Life expectancy?
Q. Here is a paragraph, Life expectancy is the average age at death of the entire live-born population. In the middle of the nineteenth century, life expectancy in North America was 40 years, whereas now it is nearly 80 years. Thus, in those days, people must have been considered old at an age that we now consider the prime of life. whats the meaning of "the entire live-born population" ? whats the meaning of "the prime of life."

A. 'The entire live-born population' means those who were not stillborn, died at birth or near birth. 'The prime of life' is somewhere inbetween teenager and middle-aged, about 30-40 years old. I hope this helps.

A. Well It is with great pleasure that in September of this year I will celebrate my 19th year cured from acute biphenotypic leukemia, meaning i had both acute myelogenous and acute lymphocytic leukemias combined. This was all due to an unrelated bone marrow transplant. In 1990 when I had my transplant my chances of survivng were less than 7 percent. I know things have improved enormously since then but I dont believe that medicine alone can determine ones chances of survivng. One really must believe that the possibilty of surviving exists and keep focused. I know there were people in the hospital at the same time as I was who had alot greater "chances" than I did that didnt survive because the thought of cancer was almost like a death… [cont.]

What is the life expectancy of a petite cocker spaniel?
Q. My cocker is 13 years old and seems to be in fine shape. I am not OVERLY familiar with the breed as she was rescued at the age of 5. Any help on life expectancy and what to expect would be greatly appreciated. Serious answers only and please no jokes about impending doom, my wife will be reading this and it will get her really upset. Thanks for understanding. I greatly appreciate the input. We take great care of her as she is one of four that have been our personal rescues. I have never dealt with an older dog as all of the 40+ rescues my wife and I have done have mostly been 5 and under. I will definitely take the advice here. I am sure you guys will be hearing from me again.

Given proper care, and assuming there are no life-threatening conditions that you aren't aware of, don't be surprised if she has another 4 or 5 good years in her, and maybe more! And, my best vibes go out to you for rescuing a dog who, at the age of five, would have been passed over by most people. She has a very good home with you, indeed! And I'll bet she loves you just as much as you love her!

Is life expectancy likely to increase over time in the decades to come?
Q. I have seen in the almanac life expectancy was very little in the 1900's and has rose to the 70's mark. Should we expect it to raise into the 80's and 90's as we learn better method's of living? What is the life expectancy of my children born in 2004, 2005, 2007, and 2008? Will they have a chance to live longer than previous generations of past if nothing happens to them?

May I know life expectancy for those who went through coronary artery bypass surgery?
Q. Providing that they make conscious efforts to maintain healthy life. Using vein for this surgery affect the patient's life expectancy?
Asked by Pretty Sakura - Thu Jun 26 00:55:10 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Typically, the saphenous vein from the leg and the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) are used for the bypass. Veins used either have their valves removed or are turned around so that the valves in them do not occlude blood flow in the graft. LIMA grafts are longer-lasting than vein grafts, both because the artery is more robust than a vein and because, being already connected to the aorta, the LIMA need only be grafted at one end. For this reason, the LIMA is usually grafted to the left anterior descending artery (LAD), which supplies the left ventricle, the part of the heart that pumps oxygenated blood around the body. Alternatively, an artery such as the radial artery from the arm, may be used in place of a vein. This is believed to… [cont.]

A. Tachycardia is not a condition, but a group of conditions which cause a rapid heart beat. They vary from benign [not harmful] to life-threatening. There is not enough information in your description to say anything specific about your boyfriend's condition. In addition, treatment for certain tachycardias has changed greatly since your bf was a child. He should get his childhood records and sit down with a cardiologist to determine if there is any reason for concern.

A. Hi Charles, The jury is still out on the life expectancy of DVDs. A lot depends on storage. They need to be dry and not too hot. The question of life is largely centered about DVDs that are burned like you do on your computer. It is generally agreed they will not last as long as commercially pressed. We may not know for sure for many years but the consensus is that a burned DVD properly stored will last 20 years or more. Norm

A. Hi Charles, The jury is still out on the life expectancy of DVDs. A lot depends on storage. They need to be dry and not too hot. The question of life is largely centered about DVDs that are burned like you do on your computer. It is generally agreed they will not last as long as commercially pressed. We may not know for sure for many years but the consensus is that a burned DVD properly stored will last 20 years or more. Norm

Q. America is 49th in the world, which makes no sense since we have the best physicians. Why is our life expectancy so low if the free market principles of our healthcare system is so great?

How do they calculate life expectancy?
Q. When the newspapers publish numbers that the life expectancy for females in the US is 79 and for males it is 76, how do they calculate that? If it is an average length of time that people live, does this take into account infant mortality?
Asked by Edwin H - Tue Mar 14 20:11:37 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Right off the top of my head (meaning I'm probably wrong), I think it might be calculated as the average age of those who die from non-accidental means. Thus, infant mortality is probably a factor.
