Bronchus
Malignant Neoplasms of Trachea
Using the table below, reproduced from page 152 of the Friis and Sellers (2014) text, calculate age-specific death rates for the category of malignant neoplasms of trachea, bronchus, and lung. What inferences can be made from the age-specific death rates for malignant neoplasms of trachea, bronchus, and lung?
Table 3A-1: Malignant Neoplasms of Trachea, Bronchus, and Lung Deaths by Age Group, United States, 2003:
Age (Years)
Malignant Neoplasms of
Trachea, Bronchus, and
Lung* Deaths
Using tables Table 3A-2 and Table 3A-3below, reproduced from page 153 of the Friis and Sellers (2014) text, answer the assignment questions found after the tables.
Table 3A–2Mortality by Selected Age Groups, Males and Females, United States, 2003:
Table 3A–3Total Mortality from Selected Causes, Males and Females, United States, 2003:
Malignant Neoplasms
Infant Deaths
Maternal Deaths
For purposes of calculation:
The total population is 2003 was 290,810,789 (males = 143,037,290; females = 147,773,499).
For 2003, total number of live births was 4,089,950.
In your Week Two assignment, please answer the following questions related to the measures of morbidity and mortality:
Calculate the crude death rates (per 100,000) for accidents, malignant neoplasms, and Alzheimer's disease. Repeat these calculations for males and females separately.
Calculate the cause-specific death rates (per 100,000) for accidents, malignant neoplasms, and Alzheimer's disease. Repeat these calculations for males and females separately.
What are the Proportional Mortality Ratios (PMR) (percent) for accidents, malignant neoplasms, and Alzheimer's disease? Repeat these calculations for males and females separately.
Calculate the maternal mortality rate (per 100,000 live births).
Calculate the infant mortality rate (per 1,000 live births).
Calculate the crude birth rate (per 1,000 population).
levant IT software can relieve pressure save time and increase accuracy however the scope of the role would be far greater. 3.3 Analyse key factors & trends impacting on a school: See Appendix 2: Political: Brexit is causing a lot of uncertainty with our European students and teachers; Brexit could cause a significant reduction in students from across Europe and reduce the diversity in schools also increase in staffing problems due to the lack of teachers from European countries filling in posts, teachers who bring new cultures and approaches to our schools and community. With so much turmoil in the government school policies like the national funding formula has been pushed back. Economic: The rise in the minimum wage enables families to have more disposal income, therefore working extra hours or a second job may not be necessary which enables parents to devote more time to their children's schooling and activities. Social: Schools are adopting specific behaviours to improve outcomes for disadvantaged pupils, implementing community centered strategies for parent involvement, monitoring of progress and providing individual learning support; schools have systems in place for early identification and intervention. Pupil premium awarded to raise attainment and also different strategies are used to engage with the disadvantaged families to increase parental engagement and improve academic performance. Technological: Smart apps and devices are fast and furious, schools are confronted with challenging issues from online risks such as violation of privacy or fraud, schools are expected to educate children by raising awareness about these risks and how to avoid them, however budget restrictions is causing to be a barrier on latest ICT equipment and software. 3.4 Explain how a range of analytical tools can be used to investigate & address key management issues within a school: Using analytical tools widens the approach of thinking, enabling SBMs to solve a problem, be predictive and be implementable. I believe the aim of using analytical tools is to sharpen the focus of the analysis and to ensure methodical, balanced approach, e.g. SWOT- helps to focus on internal and external factors, which SBMs can use to identify issues as well as barriers and solutions, useful to spot danger and improve weakness. PESTLE tool can be used to analyse various external factors, which impact schools.>
