[Multivariate methods in the analysis of the relationships between mortality and socioeconomic, environmental, and individual behavioral variables].

This study is concerned with the relationships between geographic factors and mortality from external causes, such as environmental pollution, nutrition, and socioeconomic factors. It is based on Italian data on the mortality of adult males aged 25 years and over. The results show that "degenerative diseases, from middle age onwards, are typical sicknesses of the more highly industrialised and richer areas, [particularly] where economic development has not been accompanied by action to preserve the environment from pollution. Diseases which medical and therapeutic progress have rendered almost harmless continue to strike the populations of the poorer areas, where adequate hygienic and sanitary structures are lacking."

[The impact of excess male mortality on sex structure. The Italian case, 1951-1981].

The purpose of this note is to analyze male excess mortality in relation to general mortality trends in a country with low levels of mortality, using Italian data for the period 1951-1981, and to examine the effect of this excess male mortality on the sex distribution of the population. Consideration is given to the apparent paradox whereby "at least during the first half of life, the sex ratio increases when excess male mortality increases. This paradox shows that the index traditionally used for measuring the disadvantage of men with regard to survival, is not the most appropriate one." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)

Estimation of adult mortality from paternal orphanhood: a reassessment and a new approach.

"This article proposes a new procedure for estimating men's mortality from paternal orphanhood which generally yields more accurate results than the existing approach. A procedure for estimating mortality from maternal orphanhood data based on consistent assumptions is also presented. The theory underlying these methods is outlined.... The article also points out an error made in the tabulation of the weighting factors used until now to estimate mortality from paternal orphanhood. Investigations using simulated data are presented which support the theoretical arguments that suggest that the paternal orphanhood method is more robust than has often been assumed and which confirm that the new approach usually produces more accurate estimates than the weighting factors."

[Some predictions of possible changes in the mortality of Bulgarian men by the year 2000].

"Dynamic sequences of general mortality rates of Bulgarian men for the period 1964-1991 are represented. Trends are evaluated by the statistical significance of linear regression coefficients of every sequence. Trends of mortality rates by [social] classes...are also represented. It is found...that the general mortality of Bulgarian men as well as their mortality from practically all leading causes had significantly increased during the period.... Based on these trends, the author foresees that today's regimen of male mortality in Bulgaria most probably will remain unchanged at least till the end of the current century...."
