4 Health Status Index Series Vol XVIII No II pg. i PREFACE This edition of the Leading Causes of Death in Chicago has two major changes from the 00 version. We have converted from ageadjusted to actual (crude) mortality rates for ten year trend comparisons. To reflect the changing demographics of Chicago s Hispanic population, we have added the Central American population as a study group and dropped reporting for the Cuban population. The report begins with data on the 00 leading causes of death for Chicago residents presented for different ethnic groups and sex by detailed age categories, and for different age groups by ethnicity categories. The report concludes with ten year comparisons of mortality rates for 00 leading causes and allcause death by ethnicity and sex. It is hoped that this report will prove helpful in developing effective public health interventions in Chicago. Questions, comments or suggestions for improving future editions are welcome.

5 The ten leading causes of death for Chicago residents represented % of all deaths, and % of all infant deaths. Although the positioning changed slightly, the 00 leading causes of death were the same as those for 00 and most of the 00 leading causes of infant death were the same. disease and cancer were the top two leading causes of death for all Chicago residents, also for both sexes and all ethnic groups studied. Although HIV/AIDS mortality continues to decline, it was among the leading causes of death for two groups non-hispanic Black Males, and Puerto Rican Males. Either prematurity related disorders or birth defects were the top cause of infant death for all ethnic groups studied, with the exception of Puerto Ricans. For Puerto Ricans, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) was the leading cause of infant mortality. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Infant mortality (Certain Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period) is one of the leading causes of death for Chicago s Mexican population. For the - age group, either homicide, accidents or suicide was the leading cause of death for all ethnic and gender groups studied. th Homicide was the 0 leading cause for all Chicagoans, and the th leading cause of death for the Mexican and non-hispanic Black populations in Chicago. disease mortality declined dramatically from to 00, but these improvements were not distributed evenly. Non-Hispanic Whites and Asian populations, and non-hispanic Black Females all had significant decreases in heart disease mortality rates, while Hispanics and non-hispanic Black males saw no improvement or worsening of heart disease mortality. Cancer mortality decreased from to 00 for all Chicago residents. This was driven by a decline in cancer mortality for the non-hispanic White population, all other ethnic categories had stable or increasing cancer mortality rates. pneumonia mortality improved slightly over the ten year period but remained the th leading cause of death for Chicagoans. Alzheimer s disease is becoming an increasingly common cause of death for Chicago women. Non-Hispanic White women have the highest mortality rate from Alzheimer s but non-hispanic Black women had the most rapid increase, with mortality rates tripling over the ten year period (-00).

7 CHAPTER METHODS

8 BACKGROUND In order to understand and appropriately interpret the data, it is important to understand: data reporting criteria, cause of death determination, ranking procedures, and rate calculations. DATA REPORTING CRITERIA The guidelines for data release used by the Office of Epidemiology balance data accessibility with privacy concerns and the stability of the statistics we publish. Rates based on a few events (e.g. 0 or less) can vary widely just by random chance even when there is no meaningful statistical difference between measurements. Rare events occurring in large populations do not usually allow for the identification of individuals, but reporting small cell sizes for population subgroups increases the risk of breaching confidentiality. The general guidelines for data release used in this report (adapted from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health) are based on both the numerator (event) and denominator (population or group size) values. To prevent back calculation of suppressed numbers, secondary suppression of other numbers may be performed in conjunction with the primary suppression. See Table for specific reporting conditions. Tables were reviewed and additional suppression was applied in some cases when there were two or less rankable causes of death for a small number of deaths in an age group. Health Status Index Series Vol XVIII No II pg. CAUSE OF DEATH DETERMINATION All deaths are registered using death certificates. Death certificates are processed and analyzed by a standardized system that is used in most countries throughout the world, the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). On the death certificate, the certifier (a physician, coroner or medical examiner) enters information about the causes and circumstances of death in a specific sequence. When received by the vital statistics office, the causes are placed in standard categories, and the underlying cause of death is then determined. Underlying cause of death is not necessarily the first medical condition listed on the death certificate. All of the information on the certificate is examined systematically, using classification rules, to determine the most appropriate underlying cause of death. Table. Conditions for Reporting Data reported* Population > AND Number of events < Population 0 Population AND Number of events = 0 0 Population AND Population - Number of events > Population < 0 AND Number of events = 0 not reported 0 Population AND Population - Number of events Population < 0 AND Number of events *If calculations produce statistically unreliable rates, ratios or percentages, then () counts will be reported without secondary calculations OR () secondary calculations will be identified with a warning to use caution when interpreting or comparing those values. The system is periodically revised to reflect advances in medical knowledge and public health priorities. The ninth revision, ICD-, was used for deaths in the United States for twenty years, -. The ICD- 0 is the most recent update, and is being used for US deaths with data from and later. There are important differences between ICD-0 and ICD-, including the following: The number of detailed categories nearly doubled. Important changes in some of rules for classifying underlying cause of death. Therefore, even with the same information being recorded on the death certificate, a death can be attributed to a different underlying cause of death. Due to these differences, mortality rates based on data classified under ICD-0 cannot be directly compared to ICD-. In order to compare mortality statistics between deaths in (classified by ICD-) and deaths in 00 (classified by ICD-0), the data were multiplied by a comparability ratio. There is a different ratio for each cause of death, determined by a comparability study conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. See the Appendix for the comparability ratios used in this publication. Contact the Office of Epidemiology for more information.

9 RANKING Tabulation lists are part of the ICD system. These lists standardize the reporting of data which makes it easier to compare data from different times and places. The lists aggregate detailed categories into appropriate groupings. Ranking is performed on the basis of the tabulation lists. Not all causes of death are considered rankable. For example, if sub-categories of a larger category are on a tabulation list, then only the larger category is considered for ranking purposes. Another important exception are causes of death that are remainder categories for larger groupings. As an example, the grouping Other diseases of the respiratory system is not considered in leading cause of death ranking. Further detail can be obtained from the National Vital Statistics Reports and other publications of the National Center for Health Statistics. RATE CALCULATIONS In past editions of this report, we have reported age adjusted rates for causes of death and all-cause mortality. Age adjustment is a technique that is used to make it easier to interpret differences in disease rates between different populations. Although age adjustment has advantages in interpretation, it requires detailed population information to calculate correctly. The population data needed to calculate these rates for specific ethnic groups in Chicago was not available, and these populations were estimated. After re-evaluation of the methodology, it was determined that the degree of potential error in intercensal years is substantial, reducing the reliability of the rate calculation. Effective with this edition, actual mortality rates are calculated and reported. The number of population estimates performed is minimized using this method, and leads to more reliable rates. Using this data requires more caution in interpretation of differences between groups or over time. Differences between ethnic groups or over time can be due to potentially modifiable risk factors, but also to differences or changes in the age structure of the populations. Actual mortality rates can be compared to each other, but they cannot be compared to age adjusted rates. The trend data in this report cannot be compared with the trend data in earlier editions. SPECIFIC METHODS FOR THIS REPORT data sources Mortality data come from the Illinois Department of Public Health 00 and death datasets. These datasets include persons with unknown age, who are not included in the age specific calculations but are included in the All Ages calculations. Population denominators for calculating 00 and mortality rates were based on data from the 000 and 0 US Census, the and 00 American Community Survey (ACS). The Office of Epidemiology prepared intercensal estimates when appropriate (see below). ranking For infants under, the number of deaths from each of the rankable causes of the List of 0 Selected Causes of Infant Death, as well as all-cause mortality, is tabulated. For all other age groups, the number of deaths from each of the rankable causes of the List of Selected Causes of Death, as well as all-cause mortality, is tabulated. The ten causes with the highest frequencies for each age group are then reported. In the case of a tie, deaths are listed in order of their appearance in the ICD-0. The rankable causes from each list are listed in Tables A- and A- in the Appendix. The abbreviations used in this publication can be found in Table. population estimates The Office of Epidemiology calculated intercensal population estimates for populations. Linear interpolation modeling for was performed using 0 and 000 U.S. Census data for all sex and ethnic categories. For 00 populations, ACS data from 00 was used for all population groups with the exception of one ethnic group. The ACS file was used for population estimates for the Non-Hispanic Native American population. For the Non-Hispanic ethnic groups, persons reporting multiple ethnicity were excluded from the population estimates for calculating ethnic specific rates. They are included in the population estimates for the total population. Kung HC, Hoyert DL, Xu JQ, Murphy SL. Deaths: Final data for 00. National vital statistics reports; vol no 0.
