Modeling structure and country-specific heterogeneity in misclassification matrices of verbal autopsy-based cause of death classifiers

open access: yesThe Annals of Applied Statistics
Verbal autopsy (VA) algorithms are routinely used to determine individual-level causes of death (COD) in many low-and-middle-income countries, which are then aggregated to derive population-level cause-specific mortality fractions (CSMF), essential to informing public health policies. However, VA algorithms frequently misclassify COD and introduce bias

Trends in mean age at death by major causes in Japan standardized in terms of age structure of population.

open access: yesNippon Eiseigaku Zasshi (Japanese Journal of Hygiene), 1985
A method for calculating the mean age at death, standardized in terms of age structure of the population, was demonstrated. The epidemiological implication of mean age at death (crude and standardized) was studied, using Vital Statistics between 1955 and 1980 in Japan, in comparison with life expectancy and age-adjusted death rates.Crude mean age at ...
