Modeling of Years of Life Lost by Disease Status of Participants at Baseline Compared With Those Free of Diabetes, Stroke, and Myocardial Infarction (MI)
The estimates of cumulative survival from 40 years of age onward among the 8 baseline disease groups were calculated by applying hazard ratios (specific to age at risk and sex) for all-cause mortality associated with baseline disease status to US cause-specific death rates at the age of 40 years or older.
