On the Mortality of Companies [PDF]
Using data from both the US and UK we examine the survival and mortality of companies in both the early stage or start-up and mature phases. The shape of the mortality curve is broadly similar to that of humans. Even small single cellular organisms such as rotifers have a similar shape.

Mortality Implications of Mortality Plateaus [PDF]
This article aims to describe in a unified framework all plateau-generating random effects models in terms of (i) plausible distributions for the hazard (baseline mortality) and the random effect (unobserved heterogeneity, frailty) as well as (ii) the impact of frailty on the baseline hazard. Mortality plateaus result from multiplicative (proportional)

The effects of lead on infant mortality are identified by variation across cities in water acidity and the types of ...
