    Abstract:
    AIMS: We aim to analyze trends in mortality rates among adults with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in the US from 1999 to 2020. METHODS: We queried the Centers for Disease Control Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research database for mortality statistics from 1999 to 2020 associated with DKD in adults aged ≥25 years. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated and trends were analyzed using the Joinpoint Regression Program. RESULTS: From 1999 to 2020, a total of 528,430 deaths were reported among adults with DKD. The mortality rates increased over time with males consistently exhibiting higher AAMR than females. NH American Indian or Alaska Native individuals had the highest AAMR, followed by NH Blacks, Hispanics, NH Whites, and NH Asians. The West region had the highest AAMR, followed by the Midwest, South, and Northeast. Rural regions had higher AAMR than urban areas, and mortality rates increased with age. CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals notable disparities in DKD mortality rates across demographic groups and geographic regions. NH American Indians or Alaska Natives, males, elderly individuals, rural residents, and those in the West region were disproportionately affected. Understanding these trends is crucial for developing targeted interventions to reduce DKD-related mortality and address healthcare disparities.
