Concurrent aortic stenosis and hypertension: mortality trends in US older adults from 1999-2020.
Article in Future cardiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAortic Stenosis (AS) is a valvular heart disease. Hypertension accelerates stenosis, increasing morbidity and mortality. This study investigates mortality trends in US older adults with AS and hypertension from 1999 to 2020.
methodsUsing the CDC WONDER database, age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) per 100,000 individuals aged 65+ with AS and hypertension were analyzed. Changes in AAMRs were examined through annual percent change (APC) and average APC (AAPC) using Joinpoint regression.
resultsFrom 1999 to 2020, hypertension caused 99,250 deaths in AS patients in the US, demonstrating an increasing trend (AAPC: 5.51%). Males had higher AAMRs (11.51) than females (9.99). Non-Hispanic (NH) white people (11.32) had the highest AAMRs, followed by Hispanic (7.37), NH Black people (7.27), and NH Asians (6.12). Regionally, the West showed the highest AAMR (13.3), followed by the Midwest (11.38), the Northeast (10.62), and the South (8.53). The states with the highest AAMRs were Vermont and Oregon, while Alabama and Georgia had the lowest. Non-metropolitan areas (11.19) experienced higher mortality than metropolitan areas (10.49).
conclusionWe report increasing mortality rates in patients with AS and hypertension, especially in males, NH white people, and the West. Target healthcare measures are needed to address the rising mortality.
