This paper proposes the use of natality data and an imputation\u2010based method to estimate age\u2010specific mortality incidence rates in the face of this missing information. By utilizing previously determined probabilities of birth, a birth date and death date are imputed for every decedent in the dataset. Thus, the birth cohort of each individual is imputed, and the total on\u2010study time can be calculated. This idea is implemented in two approaches for estimation of mortality incidence rates. The first is an extension of a person\u2010time approach, while the second is an extension of a life table approach. Monte Carlo simulations showed that both approaches perform well in comparison to the ideal complete data methods, but that the person\u2010time method is preferred. An application to Tay\u2013Sachs disease is demonstrated. It is concluded that the imputation methods proposed provide valid estimates of the incidence of death from death certificate data without the need for additional assumptions under which usual mortality rates provide valid estimates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bimj.201400008","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,16]],"date-time":"2015-06-16T17:57:40Z","timestamp":1434477460000},"page":"885-896","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Mortality incidence estimation using federal death certificate and natality data with an application to Tay\u2013Sachs disease"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"57","author":[{"given":"Kabir","family":"Jalal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics University at Buffalo  804 Kimball Tower Buffalo NY 14214 USA"},{"name":"Population Health Observatory School of Public Health and Health Professions University at Buffalo  808 Kimball Tower Buffalo NY 14214 USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Randy L.","family":"Carter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics University at Buffalo  725 Kimball Tower Buffalo NY 14214 USA"},{"name":"Population Health Observatory School of Public Health and Health Professions University at Buffalo  808 Kimball Tower Buffalo NY 14214 USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","unstructured":"Arias E.(2014).
