The forecasted mortality rates for genitourinary system diseases in the US indicate a gradual increase, from 24.4 in 2024 to 25.3 deaths per 100,000 men by 2028. As of 2023, the actual rate was slightly lower, suggesting a consistent upward trend. The year-on-year percentage change reflects an annual increase, with a cumulative average growth rate over these years also showing a positive trajectory.
Future trends to watch:
- Advancements in medical technology and treatment options potentially slowing the increasing trend in mortality rates.
- Public health initiatives and preventative measures that could impact future rates positively.
- Impact of demographic shifts such as aging populations on mortality trends.
