中国肢体残疾人口预期寿命研究

Life expectancy of people with physical disabilities in China

目的估算中国肢体残疾人口预期寿命。方法基于2007--2010年监测肢体残疾人口平均死亡率，使用生命表方法估算不同特征人口预期寿命及其标准误（sx）。结果（1）肢体残疾人口女性预期寿命高于男性，女性和男性0岁预期寿命分别是63岁（sx=2．6）和55岁（sx=3．1）；（2）35～50岁人口预期寿命城镇高于农村；（3）轻度肢体残疾人口预期寿命高于重度残疾人口，0岁预期寿命分别为62．5岁（sx=2．4）和42岁（sx=5．4）；（4）肢体残疾人口预期寿命低于中国普通人群，男性和女性0岁预期寿命差距分别为17．1岁和12．7岁。结论中国肢体残疾人口死亡水平较高，需要采取措施提高其预期寿命。

Objective To estimate the life expectancy of persons with physical disabilities in China based on data related to representative national disability. Methods Life table technique was used to estimate the life expectancy and its standard error by various characteristics on the basis of average mortality rates from the monitoring cases during 2007-2010. Results （1）Females were expected to live longer than males. The life expectancy at birth for females was 63 years with standard error（SE） =2.6 while for males it was 55 years （SE=3.1）. （2） Persons aged 35-50 in urban areas had higher life expectancy than those in rural areas. （3）Life expectancy of persons with mild disability 62.5 years （SE = 2.4） ] was higher than that of persons with severe disability [ 42 years （ SE = 5.4） 1. （4） Life expectancies of persons with physical disability were much lower than that of the Chinese general population. Gaps of male and female life expectancy at birth were 17.1 years and 12.7 years, respectively. Conclusion Persons with physical disability had higher mortality and actions should be taken to improve their life expectancy, accordingly.
