这篇文章显示了45岁及以上的妇女和男子的死亡率和发病率模式的不同。计算了选定的风险因素和慢性病对无残疾预期寿命的影响：低收入，低教育，异常体重指数，缺乏体力活动，吸烟，癌症，糖尿病和关节炎。对于每个因素，使用多状态生命表计算男性和女性的预期无残疾年数。就无残疾预期寿命而言，对受影响妇女影响最大的是糖尿病（14.1年）、关节炎（8.8年）和缺乏身体活动（6.0年），而对受影响男子影响最大的是糖尿病（10.5年）和吸烟。(6.9关节炎（6.5年）和癌症（6.4年）。这些结果的影响进行了讨论，从发展计划的角度，旨在改善人口健康状况。(C)出版社：The Haworth Press，Inc.

This article shows how mortality and morbidity patterns differ for women and men 45 years of age and older. The impact on disability-free life expectancy was calculated for selected risk factors and chronic conditions: low income, low education, abnormal body mass index, lack of physical activity, smoking, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis. For each factor, the expected number of years free of disability was calculated for men and women using multi-state life tables. In terms of disability-free life expectancy, the greatest impacts on affected women were for diabetes (14.1 years), arthritis (8.8 years), and physical inactivity (6.0 years), while for affected men, the greatest impacts were for diabetes (10.5 years), smoking. (6.9 years), arthritis (6.5 years), and cancer (6.4 years). The implications of these results are discussed from the perspective of developing programs designed to improve population health status.
