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 race. The Joinpoint regression model identified three time segments for Non-Hispanic Blacks, Non-Hispanic Whites, and Hispanics, and two time segments for Non-Hispanic Asian/Pacific Islanders. For Non-Hispanic Blacks, 1999 to 2009 APC: –6.7 (95% CI: –8.0, –5.4), 2009 to 2013 APC: 1.5 (95% CI: –7.7, 11.6), 2013 to 2020 APC: 19.3 (95% CI: 17.4, 21.2). For Non-Hispanic Whites, 1999 to 2007 APC: –8.0 (95% CI: –9.6, 6.3), 2007 to 2013 APC: 1.9 (95% CI: –1.5, 5.4), 2013 to 2020 APC: 23.0 (95% CI: 21.1, 24.9). For Hispanics, 1999 to 2007 APC: –7.6 (95% CI: –10.3, –4.9), 2007 to 2013 APC: 0.1 (95% CI: –5.3, –5.9), 2013 to 2020 APC: 20.4 (95% CI: 18.0, 22.8). For Non-Hispanic Asian/Pacific Islanders, 1999 to 2012 APC: –4.1 (95% CI: –6.2, –1.9), 2012 to 2020 APC: 17.6 (95% CI: 14.7, 20.5)
