Demographic and epidemiologic changes that have occurred in the last five decades in many developing countries and that are characterized by major growth in the number and proportion of middle-aged and elderly persons and in the frequency of the diseases that occur in these age groups. The health transition is the result of efforts to improve maternal and child health via primary care and outreach services and such efforts have been responsible for a decrease in the birth rate; reduced maternal mortality; improved preventive services; reduced infant mortality, and the increased life expectancy that defines the transition. (From Ann Intern Med 1992 Mar 15;116(6):499-504)

The personal cost of acute or chronic disease. The cost to the patient may be an economic, social, or psychological cost or personal loss to self, family, or immediate community. The cost of illness may be reflected in absenteeism, productivity, response to treatment, peace of mind, or QUALITY OF LIFE. It differs from HEALTH CARE COSTS, meaning the societal cost of providing services related to the delivery of health care, rather than personal impact on individuals.

Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care.

The expiry date of man: a synthesis of evolutionary biology and public health. (1/1743)

In industrialised countries, mortality and morbidity are dominated by age related chronic degenerative diseases. The health and health care needs of future populations will be heavily determined by these conditions of old age. Two opposite scenarios of future morbidity exist: morbidity might decrease ("compress"), because life span is limited, and the incidence of disease is postponed. Or morbidity might increase ("expand"), because death is delayed more than disease incidence. Optimality theory in evolutionary biology explains senescence as a by product of an optimised life history. The theory clarifies how senescence is timed by the competing needs for reproduction and survival, and why this leads to a generalised deterioration of many functions at many levels. As death and disease are not independent, future morbidity will depend on duration and severity of the process of senescence, partly determined by health care, palliating the disease severity but increasing the disease duration by postponing death. Even if morbidity might be compressed, health care needs will surely expand. (+info)

Prediction of life expectancy in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension. A retrospective nationwide survey from 1980-1990. (2/1743)

Primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) is a progressive disease of unknown etiology usually followed by death within 5 years after diagnosis. Although heart-lung or lung transplantation is now offered to patients with advanced PPH, adequate criteria assessing an accurate prediction of life expectancy in PPH has been difficult to establish. The aims of this study were to identify the characteristic features associated with a poor prognosis in patients with PPH, and to attempt to establish an individual prognostic index that predicts with great accuracy survival or death of PPH after one year, thereby helping to define criteria for patient selection for transplantation. In 1991, a retrospective nation-wide survey on PPH was conducted in Japan, and the clinical and cardiorespiratory variables of 223 PPH cases (female; 144, male; 79) in the period from 1980-1990 were obtained. The mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PPA) was 57.5+/-17.2 mm Hg (mean+/-SD), and the overall median survival time was 32.5 months since the first diagnostic catheterization. The characteristic features of 61 patients who died within one year of catheterization (Nonsurvivors group) were compared to 141 patients who survived one year or more from the time of catheterization (Survivors group). Among several clinical and cardiorespiratory variables, heart rate, PPA, right atrial pressure (PRA), stroke volume index (SI), pulmonary vascular resistance, and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) were significantly different between the two groups. As the independent factors, PPA, PRA, SI, and PaCO2 were selected for the multiple logistic analysis. Using a 0.7 probability cut-point to separate Nonsurvivors from Survivors, 84.6% of Nonsurvivors and Survivors could be correctly predicted from this logistic regression equation. Predictive equations like the present preliminary one can be used in the future to better assess life expectancy in patients with PPH in whom transplantation will be considered. (+info)

Lack of inhibitory effects of the Ju-myo protein on development of glutathione S-transferase placental form-positive foci in the male F344 rat liver. (3/1743)

The effects of the 77 kDa Ju-myo protein, isolated from Drosophila melanogaster, on the development of glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P) positive foci in the male F344 rat liver were evaluated using a medium-term bioassay system. No modifying potential was evident in terms of the numbers or areas of GST-P positive foci. Ju-myo protein did not exert any influence on cell proliferation, as reflected by ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) or spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SAT) activity and BrdU labeling. These results demonstrated that Ju-myo protein is unlikely to have inhibitory or promoting effects on rat liver carcinogenesis. (+info)

Impact of market value on human mate choice decisions. (4/1743)

Mate choice strategies are a process of negotiation in which individuals make bids that are constrained by their status in the market place. Humans provide an unusual perspective on this because we can measure their explicitly expressed preferences before they are forced to make any choices. We use advertisements placed in newspaper personal columns to examine, first, the extent to which evolutionary considerations affect the level of competition (or market value) during the reproductively active period of people's lives and, second, the extent to which market value influences individual's willingness to make strong demands of prospective mates. We show that female market value is determined principally by women's fecundity (and, to a lesser extent, reproductive value), while male market value is determined by men's earning potential and the risk of future pairbond termination (the conjoint probability that the male will either die or divorce his partner during the next 20 years). We then show that these selection preferences strongly influence the levels of demands that men and women make of prospective partners (although older males tend to overestimate their market value).

Light on population health status. (5/1743)

A new approach to illustrating and analysing health status is presented which allows comparisons of various aspects of health in a population at different times and in different populations during given periods. Both quantitative and qualitative elements can be represented, the impact of interventions can be monitored, and the extent to which objectives are achieved can be assessed. The practical application of the approach is demonstrated with reference to the health profiles to Tunisia in 1966 and 1994. (+info)

Health expectancy indicators. (6/1743)

An outline is presented of progress in the development of health expectancy indicators, which are growing in importance as a means of assessing the health status of populations and determining public health priorities. (+info)

Survival of healthy older people. (7/1743)

The purpose of this study was to discover any relationships which might exist between measurable variables recorded when a healthy group of men and women, aged 70 years and over, were examined and their subsequent survival time. It was found that height, body weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, haemoglobin, hand grip power, cardiothoracic ratio, and pulse rate are of no predictive value in the estimation of survival time. Survival is not influenced by marital status or occupational class. For both sexes the degree of kyphosis and age are useful predictive criteria in respect of survival time. However, much research work requires to be done to explain why many people die at the time they do. (+info)

Does over-the-counter nicotine replacement therapy improve smokers' life expectancy? (8/1743)

OBJECTIVE: To determine the public health benefits of making nicotine replacement therapy available without prescription, in terms of number of quitters and life expectancy. DESIGN: A decision-analytic model was developed to compare the policy of over-the-counter (OTC) availability of nicotine replacement therapy with that of prescription ([symbol: see text]) availability for the adult smoking population in the United States. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Long-term (six-month) quit rates, life expectancy, and smoking attributable mortality (SAM) rates. RESULTS: OTC availability of nicotine replacement therapy would result in 91,151 additional successful quitters over a six-month period, and a cumulative total of approximately 1.7 million additional quitters over 25 years. All-cause SAM would decrease by 348 deaths per year and 2940 deaths per year at six months and five years, respectively. Relative to [symbol: see text] nicotine replacement therapy availability, OTC availability would result in an average gain in life expectancy across the entire adult smoking population of 0.196 years per smoker. In sensitivity analyses, the benefits of OTC availability were evident across a wide range of changes in baseline parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with [symbol: see text] availability of nicotine replacement therapy, OTC availability would result in more successful quitters, fewer smoking-attributable deaths, and increased life expectancy for current smokers.

Period LEB is the mean length of life of a hypothetical cohort assumed to be exposed, from birth through death, to the mortality rates observed at a given year. (wikipedia.org)
In populations with high infant mortality rates, LEB is highly sensitive to the rate of death in the first few years of life. (wikipedia.org)
Mathematically, life expectancy is the mean number of years of life remaining at a given age, assuming age-specific mortality rates remain at their most recently measured levels. (wikipedia.org)
The notion of healthy life expectancy is similar to that of total life expectancy, but refers to the mean number of years that someone of a given age can expect to live with health, given that the morbidity and mortality rates prevail for that specific age. (scielosp.org)
Projections of future mortality and life expectancy are needed to plan for health and social services and pensions. (faculti.net)

Thus, total life expectancy consists of the amount of years lived (from birth or a given age onward) in different states of health, until death, where the years lived with health provide the healthy life expectancy 2 . (scielosp.org)

Biomarkers for example COX2, antigen p27, MIB1, VEGF and glycoprotein 90K may have an impact on life expectancy. (mesothelioma-support.org)

Life expectancy is a statistical measure of the average time an organism is expected to live, based on the year of its birth, its current age and other demographic factors including gender. (wikipedia.org)
The most commonly used measure of life expectancy is at birth (LEB), which can be defined in two ways. (wikipedia.org)
Cohort LEB is the mean length of life of an actual birth cohort (all individuals born a given year) and can be computed only for cohorts born many decades ago, so that all their members have died. (wikipedia.org)
[6] Theoretical study shows that the maximum life expectancy at birth is limited by the human life characteristic value δ, which is around 104 years. (wikipedia.org)
Life expectancy at birth topped 80 years in 16 countries, an increase of three from 2003. (japantimes.co.jp)
Some decreases in life expectancy at birth have been seen in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland whilst in England life expectancy has remained unchanged from 2014 to 2016. (thesun.co.uk)
National life expectancies are recorded by stats organisations like the ONS, who also keep tabs on national birth and death rates. (thesun.co.uk)
At birth, the number of expected years of life without and with activity limitation was 70.8 and 8.4, respectively, in males and 74.2 and 11.8 in females. (go.jp)
The objective of this ecological study was to ascertain the effects of physical environment on life expectancy at birth, using data from all 32 Mexican states. (scielosp.org)
Using OLS regressions, FC2, FC3, and FC4 were found to be positively associated with life expectancy at birth, while FC1 was negatively associated. (scielosp.org)
Between 1995 and 2014, the increase in black life expectancy at birth was more than double the white increase: a gain of 6.0 years from 69.6 years to 75.6 years for black people compared with a gain of 2.5 years from 76.5 years to 79.0 for white people. (breastcancer-news.com)

This qualitative interview study with 40 community-dwelling older adults explored their perspectives on how and when to discuss life expectancy in primary care. (jabfm.org)
Most participants did not want to discuss life expectancy longer than 1 year but were open to being offered discussion by clinicians. (jabfm.org)
3 A few studies involving older adults not at the end of life assessed whether older adults wanted to discuss life expectancy but not how or when they want the communication to occur. (jabfm.org)
7 Here, we focus on questions that asked older adults whether they want to discuss life expectancy in the range of years with their primary care clinicians, when they want to have such discussions, whether they preferred qualitative or quantitative information about life expectancy, and suggestions for approaching these discussions. (jabfm.org)

Although older adults have varied preferences for the timing and content of life expectancy discussions in primary care, it was generally acceptable for clinicians to offer the opportunity for this type of discussion. (jabfm.org)
Research and clinical-practice guidelines recommend incorporating life expectancy in the range of years to inform decisions such as cancer screening and glycemic goal in diabetes mellitus treatment for older adults. (jabfm.org)

Although disability-free life expectancy has been investigated in Japan, gains from elimination of diseases and injuries have not been examined. (go.jp)
In recent decades the U.S. black population has experienced substantial gains in life expectancy, now becoming closer to the life expectancy of the white population," wrote Fuchs, Stanford's Henry J. Kaiser professor emeritus. (breastcancer-news.com)

Wilkinson 1 and Lynch et al 2 produce widely differing estimates of the relation between absolute income and life expectancy in developed, or more affluent, societies. (bmj.com)
They also point out that GDP and life expectancy estimates vary according to the data source. (bmj.com)
This leads to slightly different estimates of life expectancy, but should not materially affect the results here. (bmj.com)
Estimates of healthy life expectancy have been used to meet the demand for information on the amount of years lived with health. (scielosp.org)

What is average life expectancy in the UK for men and women and where in the world can you expect to live longest? (thesun.co.uk)
But the UK is still higher than America, where female average life expectancy is 81.3 years. (thesun.co.uk)
This large centenarian population is largely responsible for the very high average life expectancy in Japan (currently listed by the World Bank as 82.6 years, more than four years greater than the US average of 78.4 years (this is including dead voters in Chicago)), as well as any senior citizens under 100 who are actually dead but have not been reported as such on government records. (wattsupwiththat.com)
This distortion in Japan's real average life expectancy is a great example of how a large body of statistics can be spoiled by poor record keeping or outright fraud. (wattsupwiththat.com)

Although life expectancy has increased for all in the region, between 2004 and 2012, the gender gap has widened from four years, with men facing an average life expectancy of 46 years while women faced an average life expectancy of 50, to now more than 9 years with an average life expectancy of 55 years for men, as opposed to a life expectancy of 64 years for women. (sciencespeaksblog.org)

Just as there are various definitions for health, there are different ways of measuring healthy life expectancy, such self-perceived health, the consequence of diseases, functional disability, and the notion of physical, mental, or social well-being 3 . (scielosp.org)

Longevity , maximum lifespan, and life expectancy are not synonyms. (wikipedia.org)

Eight years later, life expectancy of men in rural KwaZulu Natal, South Africa continues to lag behind that of women with the gap widened by differences in access to, and uptake of antiretroviral treatment, Barnighausen said. (sciencespeaksblog.org)
Fixing their lens on changes in black-white life expectancy differences between 1999 and 2013, researchers arrived at a narrowing of 2.3 years (from 5.9 to 3.6 years). (breastcancer-news.com)

in the hypothetical population above, life expectancy at 5 would be another 65. (wikipedia.org)
Aggregate population measures, such as the proportion of the population in various age groups, should also be used along individual-based measures like formal life expectancy when analyzing population structure and dynamics. (wikipedia.org)
Longevity refers to the characteristics of the relatively long life span of some members of a population. (wikipedia.org)
The slowdown in increased life expectancy began in 2011 say the ONS, with a range of factors suggested - including an ageing population, complex health issues and cuts to NHS and social care funding. (thesun.co.uk)
In one of the poorest regions of the world with two-thirds unemployment, Barnighausen and his colleagues studied 90,000 people using life expectancy as the summary statistic for the ultimate population benefit of antiretroviral therapy. (sciencespeaksblog.org)

Elimination of diseases and injuries increased expected years with and without activity limitation among Japanese, which suggests that improved prevention of those diseases and injuries-including cerebrovascular diseases and dementia-would result in longer disability-free life expectancy and fewer years of severe disability. (go.jp)

The term " maximum life span " has a quite different meaning and is more related to longevity. (wikipedia.org)
For older men, longevity increased, disability was postponed, and the percentage of remaining life spent active increased. (urban.org)
However, for older women, small longevity increases were accompanied by smaller postponements in disability and stagnation of active life as a percentage of life expectancy. (urban.org)

As it emerges that UK's life expectancy stalled in 2017 for the first time since records began, we give you the lowdown on how long you can expect to be around for. (thesun.co.uk)
Across the UK as a whole, life expectancy did not improve at all between 2015 and 2017 - remaining at 79.2 years for men and 82.9 years for women. (thesun.co.uk)
Responding to the figures Sophie Sanders from the ONS' Centre for Ageing and Demography said: 'The slowdown in life expectancy improvements in the UK has continued, as 2015 to 2017 saw the lowest improvements in life expectancy since the start of the series in 1980 to 1982. (thesun.co.uk)

Major advances in life expectancy that bring blacks closer to whites is a significant contribution to its solution," he wrote. (breastcancer-news.com)

Among the 34 states with GDP over $10 000 the correlation with life expectancy is 0.47, slightly lower than that reported by Lynch et al . (bmj.com)

Wilkinson argues that the non-OECD countries are poorer and that there is a different relation between GDP and life expectancy among poorer countries. (bmj.com)

As a consequence, older women no longer live more active years than men, despite living longer lives. (urban.org)
The Office for National Statistics puts UK life expectancy at 79.2 years for men and 82.9 years for women. (thesun.co.uk)
Why is life expectancy different for men and women? (thesun.co.uk)
In addition, men over 98 and women over 103 are not factored into life expectancy calculations. (wattsupwiththat.com)
This is explained, mainly, by the fact that Funding: CC was supported by the Ministry of women have longer life expectancies than men. (deepdyve.com)

Life expectancy is defined statistically as the mean number of years remaining for an individual or a group of people at a given age. (wikipedia.org)
NOTE: Even if persons over 100 aren't counted in life expectancy statistics, as is claimed later in the article, the problem doesn't just begin at age 100, it is clear that whatever problems are at the root of these errors, they extend to a large number of people below age 100 who are also dead but are listed as alive on government records. (wattsupwiththat.com)

The aim of the present study was to estimate disability-free life expectancy for the Brazilian elderly in 2003, by gender and age, based on different concepts of functional disability. (scielosp.org)
The Sullivan method is used to combine the period life tables from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE, 2003) and the prevalence of functional disability according to the 2003 National Sample Household Survey (PNAD 2003). (scielosp.org)

GENEVA - Japan continued to top the list in life expectancy in 2004 at an average age of 82, the World Health Organization said in an annual report released Friday. (japantimes.co.jp)
Therefore, there is an increasing interest in investigating whether the years added to life expectancy for these elderly are lived in adequate health conditions. (scielosp.org)
BOSTON, MASS. - When antiretroviral treatment finally came to rural South Africa, it led to one of the fastest life expectancy recoveries in public health history. (sciencespeaksblog.org)
But, addressing the high black-white ratio for deaths due to homicide, Fuchs wrote that public health measures, such as gun control, will likely have a bigger effect on the reduction of the black-white life-expectancy gap than medical care. (breastcancer-news.com)
