Abstract Background As population aging intensifies, it becomes increasingly important to elucidate the casual relationship between and changes in health. Therefore, our study proposed develop a systematic attribution framework comprehensively evaluate health impacts of aging. Methods We used health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) measure quality disability-adjusted years (DALY) quantify burden disease for Guangzhou. The HALE DALY projections were generated using both Bayesian...
The epidemiology of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has yet to be investigated using the symptomatic threshold criteria recommended by Montreal Definition. This study aimed determine prevalence symptom-defined GERD across five regions China, and investigate variables associated with GERD.A representative sample 18 000 adults (aged 18-80 years) were selected equally from rural urban areas in each region (n = 1800). According Definition, is present when mild symptoms heartburn and/or...
Evidence of the potential causal effect PM2.5 and its constituents on all-cause mortality based large population cohort is still limited. Based a scale 341,098 participants in southern China, we developed marginal structure Cox model inverse probability weighting, an established inference approach, to evaluate associations between mortality, taking into account time-varying covariates. Additionally, further explored modifying effects demographic lifestyle characteristics these associations....
The potential for residential greenness to improve cardiovascular health through both physical and psychological mechanisms is well recognized. However, evidence from rapidly urbanizing developing countries cohort-based causal inference approaches, remains limited. We aim examine the effect of time mortality in South China. utilized data a community-based population survey involving 748,209 participants at baseline 2009 2015, followed up until 2020. Residential exposure was assessed by...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) self-testing serves as a crucial strategy for overcoming testing barriers, with urine-based emerging potential novel approach. In real-world setting, this study demonstrated that the urine rapid test exhibited lower diagnostic accuracy compared to blood test. Study participants expressed stronger preferences HIV methods utilizing finger prick samples, accompanied by standard written instructions and costs. Our findings indicate requires additional...
The association between lifestyle and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has been well documented. However, evidence is still limited from vulnerable populations, especially middle-aged elderly adults with comorbid hypertension diabetes, who are at higher risk of developing MASLD than the general population. We aimed to examine potential causal links a healthy in this A total 41,964 participants diabetes were included longitudinal cohort 2010 2023. Weighted...
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a prevalent malignant tumor in East Asia, particularly impacting China. The association between multiple constituents of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and the survival time NPC patients remains unclear, which poses challenge for targeted public health interventions. An accelerated failure-time model with 12-year cohort design was used to analyze impact long-term PM2.5 its on 1492 patients. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) functions stratification analyses...
Study objective Investing in health to improve healthy life expectancy (HLE) is fundamental create a demographic dividend. However, how dramatic population ageing affects HLE remains unknown. This study aims quantify and project the major diseases injuries attributed changes size age structure that contributed substantial losses HLE. Methods Using data from 188 countries Global Burden of Disease 2021 World Population Prospects 2024, we assessed correlation between total dependency ratios....
ABSTRACT Objective To analyse temporal trends, inequalities and projections in anaemia burden among women of childbearing age (WCBA). Design Population‐based study. Setting Data from the Global Disease (GBD) Study. Population WCBA (ages 15–49) diagnosed with anaemia. Methods According to GBD study, original data sources, including population‐based surveys, scientific studies government reports, were synthesised estimate prevalence years lived disability (YLD). We extracted annual estimates...
Abstract Background Symptom-based surveys suggest that the prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases is lower in China than Western countries. The aim this study was to validate a methodology for epidemiological investigation symptoms and endoscopic findings China. Methods A randomized, stratified, multi-stage sampling used select 18 000 adults aged 18-80 years from Shanghai, Beijing, Xi'an, Wuhan Guangzhou. Participants Shanghai were invited provide blood samples undergo upper endoscopy. All...
Abstract Background China has one of the highest hepatitis B virus (HBV) disease burdens worldwide and tracking progress toward 2030 HBV elimination targets is essential. This study aimed to assess impact biomedical interventions (i.e., adult vaccination, screening treatment) on epidemic, estimate time for elimination, evaluate cost-effectiveness in China. Methods A deterministic compartmental model was developed project epidemic from 2022 2050 meet under four intervention scenarios....

Residential greenness may influence COPD mortality, but the causal links, risk trajectories, and mediation pathways between them remain poorly understood. We aim to comprehensively identify potential characterize dynamic progression of hospitalization or posthospital risk, quantify effects COPD. This study was conducted using a community-based cohort enrolling individuals aged ≥ 18 years in southern China from January 1, 2009 December 31, 2015. Greenness characterized by normalized...
Abstract Background The performance evaluation of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is crucial enhancing quality public health services. With ongoing reform CDC system in China, existing faces challenges. This study used Delphi method to develop a new China’s provincial, city, county-level CDC. Methods Following “Structure-Process-Outcome” model, assessment indicators were systematically collected. Indicators modified screened through two rounds based on responsibilities,...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/AIDS among elderly persons presents a new public health challenge in China. We aimed to explore historical trends (2004-2018) and project the future (2019-2030) burden of HIV/AIDS incidence mortality utilized data from Data Center China Public Health Science database on mortality, employing Bayesian age-period-cohort model reveal effect burden, projecting rates up 2030. From 2004 2018, increased 0.56 20.78 per 100 000 for men 0.28 7.84 women. The also both...
