The Detailed Mortality - Underlying Cause of Death data on CDC WONDER are county-level national mortality and population data spanning the years 1999-2009. Data are based on death certificates for U.S. residents. Each death certificate contains a single underlying cause of death, and demographic data. The number of deaths, crude death rates, age-adjusted death rates, standard errors and 95% confidence intervals for death rates can be obtained by place of residence (total U.S., region, state, and county), age group (including infants and single-year-of-age cohorts), race (4 groups), Hispanic ethnicity, sex, year of death, and cause-of-death (4-digit ICD-10 code or group of codes, injury intent and mechanism categories, or drug and alcohol related causes), year, month and week day of death, place of death and whether an autopsy was performed.

The Population - Bridged-Race July 1st Estimates online databases report bridged-race population estimates of the July 1st resident population of the United States, based on Census 2000 counts, for use in calculating vital rates. These estimates result from "bridging" the 31 race categories used in Census 2000, as specified in the 1997 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) standards for the collection of data on race and ethnicity, to the four race categories specified under the 1977 standards (Asian or Pacific Islander, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, White). Many data systems, such as vital statistics, are continuing to use the 1977 OMB standards during the transition to full implementation of the 1997 OMB standards. Postcensal estimates are available for year 2000 - 2009; intercensal estimates are available for the years 1990-1999. Obtain population counts by Year, State, County, Race (4-categories), Ethnicity, Sex and Age (1-year or 5-year groups). The data are released by the National Center for Health Statistics.

The Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Morbidity online databases on CDC WONDER contain case reports reported from the 50 United States and D.C., Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands and Guam.

Data are produced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for HIV/AIDS, viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP).

Databases utilize rich ad-hoc query system for the analysis of public health data. Reports and other query systems are also available.

PurposeCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States, and sepsis significantly contributes to hospitalization and mortality. This study aims to assess the trends of sepsis-associated CVD mortality rates and variations in mortality based on demographics and regions in the US.MethodsThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (CDC WONDER) database was used to identify CVD and sepsis-related deaths from 1999 to 2022. Data on gender, race and ethnicity, age groups, region, and state classification were statistically analyzed to obtain crude and age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR). The Joinpoint Regression Program was used to determine trends in mortality within the study period.ResultsDuring the study period, there were a total of 1,842,641 deaths with both CVD and sepsis listed as a cause of death. Sepsis-associated CVD mortality decreased between 1999 and 2013, from AAMR of 65.7 in 1999 to 58.8 in 2013 (APC −1.06*%, 95% CI: −2.12% to −0.26%), then rose to 74.3 in 2022 (APC 3.23*%, 95% CI: 2.18%–5.40%). Throughout the study period, mortality rates were highest in men, NH Black adults, and elderly adults (65+ years old). The Northeast region, which had the highest mortality rate in the initial part of the study period, was the only region to see a decline in mortality, while the Northwest, Midwest, and Southern regions experienced significant increases in mortality rates.ConclusionSepsis-associated CVD mortality has increased in the US over the past decade, and both this general trend and the demographic disparities have worsened since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Notes

This dataset shows the total number of deaths in the United States per age for the years 1999 to 2020. The raw data used to create the dataset are from the "Multiple Cause of Death 1999-2020" files accessed via the WONDER Online Database at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The columns in the dataset are: - Year: The year of death. Range is 1999 to 2020. - Age: The age at death. Range is 0 to 100. 0 represents < 1 year old. 100 represents 100+. - Deaths: The number of deaths In the United State in Year at Age

Introductionour objective was to analyze the trends in the leading causes of death among the pediatric population aged 1–19 years in Mexico and the United States (US) from 2000 to 2022. Methods. Data for Mexico were sourced from the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), while the US data were extracted from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (CDC-WONDER) databases.ResultsHomicide has been the leading cause of death since 2017 in Mexico and since 2019 in US youths aged 1–19. In Mexico, it reached 6.5 deaths per 100,000 people in 2022. Despite the overall pediatric mortality decline from 2000 to 2022 in both countries, the pediatric homicide rate has increased by 93.3 and 35.8% In Mexico and the US, respectively, and suicide by 86.6 and 36.9%. In both countries, death by firearm-related injuries had risen in a parallel sense. In the US, deaths by drug overdose and poisoning have increased by 314.8%.ConclusionDespite advancements in infant healthcare over the past two decades in Mexico, there remains a significant gap in the provision of healthcare services to the adolescent population. Addressing issues related to violence, mental health, and substance abuse through targeted public policies is imperative for both Mexico and the US, especially given their shared border region.

The Births (Natality) online databases in CDC WONDER report birth rates, fertility rates and counts of live births occurring within the United States to U.S. residents and non-residents. Counts can be obtained by state, county, child's gender and weight, mother's race, mother's age, mother's education, gestation period, prenatal care, birth plurality, and mother's medical and tobacco use risk factors. The data are derived from birth certificates. Data are available since 1995. The data are produced by the National Center for Health Statistics.
