ABSTRACT
Resumo Fundamento: As doenças cardiovasculares (DCV) têm ônus sanitário e econômico significativos. Na América do Sul (AS), a perda de produtividade relacionada a estas enfermidades ainda não foi bem explorada. Objetivo: Estimar os anos de vida produtiva perdidos (AVPP) e a perda de produtividade relacionados a mortalidade prematura associada as DCV na AS, em 2019. Métodos: Empregou-se dados de mortalidade disponíveis no Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 na estimativa da carga de doença atribuível a DCV. Para os cálculos monetários da perda da produtividade usou-se uma proxy da abordagem de capital humano. Estratificou-se por sexo, nas faixas etárias de trabalho. Resultados: O número total de mortes por DCV na AS no ano de 2019 foi de 754.324 e os AVPP foram 2.040.973. A perda permanente de produtividade total foi de aproximadamente US$ 3,7 bilhões e US$ 7,8 bilhões em paridade do poder de compra, equivalente a 0,11% do produto interno bruto. O custo por morte foi de US$ 22.904, e a razão desse custo por óbito, entre homens e mulheres foi 1,45. A variação dos cenários aponta robustez nas estimativas, mesmo com diferenças importantes entre os países. Conclusões: As DCV impõem um ônus econômico significativo a este bloco de países. A caracterização deste fardo pode amparar os governos na alocação de recursos destinados ao planejamento e execução de políticas e intervenções sanitárias, sejam de promoção, prevenção ou recuperação.
Abstract Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have significant health and economic burdens. In South America, the loss of productivity related to these diseases has not yet been well explored. Objective: Estimate the potentially productive years of life lost (PPYLL) and loss of productivity related to premature mortality associated with CVD in South America, in 2019. Methods: Mortality data available from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study were used to estimate the burden of disease attributable to CVD. For monetary calculations of productivity loss, a proxy of the human capital approach was used. Data were stratified by sex, in working age groups. Results: The total number of deaths due to CVD in South America in 2019 was 754,324, and the total number of PPYLL was 2,040,973. The total permanent loss of productivity was approximately US$ 3.7 billion and US$ 7.8 billion in purchasing power parity, equivalent to 0.11% of the gross domestic product. The cost per death was US$ 22,904, and the ratio between men and women for the cost per death was 1.45. The variation in scenarios indicates that the estimates are robust, even with important differences between countries. Conclusions: CVD impose a significant economic burden on countries in South America. The characterization of this burden can support governments in the allocation of resources for the planning and execution of health policies and interventions in promotion, prevention, and recovery.
ABSTRACT
Objectives:To explore the burden and trend of cardiovascular diseases(CVD)attributed to household air pollution(HAP)in the world and China from 1990 to 2019. Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease(GDB)database in 2019,the CVD data attributed to HAP in China and around the world were extracted,and the mortality and disability-adjusted life years(DALY)and their age standardized rate(ASR)and estimated annual percentage change(EAPC)were used to analyze the burden of disease and trend in China and other regions and countries from 1990 to 2019. Results:From 1990 to 2019,the age-standardized death rate(ASDR)(EAPC=-3.65,95%CI:-3.86 to-3.44),and the age-standardized DALY rate(EAPC=-3.60,95%CI:-3.78 to-3.41)attributable to HAP for CVD globally showed a decreasing trend.In China,the ASDR(EAPC=-5.78,95%CI:-6.17 to-5.38)and the age-standardized DALY rate(EAPC=-5.97,95%CI:-6.32 to-5.62)also showed a declining trend.The burden of males was slightly higher than females,reaching its peak at the age of 75 to 89 years.The largest increase of the burden of CVD attributed to HAP was in Philippines(ASDR:EAPC[95%CI]=0.87[0.21-1.54];age-standardized DALY rate:EAPC[95%CI]=1.32[0.60-2.03]),and the largest decline was in Saudi Arabia(ASDR:EAPC[95%CI]=-18.48[-18.63 to-18.32];age-standardized DALY rate:EAPC[95%CI]=-18.25[-18.38 to-18.12]).In 2019,the highest disease burden of CVD related to HAP per 100 000 people was significantly higher in ASDR(56.67,95%UI:42.08-73.07)and age-standardized DALY rate(1 318.63,95%UI:997.40-1 672.29)in areas with low social demographic index(SDI)than in other SDI areas.In 2019,among the 21 geographical regions and 204 countries in the world,the highest disease burden per 100 000 people was in Oceania,and the highest country was Solomon Islands,the corresponding ASDR of China was 12.52(95%UI:6.35-21.29)and the age-standardized DALY rate was 262.65(95%UI:133.90-447.50). Conclusions:From 1990 to 2019,the age-standardized burden of CVD attributable to HAP in the world and China showed a consistent downward trend,with males slightly higher than females,and the burden concentrated on population between 75 and 89 years old.Although there has been a certain decline in China,the disease burden is still high,so there is still a urgent need to take strong intervention measures to reduce burden of CVD attributable to HAP in China.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze trends in the disease burden of esophageal cancer attributable to high body mass index (BMI) in the Chinese and United States populations from 1990 to 2019 and predict deaths over the next 10 years. Methods This study used Global Burden of Disease 2019 data to obtain mortality and disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) data by year, gender, and age for the disease burden of esophageal cancer attributable to high BMI in China and the United States from 1990 to 2019. Joinpoint regression analysis was conducted to analyze long-term trends. Bayesian age–period–cohort analysis was used to predict age-standardized mortality attributable to esophageal cancer in 2020–2030. Results From 1990 to 2019, the age-standardized mortality rate for esophageal cancer attributable to high BMI in China increased from 1.44/105 to 1.80/105 and the age-standardized DALY rate increased from 34.17/105 to 40.79/105. From the perspective of gender, the number of deaths, DALYs, and the corresponding age-standardized rate of males in China and the United States increased from 1990 to 2019. The age-standardized mortality and DALY rates of Chinese women showed a downward trend, decreasing by 21.36/105 and 29.71/105, respectively. Joinpoint analysis results revealed that the average annual percentage changes (AAPCs) in mortality attributable to esophageal cancer in the total population and men in China from 1990 to 2019 increased by 0.78% (95%CI: 0.71-0.84) and 1.52% (95%CI: 1.44-1.60), respectively, and that in females decreased by 0.88% (95%CI: −0.96-−0.80). AAPC in women in the United States rose at a slow rate of 0.07% (95%CI: 0.02-0.09). The burden of esophageal cancer deaths attributable to high BMI is predicted to continue to rise in China and the United States in 2020–2030. Conclusion The disease burden of esophageal cancer attributable to high BMI significantly increased in China from 1990 to 2019. The disease burden of esophageal cancer caused by high BMI in China is expected to increase from 2020 to 2030.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the burden and changing trend of testicular cancer in China from 1990 to 2019.Methods Based on the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Database(GBD 2019),analyze the incidence,mortality,disability-adjusted life years(DALYs),years of life lost(YLLs),years lived with disability(YLDs)and their variation trend of testicular cancer in Chinese population from 1990 to 2019.Evaluating changes in age standardized rate(ASR)by calculating annual estimated percentage change(EAPC).According to the age grouping,analyze the age distribution characteristics of testicular cancer disease burden by age group.Results In 2019,the incident cases,deaths,age-standardized incidence rate,and age-standardized mortality rate of testicular cancer in China were 17.17×103,1.21×103,2.39/105,and 0.16/105,respectively.Compared to 1990,incident cases,deaths,and age-standardized incidence rate increased obviously in China,which was consistent with the global change trend,while the increase was higher than the global level.However,both Chinese and global age-standardized mortality rate showed a downward trend.From 1990 to 2019,DALYs,YLLs and YLDs of testicular cancer increased by 29.66%,9.83%and 720.91%respectively in China.The two age groups,0-15 years group and 30-35 years group,were with highest incidence of testicular cancer,while the highest disease burden of testicular cancer was 30-35 years.Conclusion From 1990 to 2019,the disease burden of testicular cancer in China showed an upward trend.Adolescents and young adults should be the priority population for screening and prevention due to their higher incidence and disease burden.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the disease burden and risk factors of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2019, so as to provide the basis for prevention and control of colorectal cancer.@*Methods@#Based on data of 2019 Global Burden of Disease (GDB 2019), disease burden and risk factors of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2019 was assessed using years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), disability-adjusted life years (DALY).@*Results@#In 2019, the YLL rate, YLD rate and DALY rate caused by colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province were 496.15/105, 31.81/105 and 527.96/105, respectively. From 1990 to 2019, the YLL rate, YLD rate and DALY rate caused by colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province increased by 114.90%, 482.60% and 123.38%, respectively, showing increasing trends (average annual percent change values were =2.663, 6.283 and 2.800, respectively,all P<0.05). From 1990 to 2019, the YLL rate, YLD rate and DALY rate in the age groups of 15 to 49 years, 50 to 69 years and 70 years and older showed increasing trends (all P<0.05). In 1990, the top ten risk factors for colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province were diet low in calcium, diet low in milk, diet low in whole grains, smoking, alcohol use, low physical activity, high fasting plasma glucose, diet high in red meat, diet low in fiber and high body mass index. In 2019, the top ten risk factors for colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province were diet low in milk, diet low in whole grains, diet low in calcium, alcohol use, diet high in red meat, high body mass index, high fasting plasma glucose, low physical activity, diet low in fiber and diet high in processed meat.@*Conclusions@#The disease burden of colorectal cancer in Zhejiang Province showed an upward trend from 1990 to 2019. The top ten risk factors for colorectal cancer remained between 1990 and 2019, while there was a slight change in ranking.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the HIV/AIDS burden and the disease burden attributed to various risk factors in four countries with different socio-demographic index (SDI) (China, United States, Russia, and Afghanistan) from 1990 to 2019, and to predict the HIV/AIDS attributable disease burden from 2020 to 2029. Methods The 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study data was used to describe and compare the incidence, prevalence, death, and DALYs of HIV/AIDS in the four countries. The standardized DALYs attributed to various risk factors in different age groups of HIV/AIDS in the four countries in 1990 and 2019 were compared. R4.3.0 was used to construct an autoregressive moving average mixed model to predict the attributable disease burden in each country over the next decade. Results Compared with 1990, in 2019, the standardized incidence rate, standardized prevalence rate, standardized mortality rate, and standardized DALYs rate in China and the other two countries, except the United States, showed an increase. People aged 10 to 49 years old were a key group for disease burden, and the main risk factors for disease burden varied among different countries and age groups. The autoregressive moving average mixed model predicted that the main risk factor for Russia in the next decade would be injecting drugs, while unsafe sexual behavior would occur in the other three countries. Conclusion There are differences in disease burden and risk factors among different genders and age groups globally and in the four different SDI countries. Therefore, differences should be fully considered to determine the focus of HIV/AIDS prevention and control and rationally allocate health resources.
ABSTRACT
Objective To identify the disease burden and indirect economic burden caused by lung cancer in Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, from 1981 to 2020. Methods The incidence and death cases of lung cancer were obtained from cancer registry and death cause monitoring data. The disability adjusted life years (DALY) was used as the evaluation index for burden posed by lung cancer on health, and the indirect economic burden was calculated by a human capital method. Results From 1981 to 2020, a total of 9272 deaths due to lung cancer were reported in Kunshan, of which 7106 were males and 2166 were females. The DALY caused by lung cancer in the whole population were 3.81, 4.14, 4.38, and 9.46 in 1981–1990, 1991–2000, 2001–2010, and 2011–2020, respectively. The indirect economic burden caused by lung cancer was 10.515, 141.657, 813.794, and 6659.149 million yuan. From 2011 to 2020, the ratios of years of life lost due to premature mortality to DALY in males, females, and the general population were 92.42%, 95.15%, and 93.60%, respectively. Conclusion The health burden and indirect economic burden for lung cancer are substantial in the Kunshan City. Moreover, age-specific DALY and indirect economic burden are not exactly symmetrical, suggesting that an effective control strategy to lower cost is urgently needed, especially for individuals aged 40-59.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To assess the evolving burden of cataracts in China from 1990 to 2019.METHODS: Data on disease burden related to cataracts in China were retrieved from the Global Burden of Disease(GBD)2019 study based on large public databases. Utilizing data from the GBD 2019 study, we extracted information on cataract-related disease burden in China from extensive public databases. Analysis of prevalence and disability-adjusted life years(DALYs)associated with cataracts in China was conducted based on GBD 2019 findings. The variable characteristics of age-standardized prevalence rates(ASPR)and age-standardized DALYs rates(ASDR)in China and its neighboring countries were also explored.RESULTS: Between 1990 and 2019, the number of prevalent cases of blindness and vision loss caused by cataracts in China increased by 223.54%, and the corresponding DALYs raised by 142.14%. Over the past 30 years, females exhibited higher age-standardized prevalence and DALYs rates compared to males. Meanwhile, individuals aged 65 to 84 years were found to be more susceptible to cataracts than other age groups. Compared with neighboring countries, China ranked from the 9th position in 1990(867.09, 95%UI: 761.36 to 975.42, per 100 000 population)to the 11th in 2019(991.56, 95%UI: 861.52 to 1131.04, per 100 000 population)in ASPR, while from the 9th in 1990(65.85, 95%UI: 46.39 to 89.41, per 100 000 population)to the 10th position in 2019(59.16, 95%UI: 41.70 to 80.15, per 100 000 population)in ASDR. However, on a global scale, China maintained relatively low ASDR and ASPR for cataracts in 2019.CONCLUSION: The study highlights a substantial rise in the prevalence and DALYs associated with blindness and vision loss due to cataracts from 1990 to 2019 in China, and underscores the urgent need for increased early screening of cataracts, particularly among the elderly and females.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Objetivo. 1) Describir la carga de la enfermedad renal crónica en países de América Latina entre 1990 y 2019 y, 2) estimar la correlación entre los años de vida saludables perdidos (AVISA) con el índice sociodemográfico y el índice de acceso y calidad de salud. Métodos. Análisis secundario y ecológico, basado en el Estudio de la Carga Global de Enfermedades, Lesiones y Factores de Riesgo 2019. Se reportaron las tasas estandarizadas de mortalidad, años perdidos por muertes prematuras (APMP), años de vida ajustados por discapacidad (AVAD) y AVISA por enfermedad renal crónica para 1990, 2005 y 2019. La información se desagregó por países, sexo, grupos etarios y subcausas. Resultados. Entre 1990 y 2019, la carga de la enfermedad renal crónica aumentó considerablemente en los países de América Latina, convirtiéndose en una de las principales causas de mortalidad y de AVISA. La tasa estandarizada de AVISA por enfermedad renal crónica se debió, en gran medida, al peso de las muertes prematuras más que a la discapacidad. En 2019, Nicaragua, El Salvador, México y Guatemala se destacaron por tener las tasas estandarizadas de mortalidad por enfermedad renal crónica y de AVISA más elevadas, mientras que Uruguay presentó las más bajas. Conclusiones. La enfermedad renal crónica es una epidemia invisibilizada que representa una carga excesiva, en mortalidad y AVISA, para los países de América Latina. Es indispensable aunar esfuerzos regionales para enfrentar la enfermedad, además de impulsar acciones locales que atiendan las particularidades de cada país.
ABSTRACT Objective. 1) Describe the burden of chronic kidney disease in Latin American countries between 1990 and 2019; and 2) Estimate the correlation between disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and the Sociodemographic Index and the Healthcare Access and Quality Index. Methods. Secondary and ecological analysis, based on the 2019 Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries and Risk Factors Study. Standardized mortality rates, years of life lost to due to premature death (YLLs),years of healthy life lost due to disability (YLDs) and DALYs due to chronic kidney disease were reported for 1990, 2005, and 2019. Information was disaggregated by country, sex, age group, and sub-cause. Results. Between 1990 and 2019, the burden of chronic kidney disease increased considerably in Latin American countries, becoming one of the main causes of mortality and DALYs. The standardized rate of DALYs for chronic kidney disease was largely due to the weight of premature deaths rather than disability. In 2019, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Mexico, and Guatemala had the highest standardized mortality rates for chronic kidney disease and DALYs, while Uruguay had the lowest. Conclusions. Chronic kidney disease is an invisible epidemic that places an excessive burden in terms of mortality and DALYs on Latin American countries. It is essential to join forces to tackle the disease in the region, and promote local actions that address the particularities of each country.

Entre 1990 e 2019, a carga de doença renal crônica aumentou consideravelmente nos países da América Latina, tornando-se uma das principais causas de mortalidade e de AVISA. A taxa padronizada de AVISA devido à doença renal crônica foi influenciada em grande parte pelo peso das mortes prematuras, e não da incapacidade. Em 2019, Nicarágua, El Salvador, México e Guatemala se destacaram por terem as maiores taxas padronizadas de mortalidade por doença renal crônica e AVISA, ao passo que Uruguai teve as menores taxas. Conclusões. A doença renal crônica é uma epidemia invisível, que representa uma carga excessiva em termos de mortalidade e de AVISA para os países da América Latina. É essencial unir esforços na região para combater a doença, além de promover ações locais que atendam às particularidades de cada país.
ABSTRACT
Resumen Antecedentes: Se estima que los factores de riesgo ambientales (FRA) fueron responsables en 2019 de nueve millones de muertes en el mundo. Objetivo: A partir de datos del estudio Global Burden of Disease, se analizaron indicadores de pérdida de salud asociada a la exposición a FRA en México. Material y métodos: Se analizaron números absolutos y porcentajes poblacionales de muertes y años de vida saludable (AVISA) perdidos según sexo atribuidos a FRA seleccionados en los ámbitos nacional y estatal, así como las tendencias estandarizadas por edad de 1990 a 2021. Resultados: En 2021, la contaminación por material particulado en ambiente exterior mostró la mayor mortalidad y AVISA perdidos por los FRA seleccionados (42.2 y 38.1 %, respectivamente), seguida de la exposición a plomo (20.6 y 13.4 %) y temperatura baja (19.8 y 12.3 %). Ambos indicadores han disminuido en todos los FRA seleccionados, en magnitudes diferentes entre 1991 y 2021, excepto la temperatura alta. Conclusiones: A pesar de las disminuciones en los últimos 32 años, el material particulado en ambiente exterior mostró la mayor mortalidad y AVISA perdidos, seguido de la exposición a plomo. Es fundamental fortalecer las políticas de calidad del aire y exposición a plomo en México.
Abstract Background: It is estimated that environmental risk factors (ERF) were responsible for nine million deaths worldwide in 2019. Objective: Using data from the Global Burden of Disease study, indicators of health loss associated with exposure to ERF in Mexico were analyzed. Material and methods: Absolute numbers and population percentages of deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) lost attributed to selected ERFs were analyzed at the national and state level and by sex, as well as age-standardized trends from 1990 to 2021. Results: In 2021, ambient particulate matter pollution showed the highest mortality and DALYs lost attributed to selected ERFs (42.2 and 38.1% respectively), followed by lead exposure (20.6 and 13.4%) and low temperature (19.8 and 12.3%). Both indicators have decreased for all selected ERAs by different magnitudes between 1991 and 2021, except for high temperature. Conclusions: Despite decreases in the last 32 years, outdoor environment particulate matter showed the highest mortality and DALYs lost, followed by lead exposure. It is essential to strengthen air quality and lead exposure policies in Mexico.
ABSTRACT
Resumen Antecedentes: Las enfermedades respiratorias (ER) se analizan individualmente, posiblemente con subestimación de su carga total. Objetivo: Analizar la carga de las ER en México para población de 20 años o más de 1990 a 2021. Material y métodos: Se presenta la carga de ER en México a partir de estimaciones del estudio Global Burden of Disease en cuanto a mortalidad y años de vida saludable (AVISA) perdidos que comprenden recuentos, tasas por 100 000 y tasas estandarizadas por edad. Las ER se categorizaron en enfermedades respiratorias crónicas (ERC), infecciones respiratorias y cánceres respiratorios. Resultados: En 2021, las ER causaron la muerte de 336 728 adultos mayores de 20 años, lo que representó 30.5 % del total de defunciones, incremento cercano al triple respecto a 2019, principalmente debido a COVID-19. Las ERC contribuyeron con 3.4 % del total de muertes, las infecciones respiratorias con 25.9 % y los cánceres respiratorios con 1.2 %. La mortalidad y AVISA perdidos por ERC se incrementaron persistentemente, con variaciones entre los estados. Las tasas de mortalidad ajustadas por edad de las ERC disminuyeron desde 1990, excepto las enfermedades pulmonares intersticiales, que se incrementaron constantemente. Conclusión: Los significativos niveles de mortalidad y discapacidad debidos a enfermedades respiratorias en México exigen mejorar la prevención, investigación y abordar factores de riesgo como tabaquismo y contaminación, además de fomentar la capacitación médica continua.
Abstract Background: Respiratory diseases (RD) are often analyzed separately rather, possibly leading to an underestimation of their total burden. Objective: To analyze the burden of RD in Mexico for population aged 20 or older from 1990 to 2021. Material y methods: We present the burden of RD in Mexico based on estimates of the Global Burden of Disease study for mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), comprising counts, rates per 100,000, as well as age-standardized rates. RDs were categorized into three key groups: chronic respiratory diseases (CRD), respiratory infections (RI), and respiratory cancers. Results: In 2021, among those aged 20+, RDs were responsible for 336,728 deaths, which accounts for 30.5% of total deaths— a nearly threefold increase since 2019, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic. CRDs contributed with 3.4% of total deaths; RIs, with 25.9%; and respiratory cancers, with 1.2%. CRDs showed a continuous rise in deaths, crude mortality, and DALY rates across genders, with no signs of leveling. RD burden varied widely across states. Age-standardized CRD mortality rates have generally declined since 1990, except for interstitial lung diseases, which have consistently increased. Conclusion: The significant burden of mortality and disability due to RDs in Mexico underscores the necessity for enhanced prevention, research, and for addressing risk factors such as smoking and pollution. Ongoing healthcare training can help reduce RD burden.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Osteoporosis is a chronic disease characterized by a decrease in the density of bone mass, making bone more porous, less resistant and of lower quality than normal bone. This leads to the deterioration of its microstructure, making the bone more fragile and therefore increasing the risk of fracture. It has been found that high concentrations of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium promote the absorption of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus and thus increase mineral density. Due to the great social and economic impacts of osteoporosis, it is necessary to develop interventions that can be easily adopted at the population level, improving the quality of life of individuals without significantly affecting the health system. Objective: Assessing the impact of increased dairy consumption on the Colombian population diagnosed with osteoporosis between 2015 and 2020 through the simulation of the potential impact fraction (PIF). Methods: Using data from the Integrated Social Protection Information System (SISPRO) and National Nutritional Situation Survey (ENSIN), the incidence, the frequency of milk consumption, the potential impact fraction (PIF), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were estimated. Results: A total of 63,640 cases of osteoporosis were identified. The highest incidence was observed in 2019. Seventeen food groups were identified in the ENSIN, and the most frequent products consumed by respondents over 50 years of age were milk, cheese, and yogurt. The PIF was then analysed, with a calcium intake of 600 mg/ day, and a significant difference in the decrease in the number of cases was observed. In 2019, a higher estimated DALY loss of 9.9 was observed. In women, years of life lost due to fractures were the highest in the 65-69 age group. In men, they were highest in the 75-79 age group. Discussion: We observed that the departments with the highest consumption of dairy products were the capital of the country and regions where dairy products factories are located. It was not possible to establish an association between socioeconomic strata and low dairy intake. Nevertheless, some authors have proposed that westernization of diets and low income reduce access to fresh fruits and milk derivates. Conclusion: Years lost due to disability increased in the population over 60 years of age. In the PIF analysis, a decrease in cases was observed when the population increased consumption of dairy products.
Introducción: La osteoporosis es una enfermedad crónica caracterizada por una disminución de la densidad de la masa ósea que hace que el hueso sea más poroso, menos resistente y de menor calidad que el hueso normal. Esto conduce al deterioro de su microestructura, por lo que el hueso se hace más frágil y, por lo tanto, aumenta el riesgo de fractura. Se ha encontrado que las altas concentraciones de Lactobacillus y Bifidobacterium promueven la absorción de minerales como calcio, magnesio y fósforo y, por lo tanto, aumentan la densidad mineral. Debido a los grandes impactos sociales y económicos de la osteoporosis, es necesario desarrollar intervenciones que puedan ser fácilmente adoptadas a nivel poblacional con el fin de mejorar la calidad de vida de los individuos sin afectar significativamente el sistema de salud. Objetivo: Evaluar el impacto del aumento del consumo de lácteos en la población colombiana con diagnóstico de osteoporosis entre 2015 y 2020 mediante la simulación de la fracción de impacto potencial (PIF). Materiales y métodos: Estudio ecológico realizado en adultos mayores de 50 años con diagnóstico de osteoporosis. A partir de los registros del Sistema Integrado de Información de Protección Social (SISPRO) y la Encuesta Nacional de Situación Nutricional (ENSIN), se estimó la incidencia, la frecuencia de consumo de leche, el PIF y los años de vida ajustados por discapacidad (AVAD). Resultados: Se identificaron un total de 63 640 casos de osteoporosis en SISPRO, la mayor incidencia se observó en 2019. Se establecieron 17 grupos de alimentos en la ENSIN, los productos más frecuentes consumidos en población mayor de 50 años fueron leche, queso y yogur. En el cálculo del PIF se encuentra que con una ingesta de calcio de 600 mg/día se reduciría significativamente el número de casos. En 2019 se observó una mayor pérdida estimada de AVAD de 9,9. En las mujeres, los años de vida perdidos debido a fracturas fueron más altos en el grupo de edad de 65 a 69 años. En los hombres, fue más alta en el grupo de edad de 75-79 años. Discusión: Observamos que los departamentos con mayor consumo de productos lácteos fueron la capital y las regiones donde se encuentran las fábricas de productos lácteos. No fue posible establecer una asociación entre los estratos socioeconómicos y la baja ingesta de lácteos. Sin embargo, algunos autores han propuesto que la occidentalización de las dietas y los bajos ingresos reducen el acceso a frutas frescas y derivados de la leche. Conclusión: Los años perdidos por discapacidad aumentaron en la población mayor de 60 años. En el análisis PIF, se observó una disminución en los casos (reducción de 2329 casos/ año) cuando la población aumentó el consumo de productos lácteos.

Introduction: Liver diseases have a significant impact on global morbidity and mortality rates, primarily attributed to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the true extent of their impact on patients, healthcare systems, and countries is often underestimated. Materials and methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study aimed to determine the economic burden associated with premature deaths caused by cirrhosis and primary liver cancer. The economic assessment was conducted by analyzing potentially productive years of life lost (PPYLL) due to liver diseases in Colombia between 2009 and 2016. Results and conclusions: The total burden of liver disease accounted for 687,861 disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). Men experienced a higher number of years of life lost from mortality (YLL), while women had a greater number of years lived with a disability (YLD). The economic burden of deaths caused by cirrhosis and primary liver cancer exceeded USD 8.6 million, highlighting the urgency to enhance intervention strategies ranging from promotion and prevention to timely diagnosis and treatment.
Introducción: la enfermedad hepática representa una de las principales causas de morbimortalidad a nivel mundial, principalmente por cirrosis y hepatocarcinoma; sin embargo, se subestima su impacto para el paciente, sistema de salud y el país. Materiales y métodos: estudio descriptivo de corte transversal que determinó la carga económica asociada a las muertes prematuras por cirrosis y tumores primarios del hígado, mediante la valoración económica de los años productivos de vida potencialmente perdidos (APVPP) en Colombia y de enfermedad hepática en Colombia entre 2009 y 2016. Resultados y conclusiones: la carga total de enfermedad hepática representó 687,861 años de vida saludable perdidos ajustados por discapacidad (AVAD), los hombres con mayores años de vida perdidos por muerte prematura (APMP) y las mujeres con mayores años vividos con discapacidad (AVD). Las muertes por cirrosis y tumores primarios del hígado representan una carga económica que supera los 8,6 millones de dólares, lo cual refleja la necesidad de fortalecer las estrategias de intervención desde la promoción y prevención hasta el diagnóstico y tratamiento oportuno.

Introduction: Gastric cancer (GC) is the first cause of death by neoplasm in Colombia, with 6,451 deaths in 2020. This pathology and its chronic manifestations pose a public health challenge. The objective is to estimate the disease burden of GC in Tunja, Boyacá, from 2010 to 2019. Materials and methods: An exploratory ecological study was conducted using disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) as the unit of measurement. The National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE) mortality databases and prevalence information from the Integrated Social Protection Information System (SISPRO) records were used. Deaths and GC cases were pooled and then adjusted to control for bias. Results: In 2010-2019, 34.2 DALYs were lost for every 1,000 people secondary to GC in Tunja, 30.5 were due to years lost due to premature death, and 3.72 were due to years lived with disability. DALYs due to premature death were found to exceed DALYs due to disability. Conclusion: The morbidity burden of GC from 2010 to 2019 for Tunja was similar to that of other cancers because of years of life lost due to premature death, so public health efforts should be made to increase early detection.
Introducción: el cáncer gástrico (CG) es la primera causa de muerte por neoplasia en Colombia, con 6451 muertes durante el 2020. Esta patología y sus manifestaciones crónicas plantean un desafío en la salud pública. El objetivo fue estimar la carga de enfermedad por CG en Tunja, Boyacá, durante los años 2010 a 2019. Metodología: se realizó un estudio ecológico exploratorio en el que se utilizó como unidad de medida los años de vida ajustados por discapacidad (AVAD). Se emplearon las bases de datos de mortalidad del Departamento Administrativo Nacional de Estadística (DANE) e información de la prevalencia desde los registros del Sistema Integrado de Información de la Protección Social (SISPRO). Las muertes y los casos de CG se agruparon y luego se ajustaron para controlar sesgos. Resultados: en el período 2010-2019 se perdieron 34,2 AVAD por cada 1000 personas secundarios a CG en Tunja, de los cuales 30,5 fueron debido a años perdidos por muerte prematura y 3,72 por años vividos con discapacidad. Se encontró que los AVAD por muerte prematura superan a los AVAD por discapacidad. Conclusión: la carga de morbilidad por CG en el período 2010 a 2019 para la ciudad de Tunja fue similar a la carga de otros cánceres y fue debido a años de vida perdidos por muerte prematura, motivo por el cual se deben realizar esfuerzos de salud pública para aumentar la detección temprana.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the change trend of disease burden in laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China from 1990 to 2019.Methods:Based on data from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study database, the changes of death cases, mortality, disability adjusted life years (DALY) and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking among people with different gender and age in China from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed. Joinpoint software was used to evaluate the annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of attributable mortality and DALY rate. The change trend of laryngeal cancer death attributable to smoking and DALY was analyzed.Results:From 1990 to 2019, the mortality rate and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China showed an overall upward trend (AAPC of mortality was 1.6%, P < 0.05;AAPC of DALY rate was 1.26%, P < 0.05). In 2019, 75.64% of laryngeal cancer deaths in China were attributable to smoking, with 15 336 attributable deaths, 1.08/100 000 attributable mortality rates, 376 143 person-year attributable DALY and 26.45/100 000 attributable DALY rates, respectively. The population attributable fraction, death number, mortality rate, DALY and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in males were higher than those in females. In China, the number of laryngeal cancer deaths and DALY attributable to smoking peaked in the age group of 50-69 years old, and the attributable mortality and DALY rate peaked in the age group of ≥70 years old. Conclusions:The disease burden of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking is high in China from 1990 to 2019, and there are differences in gender and age.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo analyze the disease burden in Sichuan Province in 2010 and 2020， and to provide reference for disease prevention and control. MethodsMonitoring data on causes of death in Sichuan Province in 2010 and 2020 were collected. Disability-adjusted life years （DALY）， years of life lost （YLL） and years lived with disability （YLD） were calculated to assess the disease burden in Sichuan Province. ResultsIn 2020， DALY was 7.004 0 million years， among which YLL and YLD were 3.719 6 million and 3.284 4 million， respectively. Compared with 2010， the total DALY in 2020 increased by 8.27%， most of which came from the increase of YLL （16.66%）. In 2020， the standardized total DALY rate was 69.91‰， which decreased by 9.87% compared with 2010. Specifically， the rate decreased by 15.87% for females and 5.28% for males. In 2020， the burden of DALY disease in the elderly over 60 years old increased by 34.55% compared with 2010. The burden of infectious and maternal diseases decreased the most， and the standardized DALY rates of male and female in 2020 decreased by 47.03% and 55.50% compared with 2010， respectively. Injury was the next most important factor， which decreased by 32.97% in males and 26.92% in females. The standardized DALY rate of chronic diseases increased by 5.41% in males and decreased by 10.67% in females. In 2020， compared with 2010， the standardized DALY rate of males increased significantly in diabetes （82.02%）， nervous system and mental disorders （26.31%）， and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases （19.86%）. Among women， significant increases were seen in diabetes mellitus （54.74%）， neurological and mental disorders （35.52%）， and musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases （23.51%）. ConclusionThe overall disease burden in Sichuan Province shows a declining trend， mainly attributed to the decrease in infectious and maternal diseases and injuries. The disease burden among people over 60 years old has increased significantly， with the focus on chronic diseases such as diabetes， cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， nervous system and mental disorders， and musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the impact of low whole grain intake on the burden and trend of colorectal cancer in China, and to explore health management strategies for high-risk populations. Methods Using the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD 2019) data, the Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the mortality rate and disability adjusted life years (DALYs) of colorectal cancer in China caused by low whole grain intake from 1990 to 2019. Results The number of colorectal cancer deaths, mortality and DALYs of residents over 70 years old caused by low whole grain intake in China increased from 4 615, 12.06/105 and 187.66/100 000 in 1990 to 21 094 , 19.54/100 000 and 291.02/100 000 in 2019. The trend analysis found that the total crude mortality rate of colorectal cancer in Chinese residents over 70 years old caused by low whole grain intake increased by 2.03% year by year, with men increasing by 2.61% year by year, and women increasing by 1.24% year by year (all P<0.001). From 1990 to 2019, the disease burden of colorectal cancer in China was higher than that of countries with middle, low-middle, and low SDI, but lower than the global average, and high and middle-high SDI countries or regions. The growth rate in China was higher than the above regions (China 1.86% vs. global -0.25%, high SDI -0.88%, middle-high SDI -0.09%, middle SDI 1.53%, low-middle SDI 1.12%, and low SDI 0.63%). Conclusion Based on the current situation and trend of colorectal cancer disease burden of residents over 70 years of age in the world and China, precise health management of unhealthy lifestyles of high-risk populations will help to achieve the goals of healthy aging and healthy China 2030.
ABSTRACT
Background Occupational pneumoconiosis is the most common occupational disease in Qinghai Province and China. From the perspective of public health, it is important to assess the disease burden using disability-adjusted life years (DALY) and economic losses. Objective To evaluate the disease burden of occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province, and to provide a basis for the formulation and implementation of relevant prevention and control strategies. Methods Based on the registered data, a database of occupational pneumoconiosis cases confirmed and reported in Qinghai Province was established. The survival status and death dateof occupational pneumoconiosis patients from 2015 to 2019 were confirmed by on-site visit, telephone survey, matching search of Death Information Registration and Management System, and consulting other departments. The life loss due to occupational pneumoconiosis from 2015 to 2019 was assessed using DALY as an indicator and data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 (GBD 2019) study. Inpatients with officially diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis from a hospital in Qinghai Province in 2019 were selected as study subjects, the direct economic loss was evaluated with hospitalization expenses, and the indirect economic loss due to occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province in 2019 was calculated by human capital approach. Results From 2015 to 2019, 505 new cases of occupational pneumoconiosis were reported in Qinghai Province, and there were 348 death cases. Prevalent cases and years lost due to disability (YLD) due to occupational pneumoconiosis were increased, while DALY and years of life lost (YLL) due to occupational pneumoconiosis decreased firstly and then increased. In each year, there were 87% or more of the DALY, YLL, or YLD attributed to silicosis and coal workers' pneumoconiosis. In 2019, the occupational pneumoconiosis-associated DALY was 2173.55 person years. The total hospitalization expense incurred by 42 inpatients with occupational pneumoconiosis was 1256345.19 yuan. The total hospitalization expense and average daily cost of the inpatients with stageⅡand Ⅲ pneumoconiosis were higher than that of the inpatients with stageⅠ (P<0.05), and the hospitalization expense was higher in the ≥60 years age group than in the <60 years age group (P<0.05). In 2019, the indirect economic burden incurred by occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province was 44108581.65 yuan, and accounted for 0.15‰ of the gross domestic product (GDP) of the province. Conclusion The disease burden associated with occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province are outstanding. Silicosis and coal workers' pneumoconiosis are the key contributors. Targeted intervention measures including dust hazard control, enterprise management, follow-up and rehabilitation management of pneumoconiosis should be taken to prevent and control the occurrence and progression of pneumoconiosis and alleviate disease burden of pneumoconiosis.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES@#Stroke has become the leading cause of death and disability among adults in China. This study aims to analyze the disease burden based on gender and age and the risk factors for stroke subtypes in China 2019, and to provide reference for targeted stroke prevention and control.@*METHODS@#Based on 2019 data of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD), the gender and age in patients with different stroke subtypes (ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage) in China 2019 was described by using disability-adjusted life years (DALY), and attributable burden of related risk factors was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#In 2019, the burden of intracranial hemorrhage was the heaviest one in China, resulting in 22.210 6 million person years of DALY, following by ischemic stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage, resulting in 21.393 9 and 2.344 7 million person years of DALY, respectively. Among them, except the 0-14 age group, the disease burden of different subtypes of stroke in men was higher than that in women. The disease burden of ischemic stroke was increased with age in both men and women, with the heaviest disease burden in ≥70 years group. The disease burden of intracranial hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage was the heaviest in males aged 50-69 years old, and in females aged ≥70 years and 50-69 years, respectively. Metabolic factors were the main risk factors in all ages of different stroke subtypes, and the most important risk factor was high systolic blood pressure. Other risk factors were different between men and women. Smoking, high body mass index, high low-density lipoprotein, and outdoor particulate matter pollution were the main risk factors for stroke in men, while high body mass index, outdoor particulate matter pollution, and high fasting blood glucose were the main risk factors of stroke in women. The main risk were different among different age groups.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The burden and attributable risk factors for different stroke subtypes are discrepancy in different gender and age groups. Targeted interventions should be conducted in the future to reduce the burden of stroke.
