Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary Age-cause-specific mortality rates by gender, race, and educational attainment for the United States in 1990, 2000, and 2010. The rates were derived from vital statistics and census data (and, in 2010, the American Community Survey).

The data include age-specific mortality rates in 5-year intervals starting from 25 to 90+ for nine major causes of death (infectious & parasitic diseases, neoplasms, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, external causes of death, smoking-related diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, and all other causes) among non-Hispanic whites and blacks. Educational categories are coded in completed years of schooling (0-11, 12, 13-15, and 16+). All missing cases were imputed. Cause of death groupings are based on ICD9 and ICD10 codes. For additional information and documentation see accompanying papers.
