The global landscape of bladder cancer incidence and mortality in 2020 and projections to 2040

Journal of Global Health, 2023
Background Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the most common urological malignancies worldwide. This study examines the global epidemiological profile of BCa incidence and mortality in 2020 and the projected burden to 2040.

Identifiability in Age/Period/Cohort Mortality Models [PDF]

, 2020
The addition of a set of cohort parameters to a mortality model can generate complex identifiability issues due to the collinearity between the dimensions of age, period and cohort.

Simulation-based estimates and projections of global, regional and country-level maternal mortality by cause, 1990–2050

Nature Medicine, 2023
Maternal mortality is a major global health challenge. Although progress has been made globally in reducing maternal deaths, measurement remains challenging given the many causes and frequent underreporting of maternal deaths.

Global trends in colorectal cancer mortality: projections to the year 2035

International Journal of Cancer, 2019
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide and the fourth most common cause of cancer death. Predictions of the future burden of the disease inform health planners and raise awareness of the need for cancer control action.

Projections of heatwave-attributable mortality under climate change and future population scenarios in China

The Lancet Regional Health - Western Pacific, 2022
Summary Background In China, most previous projections of heat-related mortality have been based on modeling studies using global climate models (GCMs), which can help to elucidate the risks of extreme heat events in a changing climate.

Projections of future coronary heart disease and stroke mortality in Japan until 2040: a Bayesian age-period-cohort analysis

The Lancet Regional Health - Western Pacific, 2022
Summary Background We aimed to estimate the future burden of coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke mortalities by sex and all 47 prefectures of Japan until 2040 while accounting for effects of age, period, and cohort and integrating them to be at the ...

Mortality Projection Based on the Wang Transform [PDF]

ASTIN Bulletin, 2007
A new method for analysing and projecting mortality is proposed and examined. The method takes observed time series of survival probabilities, finds the corresponding z-scores in the standard normal distribution and forecasts the z-scores. The z-scores appear to follow a common simple linear progression in time and hence forecasting is straightforward.
