They also measure relative survival using deprivation-specific life tables to estimate background mortality, which helps to guard against artifactual changes in survival inequalities that may arise if inequalities in background mortality are changing over time (Rachet et al, 2009).
The presence of Hemmings - along with other such actors as Michael Caine and Tom Courtenay, who also made their reputations in the new wave British cinema of the 1960s - gave tangible presence to the themes of mortality and changing times.
This study was designed to address how the incidence of PJI and outcome of treatment, including mortality, is changing in the population over time.
Despite the devastating toll of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) on morbidity and mortality, the changing epidemiologic landscape has been largely due to the successful introduction and rollout of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).
Trends in gastroenteritis-associated mortality are changing over time [ 4].
Observation VI relates to the effect on female mortality of changing from DTP to MV vaccination.
Trends in gastroenteritis-associated mortality are changing over time with development of antibiotic resistant strains of certain pathogens, improved diagnostic methods, and changing healthcare.
Predicting risk based on historical and potentially outdated data is risky in populations where lifestyle, medicalisation, morbidity and mortality are changing rapidly.
11 Finally, it should be added that the assessment of whether socioeconomic differences in mortality are changing over time within a country is becoming more challenging.
FP also contributes to a reduction in both maternal and infant mortality by changing the structure of childbearing (age and parity of pregnant women and the time between pregnancies) [ 3, 18].
