms of standardized weekly deaths, standardized (annual) mortality r...
After a favorable first half of the year and a fairly standard second half in terms of mortality in Switzerland, the year 2021 ended with a wave of deaths of moderate intensity related to the 5th wave...
The second year of the COVID-19 pandemic in Switzerland was characterized by an approximate return to pre-pandemic mortality levels, with a faster recovery for women than for men with respect to 2020....
Many recent studies show that Europe has had a lower mortality inequality for most ages than the United States over the last thirty years. However, the evolution of the income gradient in mortality al...
Environmental risks accumulate in cities, including polluted air and health disparities, but these risks can be reduced through scientific city planning. The purpose of this study was to investigate t...
An approach based on health impact assessment was used to estimate the premature mortality burdens associated with NO...
Worldwide, 549,715(95%CI: 276204-815,023) cases of death attributable to NO...
The findings of this study provided a comprehensive understanding of the premature mortality burden due to NO...
Several studies have tried to analyse the association between all-cause mortality and different risk factors, (especially those which are modifiable, such as smoking, diet or exercise), to develop pub...
To study the historical global incidence and mortality trends of gastric cancer and predicted mortality of gastric cancer by 2035....
Incidence data were retrieved from the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) volumes I-XI, and mortality data were obtained from the latest update of the World Health Organization (WHO) mortality ...
More than 1,089,000 new cases of gastric cancer and 769,000 related deaths were reported in 2020. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in the incidence of gastric cancer from 2003 to 2012 among th...
In the past decade, the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer have shown a decreasing trend; however, there are still some countries showing an increasing trend, especially among populations young...
(Excess) mortality and years of life lost are important measures of health risks from the Corona pandemic. The aim of this paper was to identify methodological factors that affect the calculation of m...
Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) can be used to compare mortalities (e. g., an SMR of 1.015 means excess mortality of 1.5%, an SMR of 0.990 means that mortality is reduced by 1.0%). In this study,...
Using January 2022 data from the Federal Statistical Office on mortality for 5-year age groups resulted in higher SMR values than using preliminary data from February 2021 with 20-year age groups (SMR...
When calculating mortality and years of life lost during the pandemic, a number of methodological assumptions must be made that have a significant impact on the results and must be considered when int...
Although the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) is widely recommended to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause death, there are significant differences in physiological and nutritional facto...
In a prospective study of 39,567 U.S. adults (51.2% female, age 46.8 ± 17.6 years), we examined sex-specific, multivariable-adjusted associations of HEI with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular dis...
During 328,403 person-years of follow-up, a total of 4754 all-cause deaths were recorded, including 1481 cardiovascular deaths. Compared to the lowest quartile of HEI, the all-cause mortality rate of ...
In the adult population of the U.S., there are more opportunities for females to reduce the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality from the same dose of healthy dietary intake than m...
Mortality forecasts are essential part for policymaking in any aging society. In recent years, methods to model and forecast mortality have improved considerably. Among them, Lee-Carter method is one ...
