  • Global, regional, and national trends in under-5 mortality between 1990 and 2019 with scenario-based projections until 2030

    Open AccessDavid Sharrow, Lucia Hug et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Global Health2022

    BACKGROUND: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), set in 2015 by the UN General Assembly, call for all countries to reach an under-5 mortality rate (U5MR) of at least as low as 25 deaths per 1000 livebirths and a neonatal mortality rate (NMR) of at least as low as 12 deaths per 1000 livebirths by 2030. We estimated levels and trends in under-5 mortality for 195 countries from 1990 to 2019, and conducted scenario-based projections of the U5MR …

  • Probabilistic population projections for countries with generalized HIV/Aids epidemics

    David J Sharrow, David Sharrow et al.ARTICLEPopulation Studies2018Citada por: 2Referências: 33

    In 2015, the United Nations (UN) issued probabilistic population projections for all countries up to 2100, by simulating future levels of total fertility and life expectancy and combining the results using a standard cohort component projection method. For the 40 countries with generalized HIV/AIDS epidemics, the mortality projections used the Spectrum/Estimation and Projection Package (EPP) model, a complex, multistate model designed for short-t…

  • Quantifying Intrinsic and Extrinsic Contributions to Human Longevity

    Open AccessDavid J Sharrow, David Sharrow et al.ARTICLEDemography2016Citada por: 1Referências: 26

    The rise in human life expectancy has involved declines in intrinsic and extrinsic mortality processes associated, respectively, with senescence and environmental challenges. To better understand the factors driving this rise, we apply a two-process vitality model to data from the Human Mortality Database. Model parameters yield intrinsic and extrinsic cumulative survival curves from which we derive intrinsic and extrinsic expected life spans (EL…

  • The INDEPTH standard population for low- and middle-income countries, 2013

    Open AccessOsman Sankoh, David Sharrow et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2014

    Crude rates such as the crude death rate are functions of both the age-specific rates and the age composition of a population. However, differences in the age structure between two populations or two time periods can result in specious differences in the corresponding crude rates making direct comparisons between populations or across time inappropriate. Therefore, when comparing crude rates between populations, it is desirable to eliminate or mi…

  • The age pattern of increases in mortality affected by HIV

    Open AccessDavid Sharrow, Samuel J Clark et al.ARTICLEDemographic Research2013Citada por: 7Referências: 45

    BACKGROUND: We investigate the sex-age-specific changes in the mortality of a prospectively monitored rural population in South Africa. We quantify changes in the age pattern of mortality in a parsimonious way by estimating the eight parameters of the Heligman-Pollard (HP) model of age-specific mortality. In its traditional form this model is difficult to fit and does not account for uncertainty. OBJECTIVE: 1. To quantify changes in the sex-age p…
