摘要：

The National Center for Health Statistics (Monthly Vital Statistics Report, 41 (1993) 1-36; Pediatrics, 92 (1993) 743-754) reported the life table for the total population of the United States, 1992, on the basis of vital statistics. The life table shows life expectancy, survival and death rate at various ages. Formulas expressing death rate, survival probability and life expectancy at various ages in US adults are constructed from the data of the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). A mathematical model of the 'probacent'-probability equation previously published by the author is employed in this study. Analysis of the computer-assisted predicted values and the data reported by the NCHS indicates that the formulas are accurate and reliable with a close agreement in expressing death rate, survival probability and life expectancy at various ages in US adults of 25 years of age and older. The formulas can determine the relationship between the age and the death rate, the survival probability or the life expectancy and may be of value for epidemiologic evaluation of US adults.
