Description

Aman Goyal and co-authors track deaths from thoracic aortic aneurysm in United States adults from 1999 to 2020, and how they split by group. This bulge in the chest part of the main artery can burst with little warning, and many cases go unfound. Death records from a national database were read for adults over twenty-five.

About forty-seven thousand such deaths were logged, and the adjusted death rate fell by about half over the span, mostly before 2013. Rates ran highest in older adults, in men, and in Black adults, and were higher outside big cities than inside them. The authors call for focused, fair efforts in the groups left behind.
