This descriptive epidemiologic study outlines trends and disparities in obesity-related cardiovascular mortality in the US population between 1999 and 2020. The study suggests that obesity-related cardiovascular mortality is increasing with differential trends by race, sex, and place of residence.
Background: Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, with differential impact across populations. This descriptive epidemiologic study outlines trends and disparities in obesity-related cardiovascular mortality in the US population between 1999 and 2020. Methods and Results: The Multiple Cause of Death database was used to identify adults with primary cardiovascular death and obesity recorded as a contributing cause of death. Cardiovascular deaths were grouped into ischemic heart disease, heart failure, hypertensive disease, cerebrovascular disease, and other. Absolute, crude, and age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated by racial group, considering temporal trends and variation by sex, age, and residence (urban versus rural). Analysis of 281135 obesity-related cardiovascular deaths demonstrated a 3-fold increase in AAMRs from 1999 to 2020 (2.2-6.6 per 100000 population). Black individuals had the highest AAMRs. American Indian or Alaska Native individuals had the greatest temporal increase in AAMRs (+415%). Ischemic heart disease was the most common primary cause of death. The second most common cause of death was hypertensive disease, which was most common in the Black racial group (31%). Among Black individuals, women had higher AAMRs than men; across all other racial groups, men had a greater proportion of obesity-related cardiovascular mortality cases and higher AAMRs. Black individuals had greater AAMRs in urban compared with rural settings; the reverse was observed for all other races. Conclusions: Obesity-related cardiovascular mortality is increasing with differential trends by race, sex, and place of residence.
