In addition,-several control cards are- needed.to describe t e i t e characteristics o ftfaeeohartm d ten d ed the various options described above. QOMMEmS The major advantage o f using rates from a standard population is that no formal comparison, group need fee assembled. In the case o f retrospective cohort studies extending back m m y years* this is difficult Further* since the standard rates are based on a large mmhgr o f deaths* the ra te are relatively stable. ' The met o f s t a t e d . population rates has several disadvantage characteristics of the .study population which are relate! to death {or disease) may be different from those o f the s t a t e d population JM procedures described in this paper take account only -ofag$s, time, sex m d w e differences. No account can bo. made, for example, o f t ie effect o f cigarette smoking on differences in observed m d impeded rate.. The effects o f tins proMem m y fee studied in several ways. If available, a .standard population wMdi is s te r n ly simitar to the study population may fee selected (3). An estimate ofthe maximum impact erfconfounding due to .mnfomdtng variables can feeraarie ( /, IS). Thebest way to evaluate suspected causal relationships is to study them in diverse groups using.diverse standard' populations, or*,if possible, to conduct cohort studies using a formal comparison group. Another- dkadvsntag arises.if two o r more study cohorts are compared to- the s t a t e d population.'If relevant demographic characteristics differ between,the two study group*, inferences' comparing the two. groups may not necessarily fee made by comparing their experience relative to the standard population (id, 17% For example '*frelative survival, is .a ta c tio n o f age, and If two study cohorts have different age distributions, .age-adjusted, relative .survival ra te must be calculated. A second possibility is to compare the two '-groups directly by using one group as the standard-.population and the other as the study population. This option is Bvaikble In tteprojpam . The primary disadvantages o f studies using proportional mortality is'that disease m te are not obtained.

Data .of birth missing for 53 individualsTM SS`# ie missing for 15 individuale Conclusion: Thi DOES appear to be the missing cohort (!}. PS: Date of birth is needed far everyone in the cohort; see article by Monson cited by Zack/Suskind aa their source for their computer program, Pg* 327 saye ?fyear of survival" are needed. If we could get SS # for each of these individuals, perhaps Fingerhufc would let loose of her data on these individual exclusive of their names; I feel sure she has it all, but she won't give out the information, .claiming privacy rights for the, living persons. Just a thought. PPSs Xffll see Clapp on Saturday & will ask him'how best to get info on these individuals. y*-- -,,>s.-
