TL;DR: Efforts to enhance the research platform include using automated measurement techniques to estimate cause of death by verbal autopsy, full ‘reconciliation’ of in- and out-migrations, follow-up of migrants departing the study area, and optimizing public access to HDSS data are priorities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of mortality transition for primary health care in rural South Africa: a population-based surveillance study
Stephen Tollman,Stephen Tollman,Kathleen Kahn,Kathleen Kahn,Benn Sartorius,Mark A. Collinson,Samuel J. Clark,Samuel J. Clark,Michel Garenne,Michel Garenne +9 more
TL;DR: The dynamics of the mortality transition by comparing the period 2002–05 with 1992–94 are investigated and integrated chronic care based on scaled-up delivery of antiretroviral therapy needed to address this expanding burden is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Returning home to die: circular labour migration and mortality in South Africa.
TL;DR: Evidence strongly suggests that increasing numbers of circular labour migrants of prime working age are becoming ill in the urban areas where they work and coming home to be cared for and eventually to die in the rural areas where their families live.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probabilistic projections of the total fertility rate for all countries.
Leontine Alkema,Adrian E. Raftery,Patrick Gerland,Samuel J. Clark,Samuel J. Clark,François Pelletier,Thomas Buettner,Gerhard K. Heilig +7 more
TL;DR: A Bayesian projection model is described to produce country-specific projections of the total fertility rate (TFR) for all countries using an autoregressive model, in which long-term TFR projections converge toward and oscillate around replacement level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research into health, population and social transitions in rural South Africa: data and methods of the Agincourt Health and Demographic Surveillance System.
Kathleen Kahn,Stephen Tollman,Mark A. Collinson,Samuel J. Clark,Rhian Twine,Benjamin Clark,Mildred G Shabangu,Francesc Xavier Gómez-Olivé,Obed Mokoena,Michel Garenne +9 more
TL;DR: A major health and demographic transition was documented over a 12-year period with marked changes in population structure, escalating mortality, declining fertility, and high levels of temporary migration increasing particularly amongst women.
