From: Malnutrition-related mortality trends in older adults in the United States from 1999 to 2020
Trends in age-adjusted mortality rate (per 100,000) for malnutrition among U.S. older adults from 1999 to 2020 stratified by gender. The Joinpoint regression model identified three time segments for both genders. For females, 1999 to 2006 APC: –9.1 (95% CI: –10.5, –7.7), 2006 to 2013 APC: 1.0 (95% CI: –1.8, 3.8), 2013 to 2020 APC: 22.8 (95% CI: 21.4, 24.2). For males, 1999 to 2006 APC: –8.4 (95% CI: –9.8, –7.1), 2006 to 2013 APC: 0.8 (95% CI: –1.3, 3.0), 2013 to 2020 APC: 21.1 (95% CI: 19.9, 22.2)
