Trends of cardiovascular disease and sepsis related mortality in the United States, 1999 to 2019: A CDC WONDER Database Analysis.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Cardiovascular risk and prevention, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Sepsis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are common conditions, and both contribute to mortality. The objective of our study is to explore the contemporary mortality trends associated with CVD and sepsis among patients ≥25 years in the United States (US). Methods: We conducted an analysis of death data using CDC WONDER, extracting age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR) per 100,000 for mortality with an underlying or contributing diagnosis of both CVD and sepsis. Trends by age, gender, ethnicity and race, census region, and metropolitan status were analyzed. Joinpoint regression calculated the annual percent change (APC) for AAMR with 95 % CI. Results: From 1999 to 2019, there were a total of 1,601,794 deaths related to CVD and sepsis. The AAMR related to both CVD and sepsis showed an overall decrease from 1999 to 2019 (1999: 37.9; 95 % CI: 37.6 to 38.1 vs. 2019: 35.4; 95 % CI: 35.2 to 35.7). Men had consistently higher AAMRs compared to women (Men: 41.5; 95 % CI: 41.4 to 41.6 vs. Women: 31.3; 95 % CI: 31.2 to 31.4). Non-Hispanic Black or African American individuals and adults aged ≥65 had the highest CVD and sepsis-related AAMRs. Similarly, the AAMRs were highest in the Northeastern region and among residents of metropolitan areas. Conclusion: Though there has been a reduction in CVD and sepsis-related deaths among patients, significant disparities remain across various demographic groups, underscoring the need for continued research.
