Les causes de décès aux grands âges en France, évolution récente

Abstract: Dans les pays les plus avancés, la mort survient de plus en plus aux grands âges. En France, par exemple, en 2016, 73 % des décès féminins se sont produits après 85 ans, alors que ce n’était le cas que de 41 % en 1975 et même seulement 25 % en 1950. Alors que le sujet paraissait jadis anecdotique, des chercheurs s’interrogent de plus en plus sur ce que peuvent être les causes de décès aux grands âges. Beaucoup, cependant, estiment que la question est relativement vaine car plus l’âge avance, plus les causes so… Show more

In addition to the fact that French birth cohorts are generally older than that of Italy (1883Italy ( -1901Italy ( vs. 1896Italy ( -1910, the lack of a cohort effect in our analysis might also come from the absence of clear mortality reductions after ages 90 to 92 in the French population (Meslé and Vallin 2020). It is therefore probably still too early to observe any mortality improvement among semi-and supercentenarians in our birth cohorts, hence the lack of a cohort effect.…”
