For example, the kids will eat before them or they&#x2019;ll take others to the doctor before going themselves,&#x201d; said Rosella, noting that the social inequities facing women are worsening over time.<\/p>\n<p>The study, &#x201c;The narrowing mortality gap between men and women over two decades: a registry based study in Ontario, Canada,&#x201d; published today in <i>BMJ Open<\/i>, analyzed data from 1.7 million deaths in the Ontario Registrar General&apos;s death file from 1992 to 2012. The research team calculated absolute mortality &#x2014; the rate which men and women are currently at compared to the mortality rate where they started &#x2014; and relative mortality &#x2014; the percent change based on where people start from. Then they measured sex differences for all-cause and cause-specific mortality, looking specifically at the following causes of death: circulatory, cancers, respiratory and injuries.<\/p>\n<p>They found that men and women are living longer overall, but from the year 2000 onwards, men experienced more gains in all categories. Mortality rates of high income males were lower than those seen among low-income females, relative mortality declines were greater among males than females for cancer, respiratory, and injury-related deaths, and the largest absolute mortality gains were seen among men over the age of 85 years.<\/p>\n<p>This phenomenon is observed globally as well. There is an even bigger disparity in the United States and it&#x2019;s less pronounced in Europe, where social systems are more robust. Canada, even with its universal healthcare, falls in the middle.<\/p>\n<p>The overall mortality gains underscore the positive impact of improved medical interventions, but the findings suggest that men are benefitting more than women. One potential reason, explains Rosella, is that physicians may not perceive women&#x2019;s risk to be as high as men&#x2019;s for heart disease or other chronic diseases that are the top killers in Canada. <\/p>\n<p>&#x201c;We should be paying attention to these demographic shifts as it affects all aspects of our health system, from clinical care delivery to preventive and wellness services,&#x201d; said Rosella.<\/p>\n<p>&#x201c;There are going to be a lot more older men &#x2014; 80 years and up &#x2014; than society has seen before and these men tend to rely more on their spouse for support so we&#x2019;ll need to adjust social supports for older men to provide alternative caregiver support.&#x201d;<\/p>\n<h2>FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT:<\/h2>\n<p>Deborah Creatura<br \/>\nMedia Advisor, ICES<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:deborah.creatura@ices.on.ca\">deborah.creatura@ices.on.ca<\/a><br \/>\n(o) 416-480-4780 or (c) 647-406-5996<\/p>\n<p>Nicole Bodnar<br \/>\nDirector of Communications<br \/>\nDalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto<br \/>\n416-946-7521<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:Nicole.bodnar@utoronto.ca\">Nicole.bodnar@utoronto.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>About the Dalla Lana School of Public Health: <\/b>The Dalla Lana School of Public Health is a Faculty of the University of Toronto that originated as one of the Schools of Hygiene begun by the Rockefeller Foundation in 1927.
