Background: Bone density and structure-related disorders, such as osteoporosis and related fractures, significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality, particularly among aging populations. Monitoring temporal trends and geographic variations in mortality is essential to inform targeted public health interventions. In this study, we aimed to examine temporal and geographic variations in mortality associated with bone density and structure-related disorders in the United States from 1999 to 2022. Methods: Using ICD-10 codes M80-M85, this retrospective ecological study utilized mortality data extracted from the CDC WONDER database for the years 1999-2022. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated and stratified by demographic variables (age, sex, and race/ethnicity) and geographic regions. Temporal trends were analyzed using Joinpoint regression to estimate annual percent changes (APCs). Geographic variations were visualized using choropleth maps, and subgroup analyses were performed to explore disparities. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) for bone density and structure-related disorders decreased overall from 1999 to 2019, with a subsequent rise observed in 2020 and 2022. Joinpoint regression revealed a significant negative trend from 2007-2016 (APC = -7.46%, p < 0.000001), followed by a positive reversal from 2019-2022 (APC = 3.78%, p = 0.013). Both males and females experienced declines in mortality, but females had a slightly higher APC of -3.10% compared to -2.82% for males. Asian/Pacific Islander groups exhibited the most pronounced decrease in mortality (APC = -11.92%, p < 0.000001) from 2009-2015, with a positive rebound in recent years. Black or African American populations had the smallest decline (APC = -1.35%). The Southern U.S. experienced the steepest decline in mortality from 2010-2016 (APC = -10.92%, p < 0.000001), followed by a strong positive trend from 2019-2022 (APC = 6.61%, p < 0.000001). Conversely, the West and Northeast regions showed milder trends with less pronounced reversals. Older age groups (65-74, 75-84) showed significant decreases in mortality, particularly the 65-74 group, which reversed to a positive trend (APC = 6.97%) from 2019-2022. The highest number of deaths occurred at the decedent’s home (3,330 in 2022). Subgroup analyses indicated significant temporal shifts in the mortality patterns across different racial/ethnic groups and geographic regions. Hispanic/Latino and Asian/Pacific Islander populations exhibited an increase in mortality rates post-2019, particularly in 2020. Conclusion: From 1999 to 2022, mortality from bone density and structure-related disorders in the U.S. exhibited significant temporal and geographic variations. These findings highlight the need for targeted public health strategies. Presentation: Monday, July 14, 2025
