Between 1971 and 1975, as part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 7,381 persons ages 40–77 years were enrolled in a follow-up study. At the time of enrollment, each study participant was classified as having or not having diabetes. During 1982–1984, enrollees were documented either to have died or were still alive. The results are summarized as follows.
1. Of the men enrolled in the NHANES follow-up study, calculate the ratio of non-diabetic to diabetic men.
2. Calculate the proportion of men in the NHANES follow-up study who were diabetics.
3. Calculate the proportion of deaths among men.
