Figure 2. Temporal trends in age-adjusted all-cause mortality (top) and CHD-specific mortality (bottom), by race/ethnicity, 1999–2017.

Figure 2.

Footnotes: APC, annual percent change; CHD, congenital heart defect

Only APCs that reflect a statistically significant temporal trend in mortality are presented as text. Differences by race/ethnicity: Tests of parallelism revealed that NH blacks (p<0.001), Hispanics (p<0.001), and NH other (p=0.005) had non-parallel regression mean functions for all-cause mortality compared to NH whites. NH blacks (p=0.029) and Hispanics (p=0.024) had non-parallel regression mean functions for CHD-specific mortality compared to NH whites. NH other did not have regression lines that departed from parallelism compared to NH whites (p=0.089). Differences by cause: Tests of parallelism revealed no differences between all-cause and CHD-specific mortality for either NH whites (p=0.206), NH blacks (p=0.432), Hispanics (p=0.511), or NH other (p=0.162).
