Abstract
What is already known about this topic?: Health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) is a crucial indicator of global health, which is strongly correlated with the socio-demographic index (SDI) and population dynamics.
What is added by this report?: This study revealed that the correlation between total fertility rate (TFR) and HALE of older adults varies across countries with different SDI levels, offering valuable insights for the development of more targeted health promotion programs and interventions.
What are the implications for public health practice?: Different health interventions should be tailored to countries with different levels of SDI. In countries with both low fertility rates and low SDI, advanced measures are needed to address the challenge of an aging population that may live longer but face poorer health in the future.
