ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the mortality and years of life lost due to drowning in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, so as to provide insights into drowning prevention and control.@*Methods@#The mortality surveillance data on drowning in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021 were collected from the Zhejiang Chronic Disease Surveillance Information Management System. The crude mortality and standardized mortality of drowning by the 2010 population census data in 2010, years of potential life lost (YPLL) and working years of potential life lost (WYPLL) due to drowning were calculated. In addition, the annual percent change (APC) was used to analyze the trends in drowning mortality and the rate of YPLL and WYPLL in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021.@*Results@# A total of 1 681 deaths occurred due to drowning in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, accounting for 9.11% of total injury deaths. The overall mortality and standardized mortality of drowning were 6.35/105 and 4.70/105, respectively, and mortality and standardized mortality of drowning were 6.95/105 and 5.44/105 in men and 5.76/105 and 3.98/105 in women, respectively. The highest mortality of drowning was found in residents at ages of 65 years and older (16.04/105 to 27.02/105), followed by in residents at ages of less than 5 years (2.54/105 to 16.37/105). The overall mortality of drowning was 5.29/105 to 7.21/105 among residents in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, and no significant change tendency was seen (APC=-2.18%, t=-2.085, P=0.071). The standardized mortality of drowning reduced from 6.10/105 to 3.69/105 (APC=-4.88%, t=-4.215, P=0.003). In addition, the YPLL and rate of YPLL, and WYPLL and the rate of WYPLL due to drowning mortality were 22 620.50 person-years, 0.10%, 17 956.50 person-years and 0.08% in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, respectively, and the rates of YPLL (APC=-6.95%, t=-3.203, P=0.016) and WYPLL (APC=-7.60%, t=-3.126, P=0.014) both appeared a tendency towards a decline from 2012 to 2021. @*Conclusions@#The standardized mortality of drowning and rate of YPLL appeared a tendency towards a decline among residents living in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, and residents at ages of 65 years and older and less than 5 years are high-risk populations for management of drowning mortality.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand the trend of cardiovascular diseases death and disease burden caused by early death from 2009 to 2018 in Ningbo, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of cardiovascular disease.@*Methods@#The monitoring data of cardiovascular diseases death from 2009 to 2018 was collected from Ningbo death cause surveillance system. The mortality rate, early death probability, years of life lost ( YLL ) and working years of potential life lost ( WYPLL ) were calculated, and the mortality rate and YLL rate were standardized by 2010 national standard population. The annual percentage change ( APC ) was used to measure the time trend. @*Results@#From 2009 to 2018, there were 42 961 deaths from cardiovascular diseases in Ningbo, with a mortality rate of 7.35/104, a standardized mortality rate of 4.25/104, and an early death probability of 0.84%. The APC of cardiovascular disease mortality and standardized mortality were 57.488% and 6.004%, both showing an upward trend ( P<0.05 ); the APC of the probability of early death was -1.253%, showing a downward trend ( P<0.05 ). The male mortality rate was 4.16×104, which was lower than the female's 4.36/104 ( P<0.05 ). The YLL, standardized YLL rate, and WYPLL for cardiovascular diseases were 329 266.65 person-years, 3.82‰, and 18 355.63 person-years, respectively. The overall APC of YLL is 1.700%, showing an upward trend ( P<0.05 ). The standardized YLL rate of cardiovascular diseases increased with age ( P<0.05 ). with the APC of 1.503%. Ischemic heart disease and hypertensive heart disease were dominant, their YLLs were 105 949.75 and 46 015.68 person-years, respectively. @*Conclusion@#From 2009 to 2018, the mortality of cardiovascular diseases show an increasing trend, while the burden caused by early death in Ningbo reverses. Women and the elderly are high-risk groups, and ischemic heart disease and hypertensive heart disease are high-risk diseases.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the status and the distribution of causes of injuries as well as disease burden in children under 5 years old in Sichuan Province.Methods The death information cards of children who died because of injuries in Sichuan Province in 2012 were analyzed,and the years of potential life lost and working years of potential life lost were calculated to evaluate the disease burden.Results 22.87％ (1 502/6 567) of children lost their lives because of injuries,the mortality of injury was 4.13‰,63.45％ of children died at the age between l and 4,and most of the children died at home or on the road; The top 3 causes of children death of injuries below 5 years old were drowning,accidental suffocation and traffic accidents.The years of potential life lost and working years of potential life lost were 73.05 years and 58.30 years.Conclusion Injury is one of the most mainly risk factor of health and life of children,the government should further prevent and control children injuries.
