Background: Cancer patients are at an increased risk for the incidence and complications of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) due to shared risk factors and treatment-related adverse effects. Mortality trends for AMI-related deaths in adult cancer patients in the U.S. remain unexplored. Methodology: This study used CDC WONDER data for death certificates from 1999 to 2020, identifying U.S. adults (≥25 years) with cancer (ICD-10: C00-D49) who died of AMI (ICD-10: I21) as the underlying cause. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) and annual percent changes (APCs) were calculated and stratified by gender, age, race, and geographic location. Results: Between 1999 and 2020, there were 109,462 AMI-related deaths in adult cancer patients. The AAMR decreased from 4.3 per 100,000 in 1999 to 1.4 in 2020. A significant decline occurred from 1999 to 2015 (APC: 6.65; 95 % CI: 6.95 to −6.40; p |
