Mortality and potential years of life lost of major kidney diseases among residents in Wuhan in 2014 -2019 / 公共卫生与预防医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of major kidney disease deaths and the potential years of life lost among residents in Wuhan from 2014 to 2019, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of kidney diseases. Methods The major kidney diseases deaths among residents in Wuhan during 2014-2019 were collected from the population-based Mortality Surveillance System. The standardized mortality rate and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) of major kidney diseases among residents in different ages and genders were calculated, and the epidemiological characteristics and trends were analyzed. Results There were 4 100 deaths (2 380 in male and 1 720 in female) from major kidney diseases among residents in Wuhan between 2014 to 2019, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 6.22/100 000. The mortality rate of major kidney diseases showed an upward trend with the increasing age groups. The age-standardized mortality rate and the age-standardized potential years of life lost rate (SPYLLR) in glomerular disease and tubulo-interstitial diseases were significantly decreased (P＜0.05). The age-standardized mortality rate of the kidney failure was significantly increased (P＜0.05), especially in the male (APC=25.10% , P＜0.05). Conclusion From 2014 to 2019, there was no significant change in the overall mortality rate of major kidney diseases among residents in Wuhan. The death burden and disease burden of glomerular diseases and tubulo-interstitial diseases were significantly decreased, while the mortality rate of male kidney failure was significantly increased, indicating the need for targeted prevention and treatment of kidney diseases.
