RESUMO
To examine the trends of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) mortality and years of life lost (YLL) in China and its provinces from 2005 to 2020, our study used data from China National Mortality Surveillance System (NMSS) to estimate the number and rate of mortality and YLL of NPC by age and sex. We calculated average annual percent change (AAPC) to describe the trend of NPC mortality and YLL over time. We also analyzed the proportion of NPC deaths in all cancer deaths and explored the drivers of change in NPC deaths by decomposition analysis. The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of NPC in China had a significant downward trend from 2.0/100 000 in 2005 to 1.4/100 000 in 2020 (AAPC = -2.4, P < .05). Age-standardized YLL rate also showed the similar trends (AAPC = -2.8, P < .05). Southern provinces including Guangdong (163.9/100 000), Guangxi (130.5/100 000), and Hainan (105.6/100 000) had the highest YLL rate in 2020. The mortality and YLL rate increased with age and males were higher than females. From 2005 to 2020, the proportion of NPC deaths in all cancer deaths remained stable at around 1.0% in China. The total number of deaths of NPC increased by 7.3%, of which age-specific mortality, population growth, and population aging accounted for -46.2%, 8.5% and 45.0%, respectively. NPC remains a significant public health issue in China southern provinces and tailored prevention and control strategies should be strengthened to reduce the burden of premature mortality of NPC in high risk areas.

OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is leading cause of death in China. We aimed to provide national and subnational estimates and its change of premature mortality burden of CVD during 2005-2020. METHODS: Data from multi-source on the basis of national mortality surveillance system (NMSS) was used to estimate mortality and years of life lost (YLL) of total CVD and its subcategories in Chinese population across 31 provinces during 2005-2020. RESULTS: Estimated CVD deaths increased from 3.09 million in 2005 to 4.58 million in 2020; the age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) decreased from 286.85 per 100,000 in 2005 to 245.39 per 100,000 in 2020. A substantial reduction of 19.27% of CVD premature mortality burden, as measured by age-standardized YLL rate, was observed. Ischemic heart disease (IHD), hemorrhagic stroke (HS) and ischemic stroke (IS) were leading 3 causes of CVD death. Marked differences were observed in geographical patterns for total CVD and its subcategories, and it appeared to be lower in areas with higher economic development. Population ageing was dominant driver contributed to CVD deaths increase, followed by population growth. And, age-specific mortality shifts contributed largely to CVD deaths decline in most provinces. CONCLUSION: Substantial discrepancies were demonstrated in CVD premature mortality burden across China. Targeted considerations were needed to integrate primary care with clinical care through intensifying further strategies for reducing CVD mortality among specific subcategories, high risk population and regions with inadequate healthcare resources.

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth cause of cancer death in China. We aimed to provide national and subnational estimates and changes of CRC premature mortality burden during 2005-2020. METHODS: Data from multi-source on the basis of the national surveillance mortality system were used to estimate mortality and years of life lost (YLL) of CRC in the Chinese population during 2005-2020. Estimates were generated and compared for 31 provincial-level administrative divisions in China. RESULTS: Estimated CRC deaths increased from 111.41 thousand in 2005 to 178.02 thousand in 2020; age-standardized mortality rate decreased from 10.01 per 100,000 in 2005 to 9.68 per 100,000 in 2020. Substantial reduction in CRC premature mortality burden, as measured by age-standardized YLL rate, was observed with a reduction of 10.20% nationwide. Marked differences were observed in the geographical patterns of provincial units, and they appeared to be obvious in areas with higher economic development. Population aging was the dominant driver which contributed to the increase in CRC deaths, followed by population growth and age-specific mortality change. CONCLUSIONS: Substantial discrepancies were observed in the premature mortality burden of CRC across China. Targeted considerations were needed to promote a healthy lifestyle, expand cost-effective CRC early screening and diagnosis, and improve medical treatment to reduce CRC mortality among high-risk populations and regions with inadequate healthcare resources.

BACKGROUND: To examine trends in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) mortality and years of life lost (YLL) due to COPD for all provinces in China during 2005-2020. METHODS: Data for COPD mortality were derived from China National Mortality Surveillance System (NMSS). We analyzed the numbers and age-standardized rates of death and YLL due to COPD in China, during 2005-2020. We carried out decomposition analysis to analyze the drivers of change in COPD deaths during the study period. RESULTS: The age-standardized mortality rate of COPD in China decreased significantly from 99.5/100,000 in 2005 to 50.5/100,000 in 2020. Similar trend was seen in the age-standardized YLL rate. The mortality rate increased with age. During 2005-2020, the age-standardized mortality rate decreased in all provinces (except for Tibet) with the largest decline in Jilin (-77.8%), Henan (-68.4%) and Fujian (-67.1%). The decreased number of deaths was decomposed as population growth (8.5%) and population ageing (69.7%) with offset by decline of age-specific mortality (-87.5%). CONCLUSION: COPD remains an important public health problem in China, though significant reductions of COPD mortality and YLL rate were observed. Vigorous prevention and control strategies should be enhanced to improve the quality of life of COPD patients and reduce the premature death caused by COPD in Chinese population.
