Racial, sex, and geographic disparities in mortality involving stroke and chronic kidney disease: a CDC WONDER database analysis, 1999-2020.

Paper C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This review looked at death records from 1999 to 2020. It found that people with both stroke and kidney disease die at different rates based on race and sex. This shows a link between these factors and death. It does not prove that one causes the other.
