The Hispanic population in the United States has lower overall mortality and higher life expectancy at birth than the non-Hispanic white and non-Hispanic black populations. The expectation has been that the Hispanic population should exhibit a mortality profile that is similar to that of the non-Hispanic black population, not one that is advantaged relative to the non-Hispanic white population (1-4). In this report, differences in the leading causes of death between the Hispanic and non-Hispanic white and black populations are explored to determine how they contributed to the life expectancy advantage of the Hispanic population in 2013.
在美国，西班牙裔人口的总体死亡率低于非西班牙裔白人和非西班牙裔黑人，出生时预期寿命更长。一直以来的预期是，西班牙裔人口的死亡率情况应与非西班牙裔黑人相似，而非相对于非西班牙裔白人具有优势(1-4)。在本报告中，探讨了西班牙裔与非西班牙裔白人和黑人之间主要死因的差异，以确定这些差异如何导致了2013年西班牙裔人口的预期寿命优势。
