摘要
Background:Evaluating the impact of digestive system diseases is vital for devising effective prevention strategies.However,comprehensive reports on the burden of digestive system diseases in China are lacking.Our study aimed to provide an overview of the burden and trends of digestive system diseases from 1990 to 2019 in China and its provinces.Methods:This cross-sectional study utilized the Global Disease Burden Study 2019 to estimate the incidence,mortality rate,disability-adjusted life years(DALYs),years of life disability,years of life lost,and changes in the burden of digestive diseases across Chinese provinces from 1990 to 2019.The analysis of disease burden primarily examines the characteristics of sub-disease distribution,time trends,age distribution,and sex distribution.Additionally,we compared provincial age-standardized DALYs for digestive diseases with the expected rates based on the socio-demographic index(SDI).Results:In 2019,there were 499.2 million cases of digestive system diseases in China,resulting in 1,557,310 deaths.Stomach cancer,colon and rectal cancer,and esophageal cancer are the top three diseases associated with mortality and DALY related to digestive system diseases.Meanwhile,cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases,gastroesophageal reflux disease,and gallbladder and biliary diseases are the top three kinds of diseases with the highest prevalence among digestive system diseases.The risk of gastric cancer sharply increases among men after the age of 40 years,leading to a significant disparity in burden between men and women.As the SDI increased,the DALYs associated with digestive system diseases in China and its provinces showed a downward trend.Conclusion:Our study highlights the inverse correlation between DALYs associated with digestive system diseases and the SDI.
