Multivariable flexible modelling for estimating complete, smoothed life tables for sub-national populations
The flexible Poisson model is recommended because it derives robust and unbiased estimates for sub-populations without making strong assumptions about age-specific mortality profiles. Fixing knots a priori in the final model greatly improves fit at the young ages
Socio-economic inequalities in cancer survival in England after the NHS cancer plan
Objectives Socio-economic inequalities in survival have been reported for most adult cancers in England. The NHS Cancer Plan (2000) aimed to improve cancer patient survival, and tackle inequalities in survival between people from deprived and affluent backgrounds. Recent observations suggest some improvements in survival have accelerated since implementation of the Cancer Plan. This study investigates the efficacy of the Cancer Plan in tackling i…
Home-delivered meals programs for the elderly
This study examined the ability of six countywide home-delivered meals programs in upstate New York to meet the challenge of serving the elderly in geographically isolated and impoverished regions. The six counties were divided geographically into county subdivisions. For each subdivision, program client levels were analyzed in relation to two subdivision-level census statistics: poverty rates and population densities for community-residing indiv…
