Mortality Detail File: External Cause Extract, 1968-1978, 1979-1980 (ICPSR 8224)

Released/updated on: 2006-01-12

Geographic coverage: United States

The Mortality Detail File: External Cause Extract is a special subset of data prepared from the MORTALITY DETAIL FILES, 1968-1991 (ICPSR 7632). Due to changes in Cause of Death definitions incorporated in the INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASES, NINTH REVISION (ICD-9), the 1968-1978 data files differ slightly from the 1979-1980 data files. The 1968-1978 data reflect cause of death codes of the INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASES ADAPTED FOR USE IN THE UNITED STATES, EIGHTH REVISION (ICDA-8). The period immediately following (1979-80) utilizes ICD-9 cause of death codes. In addition to the differences in the Cause of Death codes and recodes, the 1979-1980 data include three variables not available in the 1968-1978 datasets. These are: mortality by marital status, state or country of birth, and place of death and status of decedent when death occurred in a hospital or medical center. With these exceptions, the data are similar in structure and content to the 1968-1978 data and provide detailed personal and geographic information such as month and day of death, decedent's race and gender, age of deceased at time of death, place of decedent's residence (specific to the city level), place of death (specific to the county level), and whether an autopsy was performed. The 1979-1980 files also contain new variables pertinent to criminal justice research: handgun versus other gun accidents, handgun versus other firearm suicides, handgun versus other firearm homicides, and drug poison versus other poison homicides.

National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey II: Mortality Study, 1992 (ICPSR 2631)

Released/updated on: 2006-03-30

Geographic coverage: United States

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey II: Mortality Study, 1992 (NH2MS) followed a subset of the participants in the second National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES II). The NH2MS cohort is comprised of adult respondents to the NHANES II who were 30-75 years of age at the time of the NHANES II, and who were interviewed and examined for NHANES II. Some participants who were 74 years of age during their interview turned 75 years old between their interview and the examination. The NHANES series of data collections included standardized physical examinations, laboratory tests, and interviews that covered various health-related topics. The NH2MS was designed to investigate the association between factors measured at baseline and overall mortality or death from specific causes. The NH2MS involved searching national databases containing information about mortality and causes of death. The study was entirely passive: participants were not recontacted, nor were all death certificates obtained. Instead, mortality status was ascertained solely by computerized matching to national databases and evaluation of the resulting matches. Furthermore, no recontact is planned in the future. Rather, matching to the National Death Index (NDI) and to other national databases will continue on a periodic basis. The Mortality Status file (Part 1) contains mortality status and demographic data for all NH2MS participants who were 30-75 years of age at their NHANES II examination. The Cause of Death file (Part 2) contains one record for each known decedent for whom multiple causes of death were obtained (2,103 out of the 2,145 participants identified as deceased). Cause of death is missing for some decedents either because there was no matching record on the NCHS Multiple Cause of Death files or the death certificate was not found through the state vital statistics office.

Time period: 1990-01-01--1991-01-01

This data file supplies the date and cause of death for sample persons included in the NATIONAL HEALTH INTERVIEW SURVEY, 1990 (ICPSR 9839) who died between 1990 and the end of 1991. Linkage information collected on respondents 18 years of age and older as part of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) was used to match these respondents to the National Death Index. The vital status information produced from the matches can be linked with the NHIS data to provide a longitudinal component to those data. Variables include survey year, quarter, household number, person number, year of death, month of death, whether an autopsy was performed, vital status classification information, causes of death, and hospital and patient status.

National Health Interview Surveys, 1986-1994: Multiple Cause of Death, Dates of Death, 1986-1995 (ICPSR 2183)

Released/updated on: 2006-01-18

Geographic coverage: United States

Time period: 1986-01-01--1995-01-01

This data collection supplies date and cause of death data for sample persons included in the National Health Interview Surveys (NHIS) for the years 1986 through 1994. Beginning with survey year 1986, linkage information was collected on NHIS respondents aged 18 and older to allow for matching with other data systems such as the National Death Index (NDI). The Multiple Cause of Death (MCD) data files contain information on those persons with scores high enough to be considered deceased or scores high enough that they may be included in an analysis as deceased. The Ineligible Cases data files contain person IDs of those NHIS participants under the age of 18 as well as those with insufficient information to permit linkage with the NDI. These cases should be excluded from the NHIS survey data files prior to analysis. Linkage of the NHIS respondents with the NDI provides a longitudinal component to the NHIS that allows for the ascertainment of vital status. The addition of vital status permits the use of NHIS data to estimate survival, mortality, and life expectancy while using the richness of the NHIS questionnaires, both core and supplements, as covariates. These data files must be used in conjunction with the basic NHIS data files (1986 [ICPSR 8976], 1987 [ICPSR 9195], 1988 [ICPSR 9412], 1989 [ICPSR 9583], 1990 [ICPSR 9839], 1991 [ICPSR 6049], 1992 [ICPSR 6343], 1993 [ICPSR 6534], 1994 [ICPSR 6724]). Variables included in the MCD files cover year of interview, quarter, household number, person number, month and year of death, vital status, and causes of death. The Ineligible Cases files contain a person ID that matches columns 3-16 on the NHIS public use data files.

National Longitudinal Mortality Study (NLMS) (ICPSR 134)

Released/updated on: 2008-03-26

Geographic coverage: United States

The National Longitudinal Mortality Study (NLMS) consists of a database developed for the purpose of studying the effects of demographic and socio-economic characteristics on differentials in United States mortality rates. The NLMS database is based on a random sample of the non-institutionalized population of the United States. It consists of United States Census Bureau data from Current Population Surveys, annual Social and Economic Supplements and the 1980 Census combined with death certificate information to identify mortality status and cause of death.

United States Census of Mortality: 1850, 1860, and 1870 (ICPSR 2526)

Released/updated on: 2006-03-30

Geographic coverage: United States

This data collection is a portion of the historical data collected by the project, "Early Indicators of Later Work Levels, Disease, and Death," which is collecting military, medical, and socioeconomic data on a sample of white males mustered into the Union Army during the Civil War. During 1850, 1860, and 1870, mortality information was gathered at the county level as an addendum to the population census. These data examine the impact of environmental factors on life outcomes and look at the influence of infectious disease rates on economic and health patterns at late ages. Part 1, Disease Data, looks at cause of death from 66 disease classifications. Part 2, General Disease Data, also examines cause of death but through 18 broad disease categories. Variables included in both parts are state, county, year of death, and frequency of death by disease.
