Age-specific mortality rates (per 100,000) by period and birth cohort and age, period, and cohort effects for the mortality rates of the major CVD in Yangpu, Shanghai, China, 1974–2015. Note: Each row of plots, from left to right, are age-specific mortality rates by period, age-specific mortality by birth cohort, and an age-period-cohort Poisson (APC) regression plot. The APC regression plot has 3 curves depicting, from left to right, trends in mortality rate by age (yr) for the reference birth cohort (1949), the risk ratio of the cohort effect compared with the reference birth cohort (1949), and the risk ratio of the calendar period effect compared with the reference cohort (1980). Dotted lines show the 95% confidence intervals of the 3 components (solid lines)
