Histograms of individuals who reached age 105 reported in the International Database on Longevity, disaggregated by sex and observational scheme.
(A) Histogram depicting the distribution of ages at last observation for all countries combined. (B) Close up to the distribution of ages at last observation by country and region. Red bars represent females and blue bars represent males. When the exact age at death is known, we regard an individual as fully observed and it is represented by solidly colored bars. Conversely, partially observed individuals are those whose exact date of death is unknown (e.g., right-censored or interval-censored) and they are depicted with lighter-colored bars. Birth cohorts of individuals included in the analysis are indicated below each country name.

Risk of dying between ages 105 and 113 with 95% empirical confidence intervals for females.
The estimation of the risks of dying and empirical confidence intervals was performed using a fully non-parametric approach and by considering the observations schemes in each country. The risk of dying is expressed in age intervals of six months. Population size is indicated at the top-left corner of each panel. The darker the shade of the dot plot, the greater the number of survivors at every specific age (i.e. subjects exposed to the risk of dying). For example, at age 105, there were 8,990 French females exposed to the risk of dying. At age 113, only 18 survived.
