Table 1_Mortality trends in the United States for adults with concurrent cerebrovascular d

59,075 U.S. deaths between 1999 and 2023 involved both pulmonary embolism and cerebrovascular disease. This dataset, published by Tian Lv on figshare in March 2026, contains age-adjusted mortality rates, annual percent changes, and subgroup analyses by sex, age, race, region, and urbanization level. The analysis reveals an accelerating mortality trend, particularly from 2018 to 2021.

Use Cases

• Analyze long-term mortality trends based on age-adjusted mortality rates from 1999 to 2023.
• Identify demographic disparities based on subgroup analyses by sex, age, race, and region.
• Model geographic heterogeneity in mortality based on state-level and regional data.
• Study the impact of urbanization on health outcomes based on comparisons between metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas.

Strengths

• Contains 59,075 death records over a 24-year period (1999-2023).
• Provides age-adjusted mortality rates standardized to the 2000 U.S. population.
• Includes detailed subgroup analyses by sex, age, race, region, and urbanization level.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count for the underlying data table is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The 229.6 KB file size suggests a limited scope, likely containing summary statistics rather than individual-level records.
