Table 1 Coverage of selected gamma CIs for county-level age-adjusted mortality rates, by race and Hispanic origin. Coverage of the Anderson–Rosenberg, Tiwari, Fay–Kim, and Fay–Feuer gamma CIs is based on 10,000 replications for 3147 county-level age-adjusted mortality rates R = ∑(wi/Pi) Di by overall numerator size (D = ∑Di < 10 vs. D = 10–19, D = 20–99, or D ≥ 100), coefficient of variation (CV) of the weights ui = wi/pi (CV > 0.5 vs. CV ≤ 0.5), and race and Hispanic origin for four causes of death, using 1999–2019 aggregate data. Causes of death include: all causes; external causes of morbidity and mortality (ICD-10 codes: V01–Y89); congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal anomalies (Q00–Q99); and Alzheimer disease and other degenerative diseases of the nervous system, not elsewhere classified (G30–G31)
