Death; the mortality rate expresses the number of deaths in a population within a given time and may be expressed as a crude death rate (e.g., total deaths in an entire population in a given year) or as rates for specific diseases or for groups based on age, sex, or other attributes (e.g., number of deaths from cancer in white males in a given year).
Mortality usually means the relative incidence of death in a population — for example, the number of people who die of AIDS per 1,000 people in the population. See also morbidity.

Death rate. The mortality of WLS is 0.17% or less than 1/5 of 1%. Comparable to a c-section.
Mortality refers to the number of people who have died from cancer and is usually expressed as the number of deaths each year in a specified area (e.g. in Scotland). The mortality rate is the number of people who die from cancer per 100,000 population. Mortality is generally the most reliable source of statistical information on cancer as it is collected from the death certificate which is a legally required document. The drawback is that mortality rates are the result of both incidence and survival rates and mortality rates alone may mask important trends in incidence and survival.
The occurrence of deaths in a population. One of the three basic demographic processes (along with fertility and migration).
the death rate; usually expressed as the number of deaths per 100,000.
rate of death expressed as the number of deaths occurring in a population of given size within a specified time interval (e.g., 265 annual deaths from heart disease per 100,000 U.S. Hispanic women, 1991–1995).
The number of deaths in a population, including overall deaths and comparisons of several types of death.
refers to the rate of species that dies during migration either to or from a fresh water system during the spawning cycle. It is the death rate.
The death rate, or ratio of deaths that take place to expected deaths.
The relative frequency of death, or the death rate, in a community or population.
the rate of occurrence of death within a population within a specified time period; calculation of mortality takes account of age-specific death rates, and can thus yield measures of life expectancy and the extent of premature death
All deaths reported in a given population.
death rate; often given as ratio of deaths per 100,000.
The number of deaths attributed to a particular type of cancer that occurred during the year. Included are deaths of patients diagnosed in earlier years, persons with a new diagnosis during the year, and patients for whom a diagnosis of cancer is made only after death.

The number of deaths attributed to the particular type of cancer that occurred during the year. Includes deaths of patients diagnosed in earlier years and individuals newly diagnosed during the year, as well as patients for whom a diagnosis of cancer is made only after death.
A fatal outcome or, in one word, death. The word "mortality" is derived from "mortal" which came from the Latin "mors" (death). The opposite of mortality is, of course, immortality. Mortality is also quite distinct from morbidity (illness). See the entire definition of Mortality

Death. The mortality rate (death rate) expresses the number of deaths in a unit of population within a prescribed time and may be expressed as crude death rates (e.g., total deaths in relation to total population during a year) or as death rates specific for diseases and, sometimes, for age, sex, or other attributes.
Rate of death in the population as a whole or in specific age groups; it is specified by mortality tables.
