1 Leading Causes of Death Profile St. Louis County, Missouri Mortality is an indicator of the health of a population. Cause of death ranking is the standard method that is useful for illustrating the relative burden of particular diseases or injuries that cause mortality. 1 This report presents data from 2010 through 2014 for Saint Louis County, giving a broad overview of mortality for all causes overall and the 10 leading causes of death by sex, age, race and Hispanic origin, poverty level, and geographic area. The data are derived from death certificates from St. Louis County residents. During , there were a total of 46,261 resident deaths in St. Louis County. The age adjusted death rate in 2014 was deaths per 100,000 U.S. standard population. For , the 10 leading causes of St. Louis County resident deaths were: heart disease, cancer, cerebrovascular diseases (stroke), accidents (unintentional injuries), chronic lower respiratory disease (), Alzheimer s disease, influenza and pneumonia, nephritis, nephrotic syndrome and nephrosis (kidney disease), diabetes, and septicemia. Seven of the 10 leading causes of death during were chronic diseases, accounting for 66 percent of all deaths. Mortality from All Causes Figure 1.

All cause mortality rates declined in recent years for all three populations. St. Louis County rates decreased 1.8%, from deaths per 100,000 population in 2010 to deaths per 100,000 in Appendix 1 includes details about these death counts and rates.

5 Leading Causes of Death Page 5 of 19 Leading Causes of Death Table 2 shows the 10 leading causes of death in St. Louis County, in ranked order, during Seven of the 10 leading causes were chronic diseases and conditions. Chronic diseases, including heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic lung diseases, and diabetes, have modifiable risk factors that can lead to premature mortality. Table 2.

The St. Louis County Department of Public Health established the Chronic Epidemiology (CDE) program to address chronic diseases among county residents. The program aims to publish more detailed surveillance reports on the most burdensome chronic diseases and their risk factors.

10 Leading Causes of Death Page 10 of 19 Differences by Race and Hispanic Origin Figure 7 shows selected chronic disease causes of death that were among the 10 leading causes of death by race and ethnicity. Some racial or ethnic groups do not have a bar for a particular disease because that disease was not among the ten leading causes of death for the population. Heart disease and cancer were the two leading causes of death for all groups. However, the age adjusted death rates among Black/African Americans were the highest for all causes of death except for chronic lower respiratory disease (), Alzheimer s disease, and chronic liver disease. Alzheimer s disease was only a top ten leading cause of death for Black/African Americans and whites. Figure 7.

14 Leading Causes of Death Page 14 of 19 Methods Data was obtained from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Bureau of Vital Statistics for the years 2010 to Causes of death classified using the International Classification of s, Tenth Revision (ICD 10) underlying cause codes are ranked according to the number of deaths assigned to rankable causes. The List of 113 Selected Causes of Death and Enterocolitis due to Clostridium difficile is used to select rankable causes for the leading causes presented in this report. 1 Data for rates of the leading cause of death in the United States were obtained from 2013 Mortality Multiple Cause Micro data Files, from the National Vital Statistics System (NVSS), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). 2 The data received captures all deaths of St. Louis County residents (within or outside of St. Louis County). The American Community Survey (ACS) was used to generate 1 year and 5 year estimates for the St. Louis County population by age, gender, race and Hispanic origin for The percent of residents living below the federal poverty level for each census tract was also obtained from ACS using the 5 year estimate for 2009 to In the analysis, neighborhood poverty level was assigned to each death based on residence within each St. Louis County 2010 census tract. Each census tract was assigned one of four categories of percent below federal poverty level 3 : Low (0 to < 10 percent); Medium (10 to <20 percent); High (20 to <30 percent); and Very high (30 to 100 percent). Age adjusted and age specific rates and 95% confidence intervals were calculated in Microsoft Excel using population estimates from ACS. The rates were ageadjusted to the 2000 U.S. population 4. Geographic regions were determined from St. Louis County Planning division region maps by assigning each census tract a matching region. Maps were generated using ArcGIS for the vital statistics data for rates by zip code, and geographic regions. Chronic Epidemiology Program The Chronic Epidemiology (CDE) program is responsible for analysis, interpretation, and presentation of health data related to chronic and their risk factors. The CDE program supports the Saint Louis County Department of Public Health (DPH) by providing the following services: Develop study designs, questionnaires, and case definitions. Evaluate chronic disease programs. Locate or develop surveillance systems, and analyze epidemiologic data sets. Provide county, state, and national comparison data. Interpret St. Louis County chronic disease and risk factor data. Conduct epidemiologic investigations and special studies of chronic diseases and chronic disease risk factors of public health importance. Monitor St. Louis County chronic disease trends. Provide scientific advice and technical assistance to community groups and outside partners with respect to surveillance and other epidemiology data expertise. Publish reports and web pages on chronic disease and risk factors.
