Abstract We aim to provide insight into the cause-specific mortality of older adults with intellectual disability (ID), with and without Down syndrome (DS), and compare this to the general population. Immediate and primary cause of death were collected through medical files of 1,050 older adults with ID, 5 years after the start of the Healthy Ageing and Intellectual Disabilities (HA-ID) study. During the follow-up period, 207 (19.7%) participants died, of whom 54 (26.1%) had DS. Respiratory failure was the most common immediate cause of death (43.4%), followed by dehydration/malnutrition (20.8%), and cardiovascular diseases (9.4%). In adults with DS, the most common cause was respiratory disease (73.3%), infectious and bacterial diseases (4.4%), and diseases of the digestive system (4.4%). Diseases of the respiratory system also formed the largest group of primary causes of death (32.1%; 80.4% was due to pneumonia), followed by neoplasms (17.6%), and diseases of the circulatory system (8.2%). In adults with DS, the main primary cause was also respiratory diseases (51.1%), followed by dementia (22.2%).

PurposeHodgkin lymphoma (HL) survival in Sweden has improved dramatically over the last 40 years, but little is known about the extent to which efforts aimed at reducing long-term treatment-related mortality have contributed to the improved prognosis.MethodsWe used population-based data from Sweden to estimate the contribution of treatment-related mortality caused by diseases of the circulatory system (DCS) to temporal trends in excess HL mortality among 5,462 patients diagnosed at ages 19 to 80 between 1973 and 2006. Flexible parametric survival models were used to estimate excess mortality. In addition, we used recent advances in statistical methodology to estimate excess mortality in the presence of competing causes of death.ResultsExcess DCS mortality within 20 years after diagnosis has decreased continually since the mid-1980s and is expected to further decrease among patients diagnosed in the modern era. Age at diagnosis and sex were important predictors for excess DCS mortality, with advanced age and male sex being associated with higher excess DCS mortality. However, when accounting for competing causes of death, we found that excess DCS mortality constitutes a relatively small proportion of the overall mortality among patients with HL in Sweden.ConclusionExcess DCS mortality is no longer a common source of mortality among Swedish patients with HL. The main causes of death among long-term survivors today are causes other than HL, although other (non-DCS) excess mortality also persists for as long as 20 years after diagnosis, particularly among older patients.
