Differences in cumulative mortality between adjacent five-year birth cohorts in more developed countries

NOTE: Differences in cumulative age-specific death rates from birth to various attained ages are expressed for adjacent birth cohorts. The calendar years appearing as labels separate birth dates of two five-year-wide birth cohorts. For example, the 1915 series shows cumulative mortality for the 1910–14 birth cohort minus cumulative mortality for the 1915–19 birth cohort. More detail is available from the authors.
