  • 1. Sex differences in COVID-19 deaths in the early months of the pandemic in Canada: An examination with an immigration lens
    Articles and reports: 82-003-X202301100001
    Description: At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an overrepresentation of males in COVID-19 deaths worldwide, with Canada reporting more female COVID-19 deaths. This study examines the overrepresentation of female COVID-19 deaths in Canada, with an immigration lens. This study also evaluates whether there is a sex difference in COVID-19 deaths by immigrant status in Canada and, if so, for which age groups and in which provinces or census metropolitan areas (CMAs).

  • 2. Deaths from congenital anomalies in Canada, 1974 to 2012 Archived
    Stats in brief: 82-624-X201600114649
    Description:

    Congenital anomalies, commonly referred to as birth defects, describe conditions that develop in the fetus at the time of conception or during pregnancy. This article presents data on trends in the average age at death, and death rates from five of the most common congenital anomalies: circulatory anomalies; Spina Bifida; and three chromosomal anomalies-Down syndrome, Edwards' syndrome and Patau's syndrome. Data from the 1974 to 2012 Canadian Vital Statistics-Deaths Database will be used to examine differences in the death rate due to congenital anomalies, among infants in Canada.

  • 3. Deaths involving sepsis in Canada Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-624-X201600114308

    This article explores deaths in Canada that involved sepsis, a serious medical condition caused by an overwhelming immune response to an infection. Sepsis-associated mortality rates are presented over time and by sex, age and underlying cause of death. The article uses multiple-causes-of-death data from the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death Database. Data from the years 2000 to 2011 are used when discussing changes over time.

    Articles and reports: 82-624-X201500114212
    Description:

    This article presents relative survival ratios for ovarian cancer at the national level. Data from the Canadian Cancer Registry are used to estimate ratios for one, five and ten year survival, by age at diagnosis and over time.

    The time period is from 1992—1994 to 2006—2008.

  • 6. Trends in the incidence and mortality of female reproductive system cancers Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-624-X201500114095
    Description:

    This article examines incidence and mortality rates for the three most common types of female reproductive system cancer — uterus, ovary and cervix. Data from the Canadian Cancer Registry and the Canadian Vital Statistics Death Database are used to analyze changes over time and differential risk by age.

  • 7. Suicide rates: An overview Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-624-X201200111696

  • 8. The healthy immigrant effect and mortality rates Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100411588
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This article presents analysis using the 1991 to 2001 Canadian census mortality follow-up study to explore associations between mortality and birthplace and period of immigration.

    Release date: 2011-11-16
  • 9. Insights into the Healthy Immigrant Effect: Mortality by Period of Immigration and Birthplace Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-622-X2011008
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    The 1991 to 2001 census mortality follow-up study permits analysis of the healthy immigrant effect-the dominant hypothesis in immigrant health research-by world region of birth and for different areas of Canada. This hypothesis suggests that immigrants arrive with better health than the Canadian-born population, but that this health advantage tends to disappear over time. The results of this study provide overall support for this trend. However, similar to earlier research, the analysis of age-standardized mortality rates by world region of origin, period of immigration and residence reveals underlying differences that may not be evident when only the overall results are examined.

  • 10. Disparities in life expectancy at birth Archived
    Articles and reports: 82-624-X201100111427
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This article examines the life expectancy of Canadians within an international and national context. A variety of factors related to differences in life expectancy are explored including: smoking, drinking, and obesity; socio-economic variables such as gender, education, and income; and other factors such as population density and remoteness.
