Table contains supplementary information to the Health Reports article (Tjepkema M, Wilkins R. Long A. Cause-specific mortality by income adequacy in Canada: A 16-year follow-up study, Health Reports, 2013; 24(6)).

3.

Mortality data included underlying cause of death, coded according to the World Health Organization, International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision for deaths occurring in 1991 through 1999, and according to the Tenth Revision for deaths occurring in 2000 through 2006.

4.

International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision and Tenth Revision codes are available in the following Health Reports article: Tjepkema M, Wilkins R. Long A. Cause-specifc mortality by income adequacy in Canada: A 16-year follow-up study Health Reports 2013; 24(6)

5.

Deaths were grouped by Global Burden of Disease categories.

6.

Deaths were grouped by behavioural health risk factors, namely, smoking-related, alcohol-related and drug-related diseases.

7.

Deaths before age 75 that were potentially amenable to medical intervention (for example, due to cerebrovascular disease, hypertension, breast cancer, or pneumonia or influenza).

8.

Income adequacy quintiles were calculated by first summing total pre-tax, post-transfer income from all sources for all family members, and then taking the ratio of total income to the Statistics Canada low-income cut-off for the applicable family size and community size group. Quintiles were derived based on this ratio.

9.

At baseline (1991), cohort membership excluded residents of institutions.

10.

Mortality rates were age-standardized mortality using the cohort population structure (person-years at risk), as the standard population.

11.

Rate ratios were calculated by dividing the age standardized mortality rate for those in a lower income adequacy quintile (Quintiles 1 to Quintile 4) by the age standardized mortality rate for those in the highest quintile (Quintile 5). Rate ratios greater than 1.00 indicate increased mortality risk.

12.

Rate differences were calculated by substracting the age standardized mortality rate for those in a highest income adequacy quintile (Quintiles 5) from the age standardized mortality rate of those in a lower income adequacy quintile (Quintile 1 to Quintile 4). Rate differences greater than 0 indicate excess mortality risk.

13.

The confidence intervals were produced via the Spiegelman method (Spiegelman M, Introduction to Demography Revised Edition. Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1968).
