本研究是在1973年12月1日至1980年12月31日期间对1510人进行的。其中，有1478人(97.9%)是通过问卷进行追踪的。在被追踪的人中，1252人是男性，226人是女性。共有194人死亡，其中160人为男性，34人为女性。死亡的主要原因是心血管、肾脏、呼吸系统、自杀和肿瘤。与1973年的研究相比，死于肾脏疾病的人数明显减少，而死于自杀、肝病和酗酒的人数明显增加。一项对新死亡病例的研究表明，部分截瘫患者的相对死亡率为186%，部分四肢瘫痪患者为209%，完全性截瘫患者为318%，完全性四肢瘫痪患者为767%。将这些比率近似应用于当前(1975-77)死亡率表，可以计算出不同年龄的理论上得出的预期寿命。这表明所有类别的寿命预期都有所改善。
The present study was conducted on 1510 persons between 1 December 1973 and 31 December 1980. Of these, 1478 (97.9 per cent) were traced by questionnaire. Of those traced, 1252 were male and 226 were female. There were 194 deaths of whom 160 were male and 34 female. The main causes of death are cardiovascular, renal, respiratory, suicide and neoplastic. Compared with the 1973 study, there has been a marked decrease in deaths due to renal disease and a marked increase in deaths due to suicide and liver disease and the abuse of alcohol. A study of the new deaths allowed one to note a relative mortality rate to be 186 per cent for partial paraplegics, 209 per cent for partial tetraplegics; 318 per cent for complete paraplegics and 767 per cent for complete quadriplegics. The approximate application of these rates to current (1975-77) mortality tables permitted the calculation of theoretically derived life expectation at various ages. These indicated an improved life expectation for all categories.
