Mortality of Life‐Insured Swedish Cats during 1999–2006: Age, Breed, Sex, and Diagnosis 2009-09-22 .txt text/plain 4414 241 58 The aim was to describe patterns of mortality in Swedish cats covered by a life insurance plan between 1999 and 2006, with respect to sex, age, breed, and diagnosis and to present survival to various ages crudely, by breed and time period. Variables used in this study included cat identification, sex, date of birth, breed, life insurance coverage, and diagnostic codes for cause of death. Age-standardized MRs (ASMR, which adjusts for differences in age distributions across groups or categories) have been calculated both for the whole period and yearly and are expressed as deaths per 10,000 CYAR (data on age category 9 o 10 years and over were amalgamated for standardization). Standard errors times 1.96 yielded 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for ASMRs 8 and age category-specific MRs. 9 Age standardized MRs, and MRs, respectively, have been calculated crudely, yearly, by sex, breed group, breed, diagnostic category, diagnosis, and by combinations thereof as well as for withdrawal unrelated to death. ./cache/cord-304365-al3p52uj.txt ./txt/cord-304365-al3p52uj.txt
