ObjectiveIn order to improve the prevention and treatment of bronchial asthma, the prevalence and risk factors of asthma in Chengdu among residents over 14 years old were investigated.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in Chengdu. The inhabitants (age > 14 years) recruited in this household questionnaire survey were through multi-stage cluster random sampling. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of asthma.ResultsA total of 3 477 subjects were finally recruited in this study. Of them, 131 were asthmatic patients; and the prevalence rate was 3.8%. There were significant differences observed in the prevalence of asthma among people of different ages, residences, occupations and educational levels (χ2=191.084, P<0.05; χ2=9.114, P<0.05; χ2=114.268, P<0.05; χ2=62.123, P<0.05). Univariate regression analysis showed that the risk factors of asthma included five factors (measles, chickenpox, pneumonia, tracheobronchitis and intestinal parasitic diseases) related to childhood illness, and two factors (asthma and chronic bronchitis) related to the first-degree relatives (P<0.05). In addition, active smoking history was a risk factor for asthma in men (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression indicated that measles, pneumonia, tracheobronchitis, intestinal parasitic diseases in childhood and first-degree relatives suffering from asthma were independent risk factors for asthma.ConclusionsThis study describes the epidemiological characteristics of asthma in Chengdu among adolescents (age>14 years) and adults. The history of measles, pneumonia, tracheobronchitis, and intestinal parasitic diseases in childhood, and first-degree relatives suffering from asthma are the independent risk factors for asthma. In addition, active smoking history is a risk factor for asthma in men.

ObjectivesTo systematically review the prevalence of rosacea in China.MethodsPubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect literature of the prevalence of rosacea in China from inception to September 5th, 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and then meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 12.0 software.ResultsA total of 54 studies were included. The pooled prevalence of rosacea from 44 population-based or community-based studies was 0.27% (95%CI 0.22 to 0.32) and from 10 hospital-based studies was 1.47% (95%CI 1.08 to 1.86). Based on population-based or community-based studies, the highest prevalence was in the early 1980s (2.19%), followed by a gradual decline, to the lowest (0.17%) in the early 1990s, after that the prevalence increased to 1.24% till 2015. Based on hospital-based studies, the prevalence had a maximum of 4.64% in the past decade. The Northwest China and North China had higher prevalence of rosacea (population-based or community-based studies: 1.24% in Northwest China, 1.1% in North China; hospital-based studies: 6.03% in Northwest China, 2.83% in North China). The prevalence in East China and South China was relatively low (population-based or community-based studies: 0.02% in East China and 0.32% in South China; Hospital-based studies: 0.28% in South China). The prevalence of rosacea in female (0.36%) was higher than that of male (0.19%) in population-based or community-based studies.ConclusionsIn China, the pooled prevalence of rosacea is 0.27% in population-based or community-based studies and 1.47% in hospital-based studies. Rosacea is common in North China and Northwest China. Female has higher prevalence than male.
Objective To estimate the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among Chinese acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients by meta-analysis and to provide references for the management of AMI patients. Methods We searched databases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library (Issue 6, 2016), CNKI, CBM, WanFang Data and VIP from January 2000 to July 2016, to collect literature regarding the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among patients with AMI. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the methodological quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed by using Comprehensive Meta Analysis (CMA) 2.0 software. Results Totally, 22 cross-sectional studies were included, involving 2 986 AMI patients, of which1 239 were post-myocardial infarction depression patients. The overall incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression among the AMI patients was 42.7% (95%CI 36.3% to 49.4%). There was no statistical differences observed when the studies were stratified by sex, regions, scales and years (allP values>0.05). Conclusion In China, the incidence of post-myocardial infarction depression is high and rising year by year roughly among AMI patients. The status should be paid more attention.
Objective To study the prevalence and risk factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) and provide reliable data for COPD prevention and management. Methods By cluster-random-sampling survey, the residents aged 40 yrs or older in a community in South Bank District of Chongqing were investigated.The post-bronchodilator FEV1 /FVC lt; 0. 7 was defined as COPD. Those individuals with FEV1 /FVC lower than 0. 7 would received history inquiry, X-ray of chest and ECG to exclude other disease that could impair pulmonary function. Results 1518 residents were enrolled( 517 male and 1001 female) . The prevalence of COPD was 12. 78% ( male 23. 02% and female 7. 49% ) . The major risk factors were cigarettes smoke( OR: 2. 88, 95% CI:2. 118-3. 928) and indoor cooking smoke( OR: 1. 98, 95% CI: 1. 685-3. 317) . There were 22.06% smokers were diagnosed as COPD. Only 9. 30% patients had known themselves disease condition about chronic bronchitis,emphysema or COPD. Conclusion The prevalence of COPD in Chongqing city is significant higher than average level of the whole country and the patients have poor knowledge about the disease.
Objective The aim of this study was to describe the trends in the burden of breast cancer in women of all ages in China from 1990 to 2021, compare it with the global burden of breast cancer in women, and predict the burden of disease in the next 15 years. Methods Based on the open data of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) in 2021, the incidence, prevalence, mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of breast cancer among women in China and the world were analyzed. Joinpoint was used to calculate annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) to reflect the changing trend of disease burden. An autoregressive composite moving average (ARIMA) model was used to predict the disease burden of breast cancer in women from 2022 to 2036. Results From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized prevalence rate (ASPR) of female breast cancer in China showed an increasing trend, with an average annual increase of 2.400 7% and 2.334 8%, respectively, and the age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized DALYs rate (ASDR) showed a decreasing trend. The average annual decline was 0.290 0% and 0.198 3%, respectively. Meanwhile, ASIR and ASPR of global female breast cancer also showed an increasing trend, with an average annual increase of 0.474 9% and 0.3445 2% respectively, while ASMR and ASDR showed a decreasing trend, with an average annual decrease of 0.425 2% and 0.321 8% respectively. Among them, there were differences in the impact of age on the burden of female breast cancer. The peak of ASIR and ASPR appeared in the age group of 50 to 69 years old, and generally increased with the increase of age, and then decreased when reaching the peak. ASMR and ASDR increased with age. In the following 15 years, the prevalence of breast cancer in women in China and globally showed an increasing trend, while the mortality rate showed a decreasing trend. Conclusion From the analysis of the disease burden from 1990 to 2021, breast cancer has a huge harm to women, and the incidence of young and middle-aged women is high, the death rate of middle-aged and elderly women is high, and the disease time is long, which brings a heavy psychological and economic burden to patients and society. From the trend forecast for the next 15 years, the prevalence of breast cancer in women in China and the world will increase, while the mortality rate will decrease slightly, but the decrease is not large, which will bring huge public health challenges and put higher requirements on the prevention and control of the disease. To reduce the disease burden of breast cancer, comprehensive strategies for disease control are needed, including prevention of risk factors at the primary care level, screening of at-risk populations, and quality medical services.
ObjectiveTo investigate and analysis the data of patients with hepatic echinococcosis in Ganzi County in 2018, and to understand the epidemiological characteristics of hepatic echinococcosis in Ganzi County, Sichuan Province.MethodsA total of 811 patients were enrolled. The basic information of sex, age, weight, occupation, nation, educational level, family address and so on were recorded. The location, number, classification, transverse diameter and longitudinal diameter of hepatic echinococcosis masses were recorded by abdominal color Doppler ultrasonography.ResultsIn 2018, 811 new cases of hepatic echinococcosis were reported in Ganzi County, with a prevalence rate of 4.6% (811/17 650), and 17.81% (572/3 212) in the Datongma area. Patients ranged in age from 6 to 92, the average age was (44.8±16.6) years old. The majority of patients were Tibetans (98.5%), herdsmen (71.8%) and illiterates (83.5%). The most common lesions were in right liver (84.2%) and single (91.4%).ConclusionsThere is serious transmission of hepatic echinococcosis in Ganzi County, especially in pure pastoral areas, and HAE is more prevalent than HCE. Most of the infected people are Tibetan herdsmen with illiterate educational background and more females than males. The peak incidence of hepatic echinococcosis is 30-55 years old. Close monitoring should be carried out for these people.
