在这篇文章中,我们调查了13年来墨西哥裔美国移民的年龄和死亡率之间的关系,以65岁及以上的墨西哥裔移民为基线,我们使用西班牙裔老年人流行病学研究(H-EPESE)来控制与死亡相关的健康和社会因素。我们的分析表明,移民一代并不代表相同的死亡风险类别。与在童年或中年移民的人相比,成年后移民到美国的人死亡风险要低得多。慢性疾病或功能能力不是这些差异的原因。我们的发现表明,标准风险池可能在遗传和未测量的生命过程因素的基础上存在显著差异。更好地了解晚年移民的死亡率优势对采取更有效和更有针对性的社会和医疗干预措施具有重要意义。
In this paper we investigate the association between age at migration and mortality during a 13-year period in a sample of Mexican American immigrants 65 and older at baseline We employ the Hispanic Established Populations for Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly (H-EPESE) to control for mortality-related health and social factors. Our analyses show that the immigrant generation does not represent a homogeneous mortality risk category. Individuals who migrated to the United States in mature adulthood have a considerably lower risk of death than individuals who migrated in childhood or mid-life. Chronic conditions or functional capacity do not account for these differences. Our findings suggest that standard risk pools may differ significantly on the basis of genetic and unmeasured life-course factors. A better understanding of the late-life immigrant mortality advantage has important implications for more effective and targeted social and medical interventions.
