Objective To systematically review the epidemic trend and disease burden of ischemic stroke in the Chinese population and to provide references for formulating reasonable prevention and treatment measures and allocating health resources. Methods Based on Global Burden of Disease (GBD) data, we analyzed the morbidity, mortality, disability-adjusted life year (DALY) and normalized rates for ischemic stroke in China from 1990 to 2019 and evaluated the changes in the disease burden by sex and age group. Meanwhile, joinpoint regression model was constructed to analyze the time trend change in each stage during the study period. Results Compared with 1990, the incidence, mortality and DALY rate of ischemic stroke in China increased by 171.68%, 125.60% and 98.60% in 2019, among which the incidence, mortality and DALY rate of males increased by 184.29%, 148.96% and 115.16%, respectively; the morbidity, mortality and DALY rates of females increased by 160.9%, 101.32% and 81.44%, respectively. The age-standardized incidence increased by 34.70%, while the age-standardized mortality and age-standardized DALY rate decreased by 3.33% and 4.02%, respectively; the age-standardized incidence, mortality and DALY rates of males increased by 39.52%, 8.03% and 3.68%, respectively; the age-standardized incidence rate of females increased by 31.40%, while the age-standardized mortality rate and age-standardized DALY rate decreased by 14.02% and 11.53%, respectively. In 2019, both the mortality rate and DALY rate due to ischemic stroke increased with age, and the highest rate was found in the population over 85 years old. Males over 60 years old were significantly than females. In the 55-84 age group, the incidence of ischemic stroke in females was higher than that in males, while in the 85 and above age group, the incidence of ischemic stroke in females was lower than that in males. The AAPC of age-standardized incidence, age-standardized mortality, and age-standardized DALY rates due to ischemic stroke from 1990 to 2019 were 1.06% (95%CI 1.00% to 1.11%), 0.01% (95%CI −0.45% to 0.48%) and −0.16% (95%CI −0.53% to 0.22%), respectively. All indicators of the AAPC for males were higher than those for females. ConclusionThe curvent age-standardized mortality and DALY rate of ischemic stroke in China have decreased slightly compared with 1990. The crude mortality, morbidity and disease burden have significantly increased. All indicators of the AAPC for males were higher than those for females. To reduce the epidemic trend and disease burden of ischemic stroke, reasonable prevention and treatment measures and rational allocation of health resources should be made according to sex and age.
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.
Incidence rate is a common effect measure. The incidence rate ratio refers to the ratio of two different incidence rates. It is used to compare the difference in the number of cases per unit person-time between two groups. RevMan software can not perform a meta-analysis with the incidence rate ratio as the effect size at present. A set of simulation data was used to demonstrate a meta-analysis process with the incidence rate ratio as the effect size by using the meta package of R Studio software in this article.
ObjectiveThis study aims to analyze the trends in Parkinson’s disease incidence rates among the elderly population in China from 1990 to 2021 and to forecast incidence growth over the next 20 years, providing. MethodsJoinpoint regression and age-period-cohort models were employed to analyze temporal trends in Parkinson’s disease incidence, and the Nordpred model was used to predict case numbers and incidence rates among the elderly in China from 2022 to 2044. ResultsFindings indicated a significant increase in Parkinson’s disease incidence among China’s elderly population from 1990 to 2021, with crude and age-standardized incidence rates rising from 95.37 per 100 000 and 111.05 per 100 000 to 170.52 per 100 000 and 183.91 per 100 000, respectively. Predictions suggested that by 2044, the number of cases will rise to approximately 878 264, with the age-standardized incidence rate reaching 223.4 per 100 000, and men showing significantly higher incidence rates than women. The rapid increase in both cases and incidence rates indicated that Parkinson’s disease will continue to impose a heavy disease burden on China’s elderly population. ConclusionThe burden of Parkinson’s disease in China’s elderly population has grown significantly and is expected to worsen. To address the rising incidence rates effectively, it is recommended to enhance early screening and health education for high-risk groups, improve diagnostic and treatment protocols, and prioritize resource allocation to Parkinson’s disease prevention and care services to reduce future public health burdens.
ObjectiveTo explore the influence of nursing interruption event intervention on the incidence of nursing risk events. MethodsIn January 2012, we carried out intervention on nursing interruption events. And general situation questionnaire was used on December 30th, 2011 (control group) and December 30th, 2012 (intervention group) respectively to investigate 190 clinical nurses. ResultsThe occurrence of the interruption events was positively correlated with the incidence of nursing risk events. Effective intervention significantly reduced the incidence of risk events (P<0.05). ConclusionEffective prevention of adverse outcomes caused by interruption events reduces the risk of nursing, improves the quality of care, and ensures the safety of the patient.
Objective To analyze the incidence and mortality of asthma in China from 1990 to 2019, and to explore the influence of age, period and cohort on the incidence and mortality of asthma. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 database, the incidence and mortality of asthma in China from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed, and the time variation trend of age-standardized incidence and mortality was analyzed by using Joinpoint software, and the average annual variation percentage was calculated. The age-period-cohort model was constructed to analyze the influence of age, period and birth cohort on the incidence and mortality trend of asthma. Results In 2019, the incidence of asthma in China was 264.44/100 000, and the mortality rate was 1.74/100 000. The incidence rate of asthma in males (300.94/100 000) and mortality rate (1.99/100 000) were higher than those in females (226.51/100 000 and 1.49/100 000). From 1990 to 2019, the age-standardized incidence of asthma in China showed a downward trend, but the trend was not statistically significant (P>0. 05), and the age-standardized mortality showed a downward trend, with an average annual decrease of 4.90%, with a statistically significant trend (P<0.05). The results of age effect showed that the incidence of asthma in China showed a downward trend, and the death first showed a downward trend, and then increased in the age group of 55-59. The results of period effect show that the risk of asthma is decreasing, and then it is increasing from 2015 to 2019, and the risk of asthma mortality is decreasing. The results of cohort effect show that the later people are born, the lower the risk of asthma onset and death. The death of asthma is attributed to behavioral risk, high body mass index and tobacco, and the occupational risk tends to decrease. ConclusionsFrom 1990 to 2019, the incidence and mortality of asthma in China showed a decreasing trend, and the incidence and mortality of men were higher than that of women. The risk factors of behavioral risk, high body mass index and tobacco were still on the rise, so corresponding measures should be taken to carry out early screening, early detection, and early treatment for key populations.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the complications of knee arthroscopic surgeries in China.MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases to collect cross-sectional studies on the complications of knee arthroscopic surgeries in China from inception to March 1st, 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 12.0 software.ResultsA total of 36 studies involving 20 740 cases were included. The results of meta-analysis showed the incidence rate of complication in knee arthroscopic surgeries in China was 9.71% (95%CI 8.20% to 11.23%). Subgroup analysis showed that the complication incidence rates in the eastern, central and western regions were 10.04% (95%CI 8.00% to 12.14%), 9.67% (95%CI 6.57% to 12.76%) and 7.47% (95%CI 6.20% to 8.73%). The complication incidence rates in the upper first-class and non-upper first-class hospitals were 9.50% (95%CI 7.83% to 11.17%) and 10.95% (95%CI 6.75% to 15.14%). The top 3 complication types with highest incidence rate included joint effusion［2.16% (95%CI 1.44% to 2.87%)］, accidental injury of native structures［1.49% (95%CI 0.96% to 2.03%)］ and hemorrhage［1.43% (95%CI 1.01% to 1.84%)］. Other severe complications including neurovascular injury, thrombosis diseases and infection were 0.06% (95%CI 0.02% to 0.11%), 0.33% (95%CI 0.19% to 0.48%) and 0.08% (95%CI 0.03% to 0.13%).ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that the complication incidence rate of arthroscopic surgeries in China is relatively high and the complication type is complex and varied. Due to the quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions in future.
ObjectiveTo describe the cancer incidence and mortality in Henan cancer registries in 2014.MethodsRegistration data (including incidence, mortality and population data) were evaluated according to the criteria of quality control of cancer registry. The incidence, mortality, and cumulative rate (0 to 74 years old) were calculated and stratified by area (urban/rural), gender, and age. Chinese Population Census in 2000 and Segi’s Population were used for age-standardized incidence and mortality rates.ResultsThe total covered population of the 27 cancer registries in 2014 was 21 044 835, accounting for 19.73% of Henan's total population at the end of 2014. The crude incidence rate in Henan cancer registration areas was 252.79/100 000 (males 273.55/100 000, females 230.70/100 000). Age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population and by world standard population were 205.27/100 000 and 203.78/100 000 with the cumulative incidence rate (0 to 74 years old) of 24.17%. The cancer mortality in Henan was 156.58/100 000 (188.10/100 000 in males and 123.02/100 000 in females). The age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population and by world standard population were 123.94/100 000 and 123.80/100 000, and the cumulative incidence rate (0 to 74 years old) was 14.30%. Lung cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical cancer, encephala, leukemia and thyroid cancer were the most common cancers, accounting for approximately 83% of all cancer cases in urban and rural areas. Lung cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, encephala, leukemia, pancreatic cancer and cervical cancer accounted for approximately 88% of all cancer deaths.ConclusionsThe age-standardized incidence and mortality in Henan are above the national level. The common cancers in Henan are lung cancer, female breast cancer and digestive system cancers. The strategy of cancer prevention and control in Henan should be implemented depending on pratical situations.
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 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.
