Trends of the female advantage in adult life expectancy (overall and by HIV status), 2000–2014.
Notes: 1 The difference is the average number of extra years that adult women are expected to live compared to adult men in uMkhanyakude. 2 The confidence interval for the HIV positive population in 2010 has been truncated and should extend from -21.7 to 19.0.
Fig 3.
Age-cause decomposition of the female advantage in adult life expectancy of the known HIV negative and HIV positive populations, 2010–2014.
Note: Positive values in these plots indicate that the cause-specific mortality rates in a particular age group are higher for men than for women and thus increase the female advantage in adult LE; negative values suppress the female LE advantage. Note that the axis for HIV negatives has been reversed.
