Highlights
In 1992 a record 2,175,613 deathswere registered in the United Statea,6,095 more than the previous high of2,169,518 deaths recorded in 1991 and27,150 more deaths than in 1990. Thedeath rate for 1992 was 852.9 deaths per100,000 population compared with therate of 860.3 in 1991 and 863.8 in 1990.Provisional data indicate that the deathrate increased in 1993. The age-adjusteddeath rate, which eliminates the distortingeffects of the aging of the population, wasat a record low of 504.5 per 100,000 U.S.standard million population, 1.8 percentbelow the 1991 rate of 513.7 and 13.9percent below the 1980 rate of 585.8. Theage-adjusted rate decreased for the whiteand black populations behveen 1991 and1992.
For most of the 10-year age groupsfor males and females, death ratesdeclined between 1991 and 1992, butratea increased for ages 35-44 yeara. The
cause of death contributing most to theincrease in death rates for males andfemales aged 35-44 years was Humaninmmnodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
In 1992 life expectancy at birthreached a record high of 75.8 years,Women currently are expeeted to outlivemen by an average of 6.8 years, andwhite persons are expected to outliveblack persons by an average of 6.9 years.White females continue to have thehighest life expectancy at birth (79.8years), followed by black females (73.9years), white males (73.2 years), andblack males (65.0 years). Although lifeexpectancy for black males increased in1992, it was still below the peak attainedin 1984. The gain in life expectancy of0.3 year for the totrd population can beexplained primarily by decreasing deathrates for Diseases of heart and Accidentsand adverse effects, despite increases indeath rates for HIV infection and Dia-betes mellitus.

2 Monthly Vital Statistics Report ● Vol. 43, No. 6(S) ● March 22, 1995 ~
The ranking of the leading causes ofdeath for the total population in 1992changed for two causes, HIV infectionand Suicide. The first seven leadingcauses of death—Diseases of heart;Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues (cancer); Cerebrovascular diseases(stroke); Chronic obstructive pulmonarydiseases and allied conditions; Accidentsand adverse effects; Pneumonia and influ-enza; and Diabetes mellitus-accountedfor 77.5 percent of deaths and were theseven leading causes in the previous year.HIV infection continued to climb,moving up from the ninth leading causein 1991 to eighth in 1992. Suicidedropped from the eighth leading causebetween 1982 and 1991, to the ninthleading cause in 1992.
Age-adjusted death rates for 11 ofthe leading causes of death for the totalpopulation declined between 1991 and1992, led by reductions for Atheroscle-rosis, Accidents and adverse effects, andPneumonia and influenza. Mortality forMotor vehicle accidents, a component ofAccidents and adverse effects, declinedby 7 percent between 1991 and 1992.Heart disease, the leading cause of deathin the United States, and stroke, the thirdleading cause of death, continued theirlong-term declines.
Increases in age-adjusted death ratesfor leading causes of death between 1991and 1992 were led by HIV infection, witha record high age-adjusted death rate. Theage-adjusted death rate for HIV infectionincreased by 11,5 percent between 1991and 1992, a marked slowing from theprevious year. The age-adjusted deathrate also increased for Diabetes mellitus(1 percent).
Mortality from drug-induced deathsincreased sharply between 1991 and1992, while age-adjusted death rates foralcohol-induced causes remainedunchanged. Rates from firearm injuries—reported for the first time in thisreport~eclined after increasing steadilyfrom 1987.
The age-adjusted death rate formales was about 72 percent higher thanthat for females for all causes of deathcombined. For each of the 15 leadingcauses of death, male mortality washigher. The greatest sex differential was
for HIV infection, where the age-adjustedrate for males was 7.0 times that forfemales. The smallest sex differential wasfor Diabetes mellitus, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.1.
Overall, age-adjusted death rates forthe black population exceeded those ofthe white population by about 61 percent.Rates also were higher for most of theleading causes of death. The largest racedifferential continued to be for Homicideand legal intervention, for which the age-adjusted rate for the black population was6.5 times that of the white population.The two leading causes that had lowerrates for the black population wereChronic obstructive pulmonary diseasesand allied conditions and Suicide.
Leading causes of death differed byage. Overall, the leading cause of deathfor the age group 1-4 years and each agegroup through 25-44 years was Accidentsand adverse effects. For ages 45-64,Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues was the leading cause. For the agegroup 65 years and over, the leadingcause of death was Diseases of heart. Theleading cause of death was the same forthe white and black populations for allage groups except 15–24 years and 25-44years. For the white population, Acci-dents and adverse effects was the leadingcause for these two age groups. For theblack population, Homicide and legalintervention was the leading cause forthose 15–24 years of age, and HIV infec-tion was the leading cause for those aged2544 years.
In 1992 leading causes of death dif-fered between the Hispanic and the non-Hispanic white populations in an areacomprised of 48 States and the District ofColumbia. Although the ‘nvo leadingcauses of death-Diseases of heart andcancer—were the same for the two popu-lation groups, substantial differences existin the ranking of other leading causes.
The infant mortality rate (8.5 infantdeaths per 1,000 live births) reached arecord low in 1992. Among the leadingcauses of infant mortality, the causes con-tributing the most to the improvement inthe rate were Respiratory distress syn-drome and Sudden infant death syn-drome. An increasing infant mortality ratefor Newborn atlected by complications
of platen@ cord and membranespreventedthe infimt mortality rate from decreasingfurther. hfan~ neons@ and postneomtalmortality rates declined for white and blackinfants between 1991 and 1992. In 1992 theinfant mortality rate for black infantsremained at more than twice that for whiteinfants.
The mortality data in this report canbe used to monitor the health of theNation and to identify groups at greatestrisk for death from specific diseases andinjuries. Differences in death rates byrace may reflect differences in factorssuch as socioeconomic status, access tomedical care, and the prevalence of spe-cific risks.
Deaths and death rates
In 1992 a total of 2,175,613 deathsoccurred in the United States, 6,095 morethan in 1991 and 27,150 more than in1990. Before 1992 the 1991 total of2,169,518 deaths was the largest finalnumber ever recorded. Although thenumber of deaths increased between 1991and 1992, the death rate for 1992, 852.9per 100,000 population, was 0.9 percentlower than the rate of 860.3 in 1991. In1990 the death rate was 863.8. The pro-visional death rate for 1993 (879.3) wasup from 1992 (l).
Age-adjusted death rates are con-structs that show what the level of mor-tality would be if no changes occurred inthe age composition of the population hornyear to year. (For a discussion of sge-adjusted death rates, see “Technicalnotes.”)Thus, they are better indicatom thao unad-justed death rates for showing changesin therisk of death over a period of time when theage distribution of the population ischanging.Also, they rue better indicatomofrelative fik when comparisons of mortalityare being made for sex or race subgroups ofthe population that have different age com-positions.”The age-adjusted death rate of504.5 deaths per 100,000U.S. standard rnil-Iion population in 1992 was a record low,1.8 percent below the rate of 513.7 for 1991and 13.9 percent below the rate of 585.8 for1980 (figure 1). Since 1980 the age-adjusteddeath rate has decreased every year except1985 and 1988, years when major influenzaoutbreaks increased mortality in the UnitedStates (2,3).

Death rates by age, sex, and race
Between 1991 and 1992, death ratesfor both sexes combined declined for allof the 10-year age groups except 354.4years (table A). The largest decrease (8.0percent) occurred for the age group 1-4years, and the only increase (2.0 percent)occurred for those aged 3544 years.
For the white population, death ratesdeclined between 1991 and 1992 for allage groups except 35-44 years. Thelargest decrease (8.6 percent) occurredfor those 1-4 years of age, and the onlyincrease (2.1 percent) occurred for thoseaged 35-44 years. For the black popula-tion, death rates declined for all agegroups except those aged under 1 year,35-44 years, and 85 years and over. Thelargest decline occurred for the age group14 years (8.2 percent), and the largestincrease occurred for those aged under 1year and 35-44 years (0.8 percent).
The death rate for males alsodeclined between 1991 and 1992 for allage groups except 354.4 years. Thelargest decrease for males was for those1-4 years (7.7 percent), and the onlyincrease was for those aged 35-44 years(2.3 percent). The increase in death ratesbetween 1991 and 1992 for males aged35-44 years ecmtinued the increase be~between 1983 and 1984, a reversal of thedownward trend for this age group sincethe late 1960’s (figyxe 2 and table A).
For females age-specilic rates havegenerally been decreasing since 1950.Between 1991 and 1992, death ratesdeclined for all age groups except 3544years. The largest decrease in death ratesbetween 1991 and 1992 occurred forfemales 1-4 years (8.7 percent). The onlyincrease was for 35-44 years (1.1percent).

substantial fluctuation from year to yearbecause of the relatively small number ofdeaths oecm-ring in these age groups.Death rates at these ages were very lowcompared with other ages.
Age-adjusted death rates for whitemales and black males deereased by 2.1percent between 1991 and 1992. Theage-adjusted death rate decreased by 1.7percent for white females and 1.2 percentfor black females. Age-adjusted deathrates have deereased almost every yearsince 1980 for white males and females,resulting in yet another set of record lowrates in 1992. For black males, ratesdecreased between 1980 and 1982,increased between 1984 and 1988, anddecreased between 1988 and 1992,resulting in a record low rate of 1,026.9in 1992. Rates for black females fluctu-ated between 1980 and 1987 but havedecreased each year since 1988. The1992 age-adjusted rate of 568.4 was arecord low for black females.
In 1992 the age-adjusted death ratefor males of all races was 1.7 times thatfor females. In 1950 the male-to-femaleratio was 1.5. The 1970 ratio (1.7)increased to 1.8 during the late 1970’suntil 1987 when the ratio again declinedto 1.7. For 1992 the ratio between maleand female age-adjusted death rates was1.7 for the white population and 1.8 forthe black population.
In 1992 the age-adjusted death ratefor the black population was 1.6 timesthat for the white population, the sameratio that has prevailed since 1987. For1960-86, the ratio was 1.5.
Expectation of life at birth andat specified ages
In 1992 the average expectation oflife at birth reached a record high of 75.8years. This continued the general upwardtrend in life expectancy in the UnitedStates.
The expectation of life at birth for1992 represents the average number ofyears that a group of infants would live ifthe infants were to experience throughoutlife the age-specific death rates prevailingin 1992. In 1992 life expectancy forfemales was 79.1 years compared with72.3 years for males; both figures repre-sent increases over 1991. The differencein life expectancy between the sexes was

6.8 years in 1992, smaller than the differ-ence of 6.9 years in 1991. In contrast towidening from 1900 to 1972 (2.0 years in1900, 5.5 years in 1950, and 6.5 years in1960), the difference in life expectancybetween the sexes narrowed between1979 and 1988 (7.7 and 7.8 yearsthroughout the period 1972–79, 7.1 yearsin 1984, and 6.9 years in 1988) and hassubsequently fluctuated between 6.8 and7.0 years.
Between 1991 and 1992, life expect-ancy for the white population increasedfrom 76.3 years to a record high of 76.5years, and for the black population, from69.3 years to 69.6 years. Although thedifference in life expectancy between thewhite and black populations narrowedfrom 7.6 years in 1970 to 5.7 years in
1982, it increased to 7.1 years in 1989before declining to 7.0 years in 1990 and1991, and 6.9 years in 1992.
Among the four race-sex groups (fig-ure 3), white females continued to havethe highest life expectancy at birth (79.8years), followed by black females (73.9years), white males (73.2 years), andblack males (65.0 years). Between 1991and 1992, life expectancy increased forblack males (from 64.6 years in 1991 to65.0 years in 1992) and for black females(from 73.8 in 1991 to 73.9 in 1992).Black males experienced an unprec-edented decline in life expectancy everyyear for 1984-89 (4), but an annualincrease in 1990, 1991, and 1992. How-ever, life expectancy for black males wasstill 0.3 year below the peak life expect-
ancy of 65.3 years attained in 1984.Before 1988 life expectancy for blackfemales fluctuated, but life expectancyfor black females increased from 1988 to1992. Overall, the largest gain in lifeexpectancy between 1980 and 1992 wasfor white males (2.5 years), followed bywhite females (1.7 years), black females(1.4 years), and black males (1.2 years).
The 1992 life table may be used tocompare life expectancies at any agehorn birth onward. For example, a personwho has reached age 65 years may lookforward to living to an older age, on theaverage, than one who has reached 50years. On the basis of mortality experi-enced in 1992, a person aged 50 yearscould expect to live an average of 29.3more years for a total of 79.3 years, and a

Cause of death
Deaths assigned to the 15 leadingcauses of death for the total populationaccounted for 86 percent of the totalnumber of deaths in 1992 (table B). (’Forranking procedures, see “Technicalnotes.”) The ranking of 13 of the 15leading causes of death for 1992 wasunchanged from the list based on data for1991. The rankings changed for only twoof the causes. Suicide, the eighth leadingcause between 1982 and 1991, and HIVinfection, the ninth leading cause in 1991,switched rankings in 1992.
In 1992 the leading causes of deathdiffered substantially by age. At theyounger ages (the age group 14 yearsand each age group through 2544 years),Accidents and adverae effects was theleading cause, while at the older ageachronic diseases were the leadingcauses—Malignant neoplasms, includingneoplasms of lymphatic and hematopoi-etic tissues for those aged 45-64 yearsand Diseases of heart for those aged 65years and over. Within broad age groupsfor the white and black populations, theleading cause was the same except for theage groups 15-24 and 25-44 years. Forthe age group 15–24 years, the leadingcause for the white population was Acci-dents and adverse effects, while the
leading cause for the black populationwas Homicide and legal intervention. Forthe age group 25-44 years, the leadingcause for the white population was Acci-dents and adverse effects, while theleading cause for the black population
“was HIV infection. For the age group15–24 years and every age group through65 yeare and over, Accidents and adverseeffects ranked higher for the white popu-lation, while Homicide and legal inter-vention and HIV infection consistentlyranked higher for the black population forall age groups under 65 years.
Trends in mortality based on age-adjusted death rates are shown in figure 4and table C for 14 of the 15 leadingcauses of death for the total populationfor ~ ages. Age-adjusted rates for Cer-tain conditions originating in the peri-natal period are not discussed becausedeaths from this cause occur mainlyamong infants under 1 year.
For 11 of the leading causes of deathfor the total population, the age-adjusteddeath rates decreased between 1991 and1992 (table C). These causes were Dis-eases of heart, Malignant neoplasms,including neoplasms of lymphatic andhematopoietic tissues, Cerebrovasculardiseases, Chronic obstructive pulmonarydiseases and allied conditions, Accidentsand adverse effects, Pneumonia and influ-enza, Suicide, Homicide and legal inter-ventio~ Chronic liver disease andcirrhosis, Septicemia, and Atheroscle-rosis. The largest declines were for Ath-erosclerosis (7.7 percent), Pneumonia andinfiuenza (5.2 percent), and Aeeidentaand adveree effeeta (5.2 percent). Motorvehicle aecidenta, a component of Acci-dents and adverse effects, declined by 7.1pereent between 1991 and 1992. Thedeclines for Diseases of heart, Cere-brovascular diseaaes, and Atherosclerosiswere consistent with the generally down-ward trends observed since 1950. Acci-dents and adverse effects has exhibited ageneraI downward trend since 1968,

In 1988, HIV infection increased 21.8percent in 1989, 29.9 percenC in 1990,12.6 percent; andin 1991, 15.3 percent.The age-adjusted death rate for I-Winfection, 12.6, was a new record high.The age-adjusted death rate for Diabetesmellitus showed a much smaller increasefor 1992, 1991, and 1990 (1.0 percent foreach year) compared with the abrupt 14percent increase in 1989. Diabetes mel-Iitus mortality decreased from the late1960’s throughout the 1970’s andremained at a plateau until 1988. Theage-adjusted death rate for Nephritis,nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosisremained unchanged between 1991 and1992.
The very large decrease in mortalityfor Atherosclerosis and the very largeincrease for Diabetes mellitus thatoccurred behveen 1988 and 1989 may bebecause almost all States implemented arevision of the death certificate patternedafter the 1989 revision of the U.S. Stan-dard Certificate of Death. A largemajority of these States altered themedicsl certification of death and instruc-tions in such a way that physicians mayhave changed the way in which theyreport causes of death (5–7).
Mortality levels for each of the 15leading causes of death for the total popu-lation were higher for males than forfemales (table D). Ten of the leadingcauses of death showed differentials inwhich death rates for malea were at least1.5 times those for females. The age-adjusted death rate for HIV infection, inwhich the death rate for males was 7.0times that for females, was the largestdifferential. Other large differentials werefor Suicide (4.3); Homicide and legalintervention (4.0); Accidents and adverseeffects (2.6); Chronic liver disease andcirrhosis (2.4); Diseases of heart (1.9);Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseasesand allied conditions (1.7); Pneumoniaand influenza (1.7); Nephritis, nephroticsyndrome, and nephrosis (1.5); andMalignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues (1.5). The smallest sex differencein mortality was for Diabetes mellitus,with a male-to-female ratio of 1.1.
For females the age-adjusted deathrate for all causes combined decreased by1.6 percent between 1991 and 1992. Therates for eight of the leading causes ofdeath for the total population decreasedfor females, including Diseases of hea~
Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues; Cerebrovascular diseases; Acci-dents and adverse effects Pneumonia andinfluenza; Homicide; Chronic liver dis-ease and cirrhosis; and Atherosclerosis.Increases in rates occurred for twoleading causes-HIV infection andNephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and neph-rosis. The rate for four causes, Chronicobstructive pulmonary diseases and alliedconditions, Diabetes mellitus, Suicide,and Septicemia were unchanged.
The increase in the death rate for thefemale population aged 3544 yearabetween 1991 and 1992 was primarilydue to an increase in the rate for HIVinfection. Decreases in death rates forages 14, 5-14, 15–24, and 25-34 yearswere primarily due to decreases in therates for Accidents and adverse effects;while decreases for ages 65–74, 75-84,and 85 years and over were due todecreases in the rates for Diseases ofheart.
For mrdes the age-adjusted death ratefor all causes combined declined by 2.1percent between 1991 and 1992. Therates for 11 of the leading causes of deathfor the total population decreased formales, including Diseases of heart;Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissueq Cerebrovascular diseases;Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseasesand allied condition% Aeeidents andadverse effects; Pneumonia and influ-enza; Suicide; Homicide and legaI inter-vention Chronic liver disease andcirrhosi$ Septicemia; and Atheroscle-rosis. Increases in the age-adjusted deathrate occurred for Diabetes mellitus; HIVinfectioq and Nephritis, nephrotic syn-drome, and nephrosis. For males thelargest increase was for HIV infection(10.9 percent). Between 1991 and 1992the age-adjusted death rate for Motorvehicle accidents, a component of Acci-dents and adverse effects, continued thedecline observed between 1988 and 1991.
The increase in the death rate for themale population aged 3544 yearsbetween 1991 and 1992 was primarilydue to an increase in the rate for HIVinfection. Decreases in death rates forages 1-4, 5-14, 15-24, and 25-34 yearawere primarily due to decreases in therates for Accidents and adverse effects;

while decreases for ages 45–54 years andeach agegroupthrough85 years and overwere due to decreases in the rates forDiseases of heart.
Mortality was higher for the blackpopulation than for the white populationfor most of the leading causes of deathfor the total population (table D). Thelargest differential waa for Homicide andlegal intervention, for which the age-adjusted death rate for the black popula-tion was 6.5 times that of the whitepopulation. Other causes for which thedifferential was large include HlVinfec-tion (3.7); Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome,and nephrosis (2.8); Septicemia (2.7);Diabetes mellitus (2.4); Cerebrovasculardiseases (l.9); Chronic liver disease andcirrhosis (1.5); and Diseases of heart(1.5). Age-adjusted rates for the blackpopulation were lower than those for thewhite population for two leading causesof death-Chronic obstructive pulmonarydiseases and allied conditions and Sui-cide.
For the white population, decreasesin age-adjusted rates occurred for 10 ofthe total population’s leading causes ofdeath. The largest decrease was for Ath-erosclerosis (7.7 percent). Only oneleading cause increased for the whitepopulation, HIV infection (8.9 percent).
The increase in the death rate for thewhite population aged 3544 yearsbetween 1991 and 1992 was primarilydue to an increase in the rate for HIVinfection. Decreases in thedeath rates forthe white population aged 1-4, .5-14,15–24, and 25–34 years were primarilydue to decreases in the rates for Accidentsand adverse effects; while decreases forages 65–74, 75-84, and 85 years and overwere due to decreases in the rates forDiseases of heart.
For the black population, age-adjusted death rates were lower in 1992than in 1991 for 11 of the total popula-tion’s leading causes of death. The largestdecrease was for Atherosclerosis (10.3percent). The only leading cause thatincreased for the black population wasHIV infection (17.5 percent).
The increase in the death rate for theblack population aged 3544 yearsbetween 1991 and 1992 was primarilydue to an increase in the rate for HIVinfection. Decreases in the death rates forthe black population aged 1=4, 5–14,1%24, and 25-34 years between 1991 and1992 were primarily due to a decrease in therate for Accidents and adverse effeckywhiledecreases for ages 55-64,65-74, and 75-84years were due to decreases in the rates forDiseases of heart.
Despite increases in HIV infeetionand Diabetes mellitus, the overall lifeexpectancy improved to 75.8 years in1992 primarily because of decreases inmortality from Diseases of heart andAccidents and adverse effects. (For dis-cussion of contribution to change in lifeexpectancy, see “Technical notes.”)Among white males, life expectancyimproved by 0.3 year between 1991 and1992 because of decreases in Diseases ofheart and Aeeidents and adverse effectsalthough rates for HIV infectionincreased. The improvement in lifeexpectancy for white females alsoreflected decreases in Diseases of heartbut was limited to a gain of 0.2 yearbecause of increases in Malignant neo-plasms, including neoplasms of lym-phatic and hematopoietic tissues andChronic obstructive pulmona~ diseasesand allied conditions. For black males,improvements in mortality from Acci-dents and adverse effects and Diseases ofheart were the causes of death that prin-cipally contributed to the 0.4-year gain inlife expectancy. This gain occurreddespite offsetting increases in HIV infec-tion. T’he life expectancy for blackfemales improved by 0.1 year, in part,because of decreasing rates for Diseasesof heart.
The life expectancy for white maleswas 8.2 years higher than that for blackmales in 1992. Specific causes of deathwith much lower mortality for whitemales influenced this difference. Thecauses of death contributing the most tothis difference were Homicide and legalintervention and Diseases of heart. Thelife expectancy for white females was 5.9years higher than that for black femalesin 1992. The causes of death contributingthe most to this difference were Diseasesof heart and Malignant neoplasms,including neoplasms of lymphatic andhematopoietic tissues.
HIV infection
In 1992a total of 33,566 deaths werereported as due to HIV infection, 13.6percent more than the 29,555 deaths in1991. Of these deaths, 60 percent (20,161deaths) were for white males; 27 percent(8,925) for black males; 7 percent (2,453)for black females; and 5 percent (1,760deaths) were for white females. The
Monthly Vital Statistics Report ● Vol. 43, No. 6(S) ● March 22, 1995 ~9
largest numbers for males and femaleswere for the age groups 25–34 and 354.4years. Although the numbers of deathswere greatest for white males, the age-adjusted death rates and almost all age-specific death rates were highest for blackmales, followed by white males, blackfemales, and white females.
Overall, HIV infection was ranked asthe eighth leading cause of death in 1992.For the black population, it ranked sixt~and for the white population, it rankedninth among the leading causes of death.For males of all races combined, HIVinfection was the seventh leading causeof death while for females, it did notrank among the 10 leading causes.
By age HIV infection ranked amongthe 10 leading causes of death for ages1+ 5–14, 15–24, 2544, and 45-64years. HIV infection ranked seventh forages 1-4 years, seventh for ages 5–14years, sixth for ages 15-24 years, secondfor ages 2544 years, and eighth for ages45-64 years. Although HIV infection wasthe seventh leading cause for ages 14years, the number of deaths due to thiscause was relatively small—161 deaths,or 2 percent of deaths from all causes forthat age group.
Hispanic deaths
Leading causes of death for all agegroups combined for the Hispanic popu-lation differ by rank and cause from thosefor the non-Hispanic white population inan area comprised of 48 States and theDistrict of Columbia (see “Technicalnotes”). Although the two leading causesof death—Diseases of heart and Malig-nant neoplasms, including neoplasms oflymphatic and hematopoietic tissues-arethe same for both groups, they accountedfor 59 percent of all deaths in 1992 forthe non-Hispanic white population butfor only 43 percent of the deaths for theHispanic population.
Major differences in leading causesof death between the two groups were asfollows: Of the 10 leading causes ofdeath for the Hispanic population,two-Homicide and legal intervention(5th leading cause), and Certain condi-tions originating in the perinatal period(lOth)-were not among the 10 leadingcauses for the non-Hispanic white popu-lation. Conversely, two of the leading
causes for the non-Hispanic white popu-lation were not among the 10 leadingcauses for the Hispanic populatio~including Chronic obstructive puhnonarydiseases and allied conditions (fourth)and Suicide (eighth).
Differences in the ranking of theleading causes of death between the twopopulation groups largely reflect dMer-ences in age composition between thetwo groups; that is, the Hispanic popula-tion has a greater proportion of youngpersons, and, accordingly, a larger pro-portion of deaths due to causes that aremore prevalent at younger ages. Withinbroad age groups, leading causes weremore similar between the two populationgroups. However, even within age cat-egories some differences exist. Homicideand legal intervention consistently rankedhigher for the Hispanic population thanfor the non-Hispanic white population forall age groups between 15–24 years and45-64 years. HIV infection for the His-panic population aged 1–14, 15-24,2544, and 45-64 years consistentlyranked higher than that for the non-Hispanic white population for these sameage groups. Diabetes mellitus andChronic liver disease and cirrhosis rankedhigher for the Hispanic population aged45-64 years and 65 years and over.
Firearm deaths
Beginning with this repofi deathsfkom firearm injuries are shown. The cat-egory includes firearm deaths that wereaccidents, suicides, and homicides, aswell as those for which the manner ofdeath could not be determined (forfirearm deaths, see “Technical notes”).
In 1992 a total of 37,776 personsdied from firearm injuries in the UnitedStates. This number was 1.4 percentlower than the 38,317 deaths in 1991.Firearm suicide and homicide, the twomajor component causes, accounted for48 and 47 percen~ respectively, of allfirearm injury deaths in 1992.
Of the 37,776 firearm injury deathsin 1992,59 percent were for white males,25 percent for black males, 10 pereent forwhite females, and 3.5 percent for blackfemales. The largest number of deaths forthis cause for males and females were forage groups 15–24 and 25-34 years.Although the numbers of deaths were
highest for white males, the age-adjustedand age-specilic death rates for Iirearminjuries were highest for black males,followed by white males, black females,and white females.
In 1992 the age-adjusted death ratefor firearm injuries was 14.9 deaths per100,000 U.S. standard million popula-tion, compared with a rate of 15.2 in1991. The rate decreased by 14.2 percentbetween 1980 and 1985 but increasedevery year between 1987 and 1991. Theage-adjusted death rate decreasedbetween 1991 and 1992 for white males,white femzdes, and black males, whileremaining unchanged for black females.The rate for males was 6.3 times the ratefor females, and the rate for the blackpopulation was 3.0 times that of the whitepopulation.
In 1992 the age-specific death rateyears for firearm homicide deaths peakedat ages 15–24 years for white and blackmales, while the firearm suicide deathspeaked at ages 75–84 years.
Drug-induced deaths
In 1992 a total of 11,703 personsdied of drug-induced causes in the UnitedStates. The category drug-induced causesincludes not only deaths from dependentand nondependent use of drugs (legal andillegal use), but also poisoning frommedically prescribed and other drugs. Itexcludes accidents, homicides, and othercauses indirectly related to drug use (fordrug-induced causes, see “Technicalnotes”). The age-adjusted death rate fordrug-induced causes in 1992 was 4.3deaths per 100,000 U.S. standard millionpopulation. The rate increased by 35 per-cent from 1983 to 1988, then declined 14percent between 1988 and 1990, andincreased by 19 percent from 1990 to1992. The age-adjusted death rate fordrug-induced causes for males was 2.1times the rate for females, and the rate forthe black population was 1.7 times thatfor the white population.
Alcohol-induced deaths
In 1992 a total of 19,568 personsdied of alcohol-induced causes in theUnited States. The category alcohol-induced causes includes not only deathsfrom dependent and nondependent use ofalcohol, but also accidental poisoning by
lo~ Monthly Vital Statistics Report ● Vol. 43, No. 6(S) ● March 22, 1995 ~
alcohol. It excludes accidents, homicides,and other causes indirectly related toalcohol use (for alcohol-induced causes,see “Technical notes”). The age-adjusteddeath rate for alcohol-induced causes in1992 was 6.8 deaths per 100,000 U.S.standard million population, the samerate as in 1991. The rate decreased by 20percent from 1980 to 1986, increased by9 percent from 1986 to 1989, and thendecreased by 7 percent from 1989 to1991. The age-adjusted death rate foralcohol-induced causes for males was 3.5times the rate for females, and the rate forthe black population was 2.2 times therate for the white population.
Marital status
About 90 percent of the persons 15years of age and over who died in 1992had been married. The proportion waslarger for females (92 percent) than formales (87 percent) and for the whitepopulation (90 percent) than for the blackpopulation (80 percent). The proportionwho were widowed at the time of deathwas considerably greater for women (57percent) than for men (18 percent), butabout the same for both major racegroups—38 percent of the white popula-tion and 33 percent of the black popula-tion. Some of the differences betweengroups can be accounted for by differ-ences in age composition.
Educational attainment
In an area comprised of 42 Statesand the District of Columbia, about 60percent of the persons who died in 1992had completed high school (see ‘‘Techni-cal notes’ ‘). In 1992 the percent was thesame for males and females (60 percent),but somewhat different for the whitepopulation (62 percent) compared withthe black population (47 percent). Thesame proportion of white females andwhite males (62 percent) who died in1992 had completed high school. Theproportion who had completed 4 years ofcollege was smaller for white females(9.3 percent) than for white males (13.6pereent). A similar proportion of blackfemales and black males had completedhigh school (47 percent). Slightly moreblack females (6.2 percent) than blackmales (5.2 percent) had completed 4years of college at the time of death.
Infant mortality
There were 34,628 deaths of infantsunder 1 year of age (table E) in 1992compared with 36,766 in the previousyear. The infant mortality rate of 8.5infant deaths per 1,000 live births was thelowest final rate ever recorded for theUnited States (figure 5). It represented adecline of 4.5 percent from the rate of 8.9for the previous year. The mortality ratefor white infants declined 5.5 percent (7.3in 1991 compared with 6.9 in 1992); andthe rate for black infants declined 4.5percent (17.6 in 1991 compared with 16.8in 1992).
In 1992 the infant mortality rate forblack infants (16.8) was 2.4 times the ratefor white infants (6.9), the same ratio asin the previous year. Historically, theratio has been increasing (8).
Between 1991 and 1992 the neonatalmortality rate declined by 3.6 percent,from 5.6 to 5.4 deaths for infants under28 days per 1,000 live births. For whiteinfants the rate declined from 4.5 to 4.3,and for black infants the rate declinedfrom 11.2 to 10.8. Neonatal mortalityrates historically have declined for bothraces although the declines have beenmore rapid for the white population (8).
The postneonatal mortality rate—deaths to infants 28 days to 11 monthsper 1,000 live births-declined by 8.8percent, from 3.4 to 3.1 deaths. For whiteinfants the postneonatal mortality ratedeclined from 2.8 to 2.6 deaths per 1,000live births, and for black infants the ratedeclined from 6.3 to 6.0. The historicaltrend for postneonatal mortality was ofmore rapid declines in postneonatal mor-tality for black than for white infants (8).
Among the 10 leading causes ofinfant death, the first 4-Congenitalanomalies, Sudden infant death syn-drome, Disorders relating to short gesta-tion and unspecified low birthweight, andRespiratory distress syndrome-ac-counted for just over half (53 percent) ofall infant deaths in 1992; and theremaining 6 causes accounted for only 16percent of all infant deaths. The list of the10 leading causes of infant death wasunchanged between 1991 and 1992, butthe rankings for 4 of the leading causes ofinfant death changed slightly between1991 and 1992. Infections specific to theperinatal period, the eighth leading causein 1991, and Accidents and adverseeffects, the seventh leading cause in1991, switched rankings in 1992. Pneu-monia and influenza, the 9th leadingcause in 1991, and Intrauterine hypoxiaand birth asphyxia, the 10th leading causein 1991, also switched rankings in 1992.
Between 1991 and 1992 the infantmortality rate decreased for 6 of the 10leading causes of infant death, increasedfor 3 causes, and remained unchanged for1 cause. The largest decreases were forRespiratory distress syndrome (118.7per-cent), Accidents and adverse effects (14.1percent), and Sudden infant death syn-drome (7.5 percent). Mortality rates forRespiratory distress syndrome and Acci-dents and adverse effects have beendeclining over time (3,8). The threeincreases were for Newborn affected bycomplications of placenta, cord, andmembranes (4.3 percent); Infections spe-cific to the perinatal period (3.7 percent);and Intrauterine hypoxia and birthasphyxia (3.4 percent).

contributing the most to the improvementin the overall infant mortality rate wereRespiratory distress syndrome andSudden infant death syndrome. Theincreasing rate for Newborn affected bycomplications of placenta, cord, andmembranes was the principal cause pre-venting the infant mortality rate fkomdecreasing more than it did.
Differences between infant mortalityrates for white and black infants by causeare reflected in diilerences in ranking ofthe leading causes of infant death as wellas in dtierences in cause-specific infantmortality rates. Congenital anomalies wasthe leading cause of death for whiteinfants, followed by Sudden infant deathsyndrome, Disorders relating to short
gestation and unspecified low birth-weight, and Respiratory distress syn-drome. Together these four causesaccounted for 55 percent of white infantdeaths. In contras~ for black infants theleading cause of death was Disordersrelating to short gestation and unspecifiedlow birthweight, followed by Congenitalanomalies, Sudden infant death syn-drome, &d Respiratory distress syn-drome. These four causes accounted for50 percent of all black infant deaths.
Although the difference betweenblack and white infant mortality ratesvaried by cause, the risk was higher forblack than for white infants for all theleading causes. Expressed as the ratio ofthe infant mortality rate for black infants
to that for white infants, beginning withthe highest ratio, the leading causesranked are Disorders relating to shortgestation and unspecified low birthweight(5.0); Yneumonia and influenza (2.9);Respiratory distress syndrome and Infec-tions specific to the perinatal period (2.5each); Newborn affected by maternalcomplications of pregnancy (2.3);Sudden infant death syndrome, Accidentsand adverse effects, and Intrauterinehypoxia and birth asphyxia (2.2 each);Newborn affected by complications ofplacen~ cord, and membranes (2.1); andCongenital anomalies (1.2).
Beginning with this repo~ the livebirth data used as denominators for calcu-lating infant mortality rates have beenretabulated by race of mother for theyears 1980-88. This change makes theserates consistent with those for the yearssince 1989 when the National Center forHealth Statistics (NCHS) began to tabu-late births by race of mother. Before 1989infant mortality rates had been calculatedwith live births tabulated by race of child(For additional detail, see “Technicalnotes.”)
Hispanic infant mortality
The infant mortality rate was 6.8deaths to Hispanic infants under 1 year ofage per 1,000 live births in an area com-prised of 48 States and the District ofColumbia. This was the same as the ratefor non-Hispanic white infants. Amongspecified subgroups of the Hispanicpopulation, the mortality rate forMexican infants was 6.8 deaths to infantsunder 1 year of age per 1,000 live births,7.8 for Puerto Rican infants, and 6.2 forCuban infants. Infant mortality rates byspectied Hispanic origin and race fornon-Hispanic origin may be somewhatunderstated (see “Technical notes”).
Maternal mortality
In 1992, 318 women were reportedto have died of maternal causes (table F),compared with 323 in 1991. As in pre-vious years, the number does not includeall deaths occurring to pregnant women,but only to those deaths assigned to Com-plications of pregnancy, childbirth, andthe puerpenum (JCD-9 Nos. 630-676).The maternal mortality rate for 1992 was

7.8 deaths per 100,000 live births, com-pared with a rate of 7.9 in 1991. The
difference in the rate between the 2 yearswas not statistically significant.
Black women have a higher risk ofmaternal death than white women. In
1992 the maternal mortality rate for blackwomen was 20.8, 4.2 times the rate of 5.0for white women. The change in thetabulation by race of live births beginning
with data for 1989 affects maternal mor-tality rates by race as it does infantmortality rates because counts of live
births comprise the denominator ofmaternal mortality rates (see “Technicalnotes”).
Report of autopsy
For 1992 all States requested infor-mation on the death certificate as towhether autopsies were performed. Theywere reported as performed on 224,071
deeedents, or 10.3 percent of the deathsthat occurred in 1992, a reduction from
the 10.8 percent reported for the previousyear. This continues the downward trend
in the percent of deaths autopsied. Thepercent autopsied for all causes of death
combined was heavily influenced by the
low rates for the three leading causes of
death—Diseases of heart (7 percent);Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues (3 percent); and Cerebrovascular
diseases (3 percent). Among the 15
leading causes of death, the highest per-cents reported were for traumatic
causes—Homicide and legal intervention
(97 percent), Suicide (56 percent), and
Accidents and adverse effects (49 per-
cent). The highest percents for nontrau-matic causes were for Certain conditions
originating in the perinatal period (22percent) and Chronic liver disease and
cirrhosis (15 percent).

Nature and sources of data
Data in this report are based oninformation from all death certificatesfiled in the 50 States and the District ofColumbia. The U.S. Standard Certificateof Death was revised in 1989; for addi-tional details see the 1989 revision of theU.S. standard certificates and reports (6)and Technical Appendix of T4talStat&ticsof the United States, 1989, Volume II,Mortality, Part A (9).
Mortality statistics are based oninformation coded by the States and pro-vided to the NCHS through the VitalStatistics Cooperative Program (VSCP)and from copies of the original certifi-cates received by NCHS from the Stateregistration offices. In 1992 all the Statesand the District of Columbia participatedin this program and submitted part or allof the mortality data for 1992 on com-puter tape to NCHS. The 32 States in theVSCP that submitted preceded medicaldata for all deaths on computer tapes areAlaska, Arkansas, California, Ccdorado,Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho,Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine,Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana,Nebraska, New Hampshire, New YorkState (excluding New York City), NorthCarolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania,South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia,Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.In 1992 Delaware, Maine, Montana,North Dakota, Vermont, and Wyomingcontracted with a private company toprovide NCHS with preceded medicaldata. Kansas continued to provide themedical data for Alaska. Iowa providedpreceded medical data for Idaho. Theremaining 18 VSCP States, New YorkCity, and the District of Columbia sub-mitted copies of the original certificatesfrom which NCHS coded the medicaldata. For 1992 all States submitted pre-ceded demographic data for all deaths.
Data for the entire United Statesrefer to events occurring within theUnited States. Data shown for geographicareas are by place of residence. Begin-ning with 1970 mortality statisticsexclude deaths of nonresidents of theUnited States. All data exclude fetaldeaths.
Race
Quality of race data+% number ofstudies have been conducted on the reli-ability of race reported on the death cer-tificate by comparing race on the deathcertificate with that reported on anotherdata collection instrument, such as thecensus or a survey. Differences may arisebecause of differences in who providesrace information on the comparedrecords. Race information on the deathcertificate is reported by the funeraldirector as provided by an informant or inthe absence of an informant, on the basisof observation. In contrast, race on thecensus or on the Current PopulationSurvey is self-reported and, therefore,may be considered more valid. A highlevel of agreement between the deathcertificate and the census or survey reportis essential to assure unbiased death ratesby race.
Results from several studies (10-12)show that persons self-reported asAmerican Indian or Asian on census orsurvey records were sometimes reported,as white on the death certificate. The neteffect of misclassification is an underesti-mation of deaths and death rates for thesmaller minori~ races.
Other races and race not stated —Beginning in 1992 all records coded as“Other races” (0.01 percent of the totaldeaths) were assigned to the specifiednonwhite race of the previous record.Records for which ram was unknown,not stated, or not classifiable (0.26 per-cent of the total deaths) were assigned theracial designation of the previous record.
Cause-of-death classification
The mortality statistics presentedhere were compiled in accordance withthe World Health Organization (WHO)regulations, which speci~ that membernations classify causes of death by thecurrent Manual of the International Sta-tistical Classification of Diseases, Inju-ries, and Causes ofDeath (13). Causes ofdeath for 1979-92 were classifiedaccording to the manual. For earlier yearscauses of death were classified accordingto the revisions then in use—1968-78,Eighth Revisio~ 1958-67, Seventh Revi-sion; and 1949–57, Sixth Revision.Changes in classifkation of causes ofdeath due to these revisions may result in
discontinuities in cause-of-death trends.Consequently, cause-of-death compari-sons among revisions require consider-ation of comparability ratios and, whereavailable, estimates of their standarderrors. ‘Comparability ratios between theEighth and Ninth Revisions, between theSeventh and Eighth Revisions, andbetween the Sixth and Seventh Revisionsmay be found in other NCHS reports(14-16).
Besides specifying the classitkation,WHO regulations outline the form ofmedical cefication and the proceduresto be used in coding cause of death.Cause-of-death data presented in thispublication were coded by proceduresoutlined in annual issues of the NCHSInstruction Manual (17–19).
Prior to data for 1968, mortalitymedical data were based on manualcoding of an underlying cause of deathfor each certificate in accordance withWHO rules. Effective with data year1968, NCHS converted to computerizedcoding of the underlying cause andmanual coding of all causes (multiplecauses) on the death ceticate. In thissystem, called Automated Classificationof Medical Entities (ACME) (20), themultiple cause codes serve as inputs tothe computer software that employsWHO rules to select the underlyingcause. Many States also have imple-mented ACME and provide multiplecause and underlying cause data toNCHS in electronic form.
Beginning with data year 1990,another computer system was imple-mented. This system, called MortalityMedieal Indexing, Classification, andRetrieval (MICAR) (21,22), automatescoding multiple causes of death. In addi-tion, MICAR can provide more detailedinformation on the conditions reported ondeath certificates than is availablethrough the International Classification ofDiseases (ICD) code structure. In the firstyear of implementation, only about 5percent (94,372) of the Nation’s deathrecords were coded using MICAR withsubsequent processing through ACME.For 1992 approximately 35 percent(800,000) of the Nation’s death recordswere multiple-cause coded usinghIICAR. In addition to the four Statesthat implemented MICAR in 1991(Arkansas, Florida, Indian% and Wash-
70 ~ Monthly Wtal Statktics Report ● Vol. 43, No. 6(S) ● March 22, 1995 ~
ington), on at least a portion of their data,the following States implementedMICAR beginning with 1992 data:Georgia, Maryland, New Hampshire, andVermont. NCHS expanded the use ofMICAR to code most of the records fromthe following States: Alabama, Arizona,Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky,Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey,New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, RhodeIsland, South Dakot% Tennessee, Utah,West Virginia, the District of Columbia,and New York City. The remainder of thenational file was processed by eitherNCHS or the States using only theACME system.
In this report tabulations of cause-of-death statistics are based solely on theunderlying cause of death. The under-lying cause is defined by WHO as thedisease or injury that initiated thesequence of events leading directly todeath or as the circumstances of the acci-dent or violence that produced the fatalinjury. It is selected from the conditionsentered by the physician in the cause-of-death section of the death certificate.When more than one cause or conditionis entered by the physician, the under-lying cause is determined by thesequence of conditions on the certificate,provisions of the ICD, and associatedselection rules. Generally, more medicalinformation is reported on death certifi-cates than is directly reflected in theunderlying cause of death.
Codes for HIV infection
Beginning with data for 1987, NCHSintroduced category numbers *042-*044for classifying and coding Human immu-nodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Theasterisk before the category numbersindicates that these codes are not part ofthe Ninth Revision of the InternationalClassification of Diseases (ICD-9).Deaths classified to HIV infection for1991–92 are in table 13. They areincluded, but not shown separately, in thecategory “All other infectious and para-sitic diseases” in the List of 72 SelectedCauses of Death and in the category“Remainder of infectious and parasiticdiseases” in the List of 61 SelectedCauses of Infant Deaths. Before 1987deaths involving HIV infection were clas-sified to “Deficiency of cell-mediated
immunit y“ (ICD-9 No. 279.1), containedin the category “All other diseases”; to“Pneumocystosis” (ICD-9 No. 136.3),contained in the category “All otherinfectious and parasitic diseases”; to“Malignant neoplasms, including neo-plasms of lymphatic and hematopoietictissues”; and to a number of other causes.As a consequence, cause-of-death databeginning with 1987 are not strictly com-parable with data for previous years.
For data years 1983-86, acquiredimmunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) andHIV infection when reported on the deathcertificate were assigned to the category“Deficiency of cell-mediated immunity”(ICD-9 No. 279.1). Because the selectionrules for underlying cause of death weredeveloped before the identification ofAIDS, other conditions mentioned on thedeath certificate rather than category No.279.1 were often selected as the under-lying cause of death during this period.Also, this category was not uniquely spe-cific for HIV conditions. As mentioned inmore detail in previous reports for1984-86 (23-25), the number of deathcertificates that had mention of conditionscoded to ICW9 No. 279.1 was 2,943 for1984, 6,040 for 1985, and 10,900 for1986. It is believed that HIV infectionwas involved in most of these deaths.
Firearm deaths
Causes of death attributable tofirearm mortality include ICD-9 No.E922, Accident caused by firearm mis-sile; Nos. E955.O-E955.4, Suicide andself-inflicted injury by firearms; Nos.E965.O-E965.4 and E970, Assault byfirearms and legal intervention; and Nos.E985.&E985.4, Injury by firearms, unde-termined whether accidentally or pur-posely inflicted. Injury by firearm causesexclude explosives and other causes indi-rectly related to firearms.
Drug-induced deaths
Causesof death attributableinduced mortality include ICD-9

Educational attainment
Beginning with the 1989 data year,mortality data on educational attainmentare being tabulated from infcmnationreported on the death certificate. As aresult of the revision of the U.S. StandardCertificate of Death (6), an item indi-cating educational attainment was addedto the certificates of numerous States.Mortality data on educational attainmentfor 1992 are based on deaths to residentsof the 42 States and the District ofColumbia whose data were approxi-mately 80 percent or more complete on aplace-of-occurrence basis. These 42States are Alabama, Alaska, Arizona,Arkansas, California, Colorado, Dela-ware, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois,Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine,Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Mon-tana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire,New Jersey, New Mexico, North Caro-lina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregou, Penn-sylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee,Texas, Utah, Vermont, Vkginia, Wash-ington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Quality of reporting of cause ofdeath
One index of the quality of reportingcauses of death is the proportion of deathcertificates coded to the Ninth RevisiowChapter XVI; Symptoms, signs, and ill-defined conditions (ICD-9 Nos.780-799). Although deaths occur forwhich the underlying causes are impos-sible to determine, this proportion indi-cates the care and consideration given tothe certification by the medical certifier.This proportion also may be used as arough measure of the specificity of themedical diagnoses made by the certifierin various areas. In 1992, 1.08 percent ofall reported deaths in the United Stateswere assigned to Symptoms, signs, andill-defined conditions (ICD-9 Nos.780-799), compared with 1.12 percent in1991. However, trends in the percent ofdeaths assigned to this category vary byage. Although the percent of deaths fromthis cause for all ages combined generallyhas remained stable since 1980, decreaseshave occurred for 10-year age gxoupshorn 25 to 44 years since 1988. Between1991 and 1992 the percent decreased forall age groups, except for those 15-24years, 55-64 years, and 85 years andover.
Population bases forcomputing rates
The population used for computingdeath rates in this report (furnished by theU.S. Bureau of the Census) represents thepopulation residing in the specified area.Death rates for 1992 are based on popu-lation estimates as of July 1, 1992(26,27). The estimates are based on the1990 census counts. The 1990 censuscounts by race were modified to be con-sistent with U.S. Office of Managementand Budget categories and historical cat-egories for death data (28).
Infant mortality rates in figure 5 andtables E and 24-28 are the most com-monly used index for measuring the riskof dying during the first year of life. Theyare calculated by dividing the number ofinfant deaths in a calendar year by thenumber of live births registered for thesame period and are presented as ratesper 1,000 or per 100,000 live births.Infant mortality rates use the number oflive births in the denominator to approxi-
mate the population at risk of dyingbefore the first birthday.
In contrast to infant mortality ratesbased on live births, infant death rates infigure 2 and tables& 2, 5,8, and 13 arebased on the estimated population under1 year of age. Infant death rates thatappear in tabulations of age-spec%cdeath rates are calculated by dividing thenumber of infant deaths in a calendaryear by the midyear population of infantsunder 1 year of age (estimated frombirths occurring in the 12-month periodending with June) and are presented asrates per 100,000 population in this agegroup. Because of differences in thedenominators, infant death rates maydiffer from infant mortality rates.
Race for infant and maternalmortality rates
Beginning with the 1989 data year,the method of tabulating live births byrace was changed horn race of child torace of mother. This change affects infantand maternal mortality rates because livebirths comprise the denominator of theserates. In 1989-92, as in previous years,infant and maternal deaths continue to betabulated by the race of the decedent.
As noted in detail in the TechnicalAppendix to T4talStatistics of the UnitedStates, 1989, Volume I, Natality (29),beginning with 1989, live births are tabu-lated primarily by race of mother, asreported directly on the birth ceticate.Before 1989 birth tabulations were byrace of child, as determined statisticallyby an algorithm based on race as reportedfor the mother and father. Briefly, in casesof mixed parentage where only oneparent was white, the child was assignedto the other parent’s race. When neitherparent was white, the child was assignedthe race of the father, except if eitherparent was Hawaiian, the child wasassigned to Hawaiian. If race was notreported for one parent, the child wasassigned the race of the parent for whomrace was given.
The change in tabulating live birthsby race reflects three factors over the pasttwo decades—the topical content of thebirth certificate has been expanded toinclude considerable health and demo-graphic information related to the mother,the increasing incidence of interracial
parentage, and the growing proportion ofbirths for which no information on thefather is reported.
Quantitatively, the change in thebasis for tabulating live births by raceresults in more white births and fewerblack births and bkths of other races.Consequently, infant and maternal mor-tality rates under the new tabulating pro-cedure tend to be about 2 percent lowerfor white infants and about 5 percenthigher for black infants than they arewhen computed by the previous methodof tabulating live births by race of child.Rates for most other minority races alsoare higher when computed by race ofmother (9).
Trend data by race in this report havebeen retabulated by race of mother for allyears beginning with the 1980 data year.The retabulation provides more uniformdata to those analyzing infant andmaternal mortality data, particularly trenddata. To facilitate continuity and ease ofinterpretation, rates for 1980 show datafor race of mother and race of child. Thiswill make it possible to distinguish theeffects of this change from real changesin the data. The text in this report focuseson live birth data tabulated by race ofmother except where trends beginningbefore 1980 are discussed. In the lattercase, the analysis is based on data tabu-lated by race of child.
Infant mortality rates for specifiedrace may be biased, because of inconsis-tencies in reporting race between thebirth and death certificates for the sameinfant. Estimates of reporting bias havebeen made by comparing rates based onthe linked fNe of infant deaths and livebirths with those where the race of infantdeath is based on information from thedeath certificate (9).
Cause-of-death rankings
The cause-of-death ranldngs in figure4 and tables B-D, 5, 6, 16, and 30 arebased on the List of 72 Selected Causesof Death and HIV infection (ICD-9 Nos.*042-*044); the cause-of-death rankingfor infants in table 26 is based on the Listof 61 Selected Causes of Infant Deathand I-W infection. HIV infection wasadded to the lists of rankable causeseffective with data year 1987.

The group titles Major cardiovas-cular diseases and Symptoms, signs, andill-defined conditions are not ranked fromthe List of 72 Selected Cause% Certainconditions originating in the perinatalperiod and Symptoms, signs, and ill-defined conditions are not ranked fromthe List of 61 Selected Causes of InfantDeath. In addition, category titles thatbegin with the words “Other” and “Allother” are not ranked to determine theleading causes of death. When one of thetitles that represents a subtotal is ranked(for example, Tuberculosis), its compo-nent parts are not ranked (in this case,Tuberculosis of respiratory” systemOther tuberculosis).
Age-adjusted death rates
and
Age-adjusted death rates are used tomake comparisons of relative mortalityrisks across groups and over time. How-ever, they should be viewed as constructsor indexes rather than as direct or actualmeasures of mortality risk. Statistically,they are weighted averages of the age-specific death rates, where the weightsrepresent the fixed population proportionsby age (30). The age-adjusted rates pre-sented in this report were computed bythe direct method, that is, by applying theage-specific death rates for a given causeof death to the U.S. standard millionpopulation (relative age distribution of1940 enumerated population of theUnited States totaling 1,000,000 (31)).By using the same standard population,the rates for the total population and foreach race-sex group were adjusted sepa-rately. The age-adjusted rates were basedon 10-year age groups. It is important notto compare age-adjusted death rates withcrude rates.
Random variation
Although the mortality data in thisreport (except data for 1972) are notsubject to sampling error, they may beaffected by random variation in thenumber of deaths involved. When thenumber of events is small (perhaps lessthan 100) and the probability of such anevent is small, considerable caution mustbe observed in interpreting the data. Suchinfrequent events may be assumed tofollow a Poisson probability distribution,
For this distribution, a simple approxima-tion may be used to estimate the confi-dence interval, as follows:
If N is the number of registereddeaths in the population and R is thecorresponding rate, the chances are 19 in20 (approximate 95-percent confidenceinterval) that
L N–2fiand N+ 2@
covers the “true” number of events.
2. R–2> and R+2_!!_m m
covers the “true” rate.
If the rate RI corresponding to NIevents is compared with the rate R2 cor-responding to Nz events, the differencebetween the two rates may be regarded asstatistically significant if it exceeds
Additional information on randomvariation may be found in the TechnicalAppendix of Wal Statistics of the UnitedStates, 1989 (9).
Infant and maternal mortalityrates-Comparisons made in the textamong infant, neonatal, postneonatal, andmaternal mortality rates, unless otherwisespecified, are statistically significant atthe 0.05 level of significance. Lack ofcomment in the text about any two ratesdoes not mean that the difference wastested and found not to be significant atthis level.
Rates, proportions, and ratios
Beginning with 1989 dat~ anasterisk is shown in place of a rate basedfewer than 20 deaths. These rates have arelative standard error of 23 percent ormore and are, therefore, considered statis-tically unreliable. For age-adjusted deathrates, this criterion is applied to the sumof the age-specific deaths.
Life tabies
U.S. abridged life tables are con-structed by reference to a standard lifetable (32).
Causes of death contributingto changes in iife expectancy
Causes of death contributing tochanges in life expectancy were esti-mated using a Iife table partitioning tech-nique. The method partitions changesinto component additive parts. Thismethod identifies the causes of deathhaving the greatest influence, positive ornegative, on changes in life expectancy(4,33).
Hispanic origin
For 1992 mortality data for theHispanic-origin population are baaed ondeaths to residents of 48 States and theDistrict of Columbia whose data wereapproximately 80 percent or more com-plete on a place-of-occurrence basis andconsidered to be sufficiently comparableto be used for analysis. Data include allStates except New Hampshire and Okla-homa, which were excluded because theirdeath certificates did not include an itemto identify Hispanic or ethnic origin.
Infant mortality rates for theHispanic-origin population are based onnumbers of resident infant deathsreported to be of Hispanic origin andnumbers of resident live births lbyHis-panic origin of mother for the same 48States and the District of Columbia. Incomputing infant mortality rates, deathsand live births of unknown origin are notdistributed among the specified Hispanicand non-Hispanic groups. Beeause thepercent of infant deaths of unknownorigin was 2.4 and the percent of livebirths of unknown origin was 1.0 for the48 States and the District of Columbia for1992, infant mortality rates in this reportby specified Hispanic origin and race fornon-Hispanic origin may be urideresti-mated.
Infant mortality rates by Hispanicorigin may be biased, because of incon-sistencies in reporting Hispanic originbetween the birth and death certificatesfor the same infant. Estimates ofreporting bias have been made by com-paring rates based on the linked file ofinfant deaths and live births with thosewhere the race of infant death is based oninformation from the death certificate (9).
