Trends in mortality from Alzheimer's disease and related dementias with hyperlipidemia in the United States from 1999 to 2020-a CDC WONDER database study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The co-occurrence of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) with hyperlipidemia represents a growing public health burden amid population aging. Although both conditions have been independently linked to increased morbidity and mortality, national trends in ADRD-related mortality involving hyperlipidemia remain poorly characterized.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective, population-based study using mortality data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (CDC WONDER) from 1999 to 2020. Deaths with co-listed International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes for ADRD and hyperlipidemia were identified. Age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) were calculated per 100,000 persons
