The calculation is the number of deaths among persons of a certain age group in a year x multiplier. The multiplier is usually a large multiple of a hundred, usually 100, 1000, 10 000, 100 000 or 1 000 000.

How is crude death rate different from age specific death rate?

Age-adjusted rates (R′) are used to compare relative mortality risks among groups and over time. They were computed by the direct method---that is, by applying age-specific death rates to the U.S. standard population age distribution .

What is the difference between statistical age standardisation and age-gender standardisation?

Whereas age-standardization adjusts for underlying differences in the age distribution of the combined male-female population, age/sex-standardized rates adjust for differences in the population distribution by both age and sex simultaneously.Age/sex-standardized rates are NOT the same as sex-specific age-adjusted rates.Like age, sex has a powerful influence on disease rates. Males and females have markedly different incidence, prevalence, and mortality rates for certain diseases and males have a shorter life expectancy than females.Therefore, in order to fully account for these differences, researchers may want to adjust for both age and sex when making comparisons for some conditions.The calculation for age/sex adjustment differs from age-standardization in that the individual age-specific rates are stratified by sex and are applied to the standard population stratified by sex.The requirements for the calculation of age/sex standardized rates are:Study population by age and sexStandard population by age and sexNumber of events for males and females in the study populationFormulaei(f) is the number of events for females in age group iei(m) is the number of events for males in age group ipi(f) is the number of females in age group i the study populationpi(m) is the number of males in age group i the study populationPi(f) is the number of females in age group i in the Standard populationPi(m) is the number of males in age group i in the Standard populationFor each age stratum the expected number of events is the sum of the expected number of events for males plus the expected number of events for females in that stratumAge-specific expected events= Ei=[(ei(m) /pi(m) ) *Pi(m) ] + [ (ei(f) /pi(f) ) *Pi(f) ]The age/sex Standardized Rate (per 100 000) is the sum of all expected events divided by the total standard population= [ Sum(Ei)/Sum(Pi)] * 1000

What is difference between crude rate and specific rates?

Crude rates are rates calculated and applied for the entire population disregarding any categories such as gender or age. E.g. crude birth rate calculates the total number of births in a year over the total population including men, women and all children (provided they were not born that year).Specific rates are rates calculated considering categories or subgroups. E.g. birth rate calculates the total number of births in a year over the total number of women of child-bearing age.


Why did the population grow slowly for the human population?

Birthrates, Death Rates, and the age structure of a population help predict why some countries have high growth rates while other countries grow more slowly.
