Temporal trends and disparities in mortality from hypertensive heart disease with heart failure: A nationwide analysis (1999-2020).

ABSTRACT:

By 2019, nearly 20 million people worldwide had hypertensive heart disease (HHD), resulting in over 1.1 million deaths and 21.5 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).
