Objective To estimate the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among Chinese acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients by meta-analysis and to provide references for the management of AMI patients. Methods We searched databases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library (Issue 6, 2016), CNKI, CBM, WanFang Data and VIP from January 2000 to July 2016, to collect literature regarding the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among patients with AMI. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the methodological quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed by using Comprehensive Meta Analysis (CMA) 2.0 software. Results Totally, 22 cross-sectional studies were included, involving 2 986 AMI patients, of which1 239 were post-myocardial infarction depression patients. The overall incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among the AMI patients was 42.7% (95%CI 36.3% to 49.4%). There was no statistical differences observed when the studies were stratified by sex, regions, scales and years (allP values>0.05). Conclusion In China, the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression is high and rising year by year roughly among AMI patients. The status should be paid more attention.
ObjectiveTo explore whether the vaginal environment changes of pregnant women were correlated with pathogenesis of fungal vaginitis. MethodsWe selected 166 women in their early pregnancy in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Clinic between July 2011 and July 2012 as the study objects (excluding fungal vaginitis patients already confirmed). Two important indicators of changes in pH and the amount of vaginal lactobacilli were chosen to determine changes in the vaginal environment. Using prospective study method, by checking changes in the vaginal environment, the objects were divided into two groups: 96 were in the changing environment group, and 70 were in the normal environment group. Sixty seven of them had a pH value lower or equal to 4.0, and 99 higher than 4.0. Fifty-eight of them had a reduced amount of lactobacillus, and 108 had a normal amount of lactobacillus. The rate of fungal vaginitis in each group was counted. ResultsThe morbidity rate in patients whose pH value was lower than or equal to 4.0 was 17.9% (12/67), while it was 6.1% (6/99) in patients with a pH value higher than 4.0, and the difference was significant (χ2=5.804, P=0.016). The morbidity rate in patients with a reduced amount of lactobacillus was 25.9% (15/58), and it was 2.8% (3/108) in patients with normal lactobacillus, and the difference was also significant (χ2=20.800, P=0.000). The morbidity rate for patients with changing vaginal environment was 16.7% (16/96), and for those with normal environment was 2.9% (2/70), and the difference was significant (χ2=7.985, P=0.005). In those with normal lactobacillus, the reduction of pH value was not correlated with the occurrence of fungal vaginitis (χ2=0.000, P=1.000). ConclusionThe vaginal environment changes during pregnancy (pH value decrease and Lactobacillus decrease) are associated with the incidence of fungal vaginitis, and it can be prevented and treated based on this phenomenon.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the incidence and influencing factors of early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients. MethodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect observational studies on the early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients from inception to January 2, 2024. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata 17.0 software. ResultsA total of 12 studies including 1 121 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients was 75.0% (95%CI 64.0% to 84.0%). Influenced by feeding intolerance, airway management, tube problems, radiological examination, and endoscopy, surgery and so on, interruptions of early enteral nutritional feeding frequently occur in critically ill patients. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that early enteral feeding interruptions in critically ill patients are affected by many factors, and the incidence is high. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To analyze the epidemic trend of prostate cancer in China from 1992 to 2021, and predict its epidemic trends from 2022 to 2032. Methods Based on the data of Chinese population and prostate cancer incidence and mortality from Global Burden of Disease Database, the Joinpoint log-linear model was used to analyze the trends of prostate cancer incidence and mortality, use the age-period-cohort model to analyze the effects of age, period and cohort on changes in incidence and mortality, and the gray prediction model was used to predict the trends of prostate cancer. Results From 1992 to 2021, the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in China showed an upward trend, with AAPC of 5.652% (P<0.001) and 3.466% (P<0.001), and the AAPC of age-standardized incidence decreased to 1.990% (P<0.001), the age-standardized mortality showed a downward trend and was not statistically significant. The results of the age-period-cohort model showed that the net drift values of prostate cancer incidence and mortality were 3.03% and −1.06%, respectively, and the risk of incidence and mortality gradually increased with age and period. The results of the grey prediction model showed that the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer showed an upward trend from 2022 to 2032, and the incidence trend was more obvious. Conclusion The incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in China showed an increasing trend, with a heavy disease burden and severe forms of prevention and control, so it is necessary to do a good job in monitoring the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer, and strengthen the efficient screening, early diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.
ObjectiveTo analyze the trends of incidence, mortality, and burden of disease of cervical cancer in Chinese females from 1990 to 2019.MethodsThe global burden of disease database (GBD) and China health statistics yearbook data was used to analyze the incidence, standardized incidence, mortality, standardized mortality, urban and rural mortality, and burden of cervical cancer among Chinese females using Excel, SPSS 21.0 and Joinpoint Regression Program 4.8.0.1.ResultsThe standardized incidence of cervical cancer among Chinese females increased from 9.21/100 000 in 1990 to 12.06/100 000 in 2019, and the standardized mortality decreased from 8.40/100 000 to 7.36/100 000. The standardized mortality of cervical cancer in 2018 decreased when compared with 2015 in both urban and rural areas. Changes in age-group incidence and mortality indicated that there was a younger trend in cervical cancer. The disease burden indicators (DALY, YLL, and YLD) were increased from 86.49, 84.01, and 1.52 ten thousand person/years to 162.22, 157.40, and 4.83 ten thousand person/years, in which the YLD increased the most (217.76%). The APC of DALY, YLL and YLD were 2.39%, 2.56% and 4.25%, respectively. The proportion of cervical cancer disease burden in female cancer increased in 2019 compared with 1990. And DALY, YLL and YLD increased in the age group of 40 or over, in which DALY of the age group 50-54 increased 167.15%.ConclusionsThe situation of cervical cancer is not optimistic in China. Although the mortality of cervical cancer has decreased in recent years, the number of cases and mortalities is still increasing. Not only the burden of disease is continuously increasing, there is also a younger trend in cervical cancer. Active preventive measures should be taken to reduce the burden of cervical cancer.
Objective The aim of this study was to describe the trends in the burden of breast cancer in women of all ages in China from 1990 to 2021, compare it with the global burden of breast cancer in women, and predict the burden of disease in the next 15 years. Methods Based on the open data of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) in 2021, the incidence, prevalence, mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of breast cancer among women in China and the world were analyzed. Joinpoint was used to calculate annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) to reflect the changing trend of disease burden. An autoregressive composite moving average (ARIMA) model was used to predict the disease burden of breast cancer in women from 2022 to 2036. Results From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized prevalence rate (ASPR) of female breast cancer in China showed an increasing trend, with an average annual increase of 2.400 7% and 2.334 8%, respectively, and the age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized DALYs rate (ASDR) showed a decreasing trend. The average annual decline was 0.290 0% and 0.198 3%, respectively. Meanwhile, ASIR and ASPR of global female breast cancer also showed an increasing trend, with an average annual increase of 0.474 9% and 0.3445 2% respectively, while ASMR and ASDR showed a decreasing trend, with an average annual decrease of 0.425 2% and 0.321 8% respectively. Among them, there were differences in the impact of age on the burden of female breast cancer. The peak of ASIR and ASPR appeared in the age group of 50 to 69 years old, and generally increased with the increase of age, and then decreased when reaching the peak. ASMR and ASDR increased with age. In the following 15 years, the prevalence of breast cancer in women in China and globally showed an increasing trend, while the mortality rate showed a decreasing trend. Conclusion From the analysis of the disease burden from 1990 to 2021, breast cancer has a huge harm to women, and the incidence of young and middle-aged women is high, the death rate of middle-aged and elderly women is high, and the disease time is long, which brings a heavy psychological and economic burden to patients and society. From the trend forecast for the next 15 years, the prevalence of breast cancer in women in China and the world will increase, while the mortality rate will decrease slightly, but the decrease is not large, which will bring huge public health challenges and put higher requirements on the prevention and control of the disease. To reduce the disease burden of breast cancer, comprehensive strategies for disease control are needed, including prevention of risk factors at the primary care level, screening of at-risk populations, and quality medical services.
ObjectiveThis study aimed to analyze the disease burden of pancreatitis in China from 1990 to 2019 and to provide references for the prevention and treatment of pancreatitis. MethodsThe data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (GBD 2019). The incidence, mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs) and their corresponding age-standardized rate, and annual average percentage change (AAPC) were selected as the main indicators to compare the burden of pancreatitis in China, the United States and globally from 1990 to 2019. ResultsIn 2019, the age-standardized incidence, mortality, DALY, YLL, and YLD rates in China were 26.76/100 000, 0.59/100 000, 16.09/100 000, 14.61/100 000, and 1.48/100 000, respectively, and decreased by 8.94%, 45.33%, 49.12%, 50.98%, and 18.49%, respectively, compared with those in 1990. The burden of pancreatitis in China gradually increased with age, but was lower than that in the United States and globally. The DALY due to alcohol continually increased in China, the United States, and globally. ConclusionFrom 1990 to 2019, the burden of pancreatitis in China shows a decreasing trend and is lower than that in the United States and globally. However, the disease burden caused by alcohol and aging is increasing; therefore, effective measurements to alleviate the burden of pancreatitis in China are needed.
ObjectiveTo survey the current situation of post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) among patients in respiratory intensive careunit (RICU), and explore the effect factors of PICS.MethodsBy convenience sampling, 125 patients in the RICU of Peking University First Hospital were recruited in the study. The patients were tested for PICS using Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE), Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Medical Research Council (MRC), Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14), including three aspects of cognition, psychology and physiology. The effect factors of PICS were measured through researcher-created Questionnaire on Patients’ General Information and Questionnaire on Disease-Related Information.ResultsIn this study, the actual effective sample size was 110 cases, among which 59 cases developed PICS, with an incidence of 53.6%. Logistic regression showed that effect factors of PICS were age, invasive mechanical ventilation time, noninvasive ventilator assisted ventilation time and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (P< 0.05).ConclusionsThe incidence of PICS in RICU patients is 53.6%, which is at a high level. Advanced age, long duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, long duration of non-invasive ventilator assisted ventilation, and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease are the risk factors of PICS. Medical and nursing staff should pay more attention to PICS, intervene in the risk factors of the patient, and take targeted measures to prevent the occurrence of PICS.
ObjectiveTo explore the regional and urban-rural disparities in the hypertension incidence of Chinese adults. MethodsBased on the data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), as well as the consumption level and altitude data from the National Bureau of Statistics and government official website, a robust multilevel Poisson regression was performed to explore the regional and urban-rural disparities in the hypertension incidence of Chinese adults, according to data and design types. ResultsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 11 579 subjects and totaling 50 957 lines of data were enrolled. The 24 years follow-up results indicated that the crude incidence density of hypertension was 37.08/1 000 person years, with 40.51/1 000 person years for males and 34.13/1 000 person years for females. The robust multilevel Poisson regression results indicated that, by adjusting the high-level factors such as time, the proportion of the community mainly engaged in agricultural labor, and the consumption level of subjects, as well as sociodemographic characteristics such as age and gender, the Middle (RR=1.20, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.39), Northeast (RR=1.25, 95%CI 1.03 to 1.52), and Eastern (RR=1.25, 95%CI 1.05 to 1.48) China had a higher risk of developing hypertension than the Western China. The risk of hypertension in urban area was lower than that in rural area (RR=0.87, 95%CI 0.77 to 0.96). ConclusionThe incidence density of hypertension in China is relatively high, and male is higher than female. The incidence of hypertension in the Western China is lower than that in the Middle, Northeast and Eastern China, and urban area is lower than rural area.
ObjectivesTo analyze the trend of incidence and mortality of bladder cancer from 1990 to 2017 and the effects of age, time period and birth cohort on bladder cancer incidence and mortality.MethodsData on age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized death rate (ASDR) of bladder cancer from 1990 to 2017 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 (GBD 2017) database. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the average annual percentage change of ASIR and ASDR of bladder cancer. The age-period-cohort model was established to analyze the age, period and birth cohort effects on ASIR and ASDR of bladder cancer.ResultsFrom 1990 to 2017, both ASIR and ASDR of bladder cancer decreased slightly. ASIR decreased from 6.42 per 100 000 in 1990 to 6.04 per 100 000 in 2017, with an average annual percentage change of −0.9% (−1.0% to −0.8%), and ASDR decreased from 3.15 per 100 000 in 1990 to 2017 2.57/100 000, with an average annual percentage change of −0.4% (−0.4% to −0.3%). The age-period-cohort model results showed that as age increased, the risk of bladder cancer incidence and mortality increased; as the birth cohort progressed, the risk of bladder cancer morbidity and mortality decreased. The time period had little effect on the incidence and mortality of bladder cancer.ConclusionsThe incidence and mortality of bladder cancer are declining globally. On the other hand, the increase of the aging global population could reverse the incidence and mortality trend, active measures should be taken to address the adverse effects of aging.
