Trends and Projections for Aortic Stenosis and Hypertension-Related Mortality Among Older Adults in the United States: A Retrospective Population-Based Analysis.
Article in High blood pressure & cardiovascular prevention : the official journal of the Italian Society of Hypertension, 2026. 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
introductionAortic stenosis (AS) and hypertension (HTN) frequently co-exist in older adults, worsening disease progression and increasing mortality risk compared to either condition alone.
aimTo examine mortality trends and demographic-geographic disparities from comorbid AS and HTN in the U.S. from 1999-2020.
methodsData were extracted from the CDC WONDER Multiple Cause of Death database. Crude and age-adjusted mortality rates (CMRs, AAMRs) per 100,000 were calculated. Joinpoint regression estimated annual (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). Trends were projected to 2030 using an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model.
resultsBetween 1999 and 2020, 100,507 deaths were attributed to comorbid AS and HTN. The overall AAMR significantly increased (AAPC: 5.01%), with a steep rise from 1999-2001 (APC: 21.95%) and consistent increase from 2001-2020 (APC: 3.46%). AAMRs were higher in men (11.6) than women (10.1). NH Whites had the highest AAMR (11.4), followed by Hispanic/Latino and NH Black (7.4), and NH Asian/Pacific Islanders (6.2). AAMRs also varied by region (West: 13.5; Midwest: 11.5; Northeast: 10.7; South: 8.6). Most deaths occurred in medical facilities (34.4%) or at home (31.5%). Vermont, Minnesota, New Hampshire, California, and Nebraska had the highest AAMRs. Non-metropolitan areas had higher AAMRs than metropolitan (11.4 vs. 10.6). Adults ≥ 85 years had the highest CMR (53.6). ARIMA projected AAMR to reach 25.4 by 2030 (22.0 in females, 28.3 in males).
conclusionMortality from concurrent AS and HTN is rising, with notable demographic and geographic disparities. Early detection, integrated care, and targeted public health strategies are critical.
