To assess the numerical properties of two recently published estimation techniques for excess mortality based on aggregated data about diabetes in Germany.
Application of the new methods to the claims data yields implausible findings for the excess mortality of type 2 diabetes in ages below 50 years of age.
评估两种最近发表的基于德国糖尿病汇总数据的超额死亡率估计技术的数值特性。
