Mortality trends in the United States in recent years including provisional 2024 data.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in greater mortality in the United States. We sought to evaluate ongoing rates of all-cause and of top individual causes of mortality using provisional 2024 mortality data. Methods: Data on all-cause and top individual causes of mortality in the United States between 2018 and provisional 2024 estimates, using Age-Adjusted and Crude Mortality rates (with 95 % Confidence Intervals), were obtained from the publicly available Center for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research data set. Results: All-cause age-adjusted mortality rates 100,000 from 2018 and provisional 2024 data were 723.6 (722.8724.5), 715.3 (714.4716.1), 835.4 (834.5836.3), 879.7 (878.7880.6), 798.8 (797.9799.9), 750.5 (749.7751.4), and 742.6 (741.8743.5), with provisional 2024 rates remaining above pre-pandemic baseline. Mortality attributed to COVID-19 infection peaked in 2021 as the 3rd leading cause of death, dropping to the 4th, 11th, and 15th leading cause of death in 2022, 2023, and provisional 2024 data respectively. Conclusions: All-cause mortality rates in provisional 2024 data in the United States remain above pre-pandemic baseline. Mortality from COVID dropped from the 3rd leading cause of death in 2021 to the 15th leading cause of death in provisional 2024 data.
