Description

Ahmed Javed leads a 2026 analysis of United States death records asking how mortality tied to chronic lung disease among people with chronic kidney disease changed between 1999 and 2023. The two conditions worsen each other when they coexist.

Using the CDC WONDER database, the team counted 242,665 such deaths in adults aged twenty-five and over. Age-adjusted mortality roughly doubled across the period, climbing at an average of about three percent a year. Men had higher rates throughout, while women's rates rose faster. Non-Hispanic white Americans, the oldest patients, Midwestern states, and non-metropolitan areas carried the heaviest burden. The authors press for fairer coverage and stronger prevention.
