Jose Andrade @josecas91.bsky.social · 10/04/2026New paper out in BMJ Open 🎉 doi.org/10.1136/bmjo... We revisit US longevity trends and find: 👉 Life expectancy increased in all states (1941–2000 cohorts) 👉 Inequalities exist, but are smaller than previously suggested 👉 The key question now is why progress slowed 051

Reposted by Jose AndradeProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences @pnas.org · 17/09/2025Life expectancy has increased in high-income countries over the past century, but mortality forecasting methods suggest people living today won’t see dramatic gains. Even people born in 2000 are unlikely to reach a life expectancy of 100. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... 052

The data are 100 replicates from a multiple imputation through chained equations as described in Van Buuren and Groothuis-Oudshoorn (2011) <<a href="https://doi.org/10.18637%2Fjss.v045.i03" target="_top">doi:10.18637/jss.v045.i03</a>>. With the replicates the user can examine four human rights violations that occurred in the Colombian conflict accounting for the impact of missing fields and fully missing observations. 032
