Can survival bias explain the age attenuation of racial inequalities in stroke incidence? A simulation study

BACKGROUND: In middle age, stroke incidence is higher among black than white Americans. For unknown reasons, this inequality decreases and reverses with age. We conducted simulations to evaluate whether selective survival could account for observed age patterning of black–white stroke inequalities....
