Temporal Trends and Patterns in Mortality After Incident Heart Failure

Figures

• 

  Figure 1.. Temporal Trends in All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality Rates at 1 Year Following Incident Heart Failure A, Crude rates of all-cause and cause-specific mortality at 1 year following incident heart failure diagnosis. Labels for years 2002 and 2013 present individual causes of death as a share of the total number of deaths at 1 year. B, Rate ratios (RRs) from multivariable Poisson regression models comparing 1-year mortality rates in 2013 with 2002 by first reported cause, adjusting for patients’ age, sex, socioeconomic status, region, and 17 baseline comorbidities.

• 

  Figure 2.. Temporal Trends in All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality Rates at 1 Year Following Incident Heart Failure by Age Group Crude mortality rates by age-groups alongside rate ratios (RRs), 95% confidence intervals, and interaction P values from multivariable Poisson regression models accounting for year of diagnosis, age (as a continuous variable), sex, socioeconomic status, region, and 17 baseline comorbidities. Interaction P values refer to the interaction between age group (categorized as age <80 years or age ≥80 years) and year of diagnosis.

  Figure 3.. Differences in Mortality Rates 1 Year After Incident Heart Failure (HF) by Sex, Socioeconomic Status, and Diagnosis Care Setting Crude mortality rates by subgroups alongside rate ratios (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals from multivariable Poisson regression models accounting for year of diagnosis, age (as a continuous variable), sex, socioeconomic status, region, and 17 baseline comorbidities. Socioeconomic status refers to Index of Multiple Deprivation 2015 quintile, with 1 referring to the most affluent and 5 to the most deprived socioeconomic quintile.

  Figure 4.. Temporal Trends in All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mean Number of Hospitalizations at 1 Year Following Incident Heart Failure A, Crude mean number of hospitalizations within 1 year of incident heart failure per patient-years at risk by primary discharge diagnosis. Labels displayed for 2002 and 2013 present individual discharge diagnoses as a share of the total number of hospitalizations in the given year. B, Rate ratios (RRs) from multivariable Poisson regression models comparing mean number of hospitalizations at 1 year in 2013 with 2002 offset for patient-years at risk by primary discharge diagnosis, adjusting for age, sex, socioeconomic status, region, and 17 baseline comorbidities.
