Question Answered step-by-step Look at a recent issue of the National Vital Statistics Report Health, United States.with final mortality statistics from the National Center for Health Statistics or the most recent issue of (BOTH OF THESE RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE). Find a table that shows the number of deaths and the rate for leading causes of death by age group. Use this table to solve the following:1. Calculate the proportionate mortality ratio (PMR) for malignant neoplasms in the 5-to 14 year old age group (number of deaths from that cause divided by the total number of deaths in that age group). Do the same for 45 – to -64 year olds. How do the two PMRs compare?2. Now compare the rated given for deaths from malignant neoplasms in the two age groups. How does this comparison differ from the comparison in the previous questions? After studying the difference in cause-specific rates and PMRs, do you think that the PMR is an indication of risk of death? Why or Why not? Does the comparison of PMRs across populations indicate the relative risk of death for a given cause in one group compared with another?https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr69/nvsr69-13-508.pdfhttps://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr70/nvsr70-08-508.pdfPs: Please cite these sources in APA format 7th edition.
