This study aimed at ascertaining the standardized mortality ratios (SMR) for those with an intellectual disability (ID) in Finland.
We used the statistical database of the national insurance institution of Finland and Statistics Finland's mean population figures. We determined the number of individuals who received benefits (disability allowance, disability pension, or care allowance for pensioners) due to an ID diagnosis and the number of those whose benefit had been terminated due to death during the years 1996-2011.
SMR for females with a mild ID (IQ 50-69) was 2.8 (95% CI: 2.60-3.01) and for males 2.0 (95% CI: 1.88-2.14), and for females with a severe ID (IQ <50) 5.2 (95% CI: 4.99-5.50) and for males 2.6 (95% CI: 2.48-2.72).
This significant difference in the SMR figures between males and females with ID warrants further research.
本研究旨在确定芬兰智障人士的标准化死亡率(SMR)。
我们使用了芬兰国家保险机构的统计数据库以及芬兰统计局的平均人口数据。我们确定了1996年至2011年期间因智障诊断而领取福利(残疾津贴、残疾抚恤金或养老金领取者护理津贴)的人数以及因死亡福利已终止的人数。
轻度智障(智商50 - 69)女性的SMR为2.8(95%置信区间:2.60 - 3.01),男性为2.0(95%置信区间:1.88 - 2.14);重度智障(智商<50)女性的SMR为5.2(95%置信区间:4.99 - 5.50),男性为2.6(95%置信区间:2.48 - 2.72)。
智障男性和女性的SMR数据存在显著差异,值得进一步研究。
