- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202301200002Description: The validity of survival estimates from cancer registry data depends, in part, on the identification of the deaths of deceased cancer patients. People whose deaths are missed seemingly live on forever and are informally referred to as “immortals”, and their presence in registry data can result in inflated survival estimates. This study assesses the issue of immortals in the Canadian Cancer Registry (CCR) using a recently proposed method that compares the survival of long-term survivors of cancers for which “statistical” cure has been reported with that of similar people from the general population.Release date: 2023-12-20
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300400001Description: To date, population estimates of hypertension prevalence among children and adolescents in Canada have been based on clinical guidelines in the National High Blood Pressure Education Program’s 2004 Fourth Report on the Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents (NHBPEP 2004). In 2017, the American Academy of Pediatrics published updated guidelines in Clinical Practice Guideline for Screening and Management of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents (AAP 2017), followed by Hypertension Canada in 2020 with its publication of Comprehensive Guidelines for the Prevention, Diagnosis, Risk Assessment, and Treatment of Hypertension in Adults and Children (HC 2020). This is the first study in Canada to compare the national estimates of the prevalence of child and adolescent hypertension based on AAP 2017 with estimates of prevalence based on NHBPEP 2004 and HC 2020. The main objectives of this analysis were to apply AAP 2017 and HC 2020 to all six cycles of Canadian Health Measures Survey data available to date and examine the effect on population estimates of hypertension prevalence by sex and age group among children and adolescents aged 6 to 17. This study also examines the impact of applying AAP 2017 across time and selected characteristics, describes those who are reclassified into a higher BP category under AAP 2017, and examines differences in hypertension prevalence resulting from applying HC 2020 versus AAP 2017.Release date: 2023-04-19

The Statistics Canada Biobank is a valuable source of nationally representative health information. It contains biospecimens collected from the Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS) and the Canadian COVID-19 Antibody and Health Survey (CCAHS). This data resource profile aims to provide an overview of the Statistics Canada Biobank to inform researchers and data users about the program and how it can be used as a resource for the advancement of health-related research.

This study describes the characteristics of residential postal codes of the Canadian population using the 2016 Census and determines how frequently these postal codes are matched to one or more dissemination areas, a unit of census geography.
Release date: 2020-06-17 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600614634Description:
This study analyzes results from the survey on Barriers to Care for People with Chronic Health Conditions to determine if spending of 5% or more of household income out-of-pocket on drugs and pharmaceutical products was associated with cost-related non-adherence.
Release date: 2016-06-15 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600614635Description:
The 2006 Participation and Activity Limitation Survey was used to study relationships between a child’s diagnosis status (autism spectrum disorders versus other neurodevelopmental diagnoses), a range of functional characteristics that were largely neurodevelopmental or psychological, and measures of childand family health and well-being.

This article provides information on Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias among Canadians aged 45 or older, using the 2010/2011 Canadian Community Health Survey, the 2011/2012 Survey of Neurological Conditions in Institutions in Canada, and the 2011 Survey on Living with Neurological Conditions in Canada.
Release date: 2016-05-18 - 8. Mortality from Alzheimer’s disease in Canada: A multiple-cause-of-death analysis, 2004 to 2011 ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X201600514614Description:
This study presents numbers and rates of Alzheimer’s disease-related mortality (underlying cause of death and a contributing cause) and examines changes between 2004 and 2011.
Release date: 2016-05-18 - 9. Deaths involving sepsis in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-624-X201600114308Description:
This article explores deaths in Canada that involved sepsis, a serious medical condition caused by an overwhelming immune response to an infection. Sepsis-associated mortality rates are presented over time and by sex, age and underlying cause of death. The article uses multiple-causes-of-death data from the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death Database. Data from the years 2000 to 2011 are used when discussing changes over time.
