Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study is to analyze the trend of burden of ischemic heart disease (IHD) in China between 1990 and 2015. Methods: Data were collected from the results of 2015 Global Burden of Disease Study. We arranged and analyzed the mortality and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) for IHD by sexes, ages and provinces (excluding Taiwan, China) in China between 1990 and 2015. The age-standardized rates were determined using the average world population age structure in the period of 2010-2035 as a reference, and the changes of the related indicators were calculated. Results: In 2015, IHD caused 1 461 thousand deaths, and its age-standardized death rate was 114.8 per 100 000. Number of DALYs from IHD were 25 765 thousand in 2015, with the age-standardized DALY rate at 1 760.2 per 100 000. From 1990 to 2015, the age-standardized death rate for IHD in China increased by 13.3% but age-standardized DALY rate decreased by 3.9%. Number of IHD DALYs among male (16 664 thousand) was higher than it among female (9 101 thousand) in China in 2015, and 83.5% of total DALYs from IHD occurred among people aged over 50 years old. Province with highest age-standardized death rate was Heilongjiang, with rate at 187.4 per 100 000 in 2015. Qinghai (54.0%) increased most and Macao (-52.3%) decreased most from 1990 to 2015. Province with highest age-standardized DALY rate was Xinjiang, with rate at 3 040.8 per 100 000 in 2015. Qinghai (33.2%) increased most while Macao (-59.0%) decreased most between 1990 and 2015. Conclusion: Burden of IHD in China increased remarkably from 1990 to 2015, especially among males and people aged over 50 years old. The differences among provinces were obvious.

目的: 研究1990—2015年中国缺血性心脏病(IHD)疾病负担的变化趋势。 方法: 利用2015年全球疾病负担研究结果,整理和分析1990—2015年中国不同性别、年龄、省份(不包括中国台湾)IHD的死亡率、伤残调整寿命年(DALY),以2010—2035年世界人口平均年龄结构为标准人口,计算年龄标化率,并计算相关指标的变化情况。 结果: 2015年,中国IHD死亡146.1万例,标化死亡率为114.8/10万;DALY为2 576.5万人年,标化DALY率为1 760.2/10万。与1990年相比,2015年IHD的标化死亡率上升13.3%,标化DALY率下降3.9%。2015年男性IHD的DALY为1 666.4万人年,高于女性(910.1万人年);≥50岁人群的DALY占IHD总DALY的83.5%。2015年标化死亡率最高的省份为黑龙江(187.4/10万);与1990年相比,2015年标化死亡率上升和下降最快的省份分别为青海(54.0%)和澳门特别行政区(-52.3%)。2015年标化DALY率最高的省份是新疆(3 040.8/10万),与1990年相比,2015年标化DALY率上升和下降最快的省份分别为青海(33.2%)和澳门特别行政区(-59.0%)。 结论: 1990—2015年中国IHD疾病负担总体上显著增加,主要危害男性和50岁及以上人群,地区差异明显。.
