本文通过探讨两个问题来阐明老年人群死亡率和发病率之间的关系。死亡率和发病率随时间的变化方式相同吗？在高龄阶段，死亡率和发病率的年龄模式相似吗？我们发现死亡率和发病率不一定以相同的方式变化，而且死亡率和发病率的年龄模式也不相同。造成这种情况的因素包括人群的异质性和选择性、死亡率和发病率的潜在原因，以及导致死亡率和发病率变化的机制。（C）2001爱思唯尔科学公司。版权所有。
This paper clarifies the relationship between mortality and morbidity in older human populations by addressing two questions. Do mortality and morbidity change over time in the same way? Are the age patterns of mortality and morbidity similar at the oldest ages? We find that the mortality and morbidity do not necessarily change in the same way and that the age patterns of mortality and morbidity are not the same. Factors responsible for this include population heterogeneity and selectivity, the underlying causes of mortality and morbidity, and the mechanisms causing change in mortality and morbidity.
