Mortality trends in US patients with gynecologic cancer and cardiovascular disease

This study investigates mortality trends among US women aged 25 and older who have both gynecologic cancer and cardiovascular disease, utilizing national death certificate data from 1999 to 2023. The authors found a 49% increase in deaths over the study period, with stable overall age-adjusted mortality rates but significant disparities based on age, race, geography, and urbanization. The results underscore the need for integrated care approaches to address these inequities in health outcomes.
