Death trends and potential life loss of lung cancer in 5 counties(districts)in the Huaihe River Basin of Anhui Province from 2009 to 2022
Objective To analyze the mortality trend and potential life loss of lung cancer in Huaihe River Basin of Anhui Province from 2009 to 2022,and to grasp the death trend and life loss of lung cancer in this region,so as to provide basic data for the prevention and treatment of lung cancer.Methods The cause of death monitoring data and resident population data of Huaihe River Basin in Anhui province from 2009 to 2022 were analyzed.The crude mortality rate of lung cancer,standardized mortality rate of Chinese population,potential years of life lost(PYLL),potential years of life lost rate(PYL-LR),standardized potential years of life lost rate(SPYLLR),other indicators and their average annual change percentage(AAPC)were analyzed.Results From 2009 to 2022,there were 29 438 lung cancer deaths in Huaihe Project area of An-hui province,the crude mortality rate of lung cancer was 38.97/100 000,the standardized mortality rate was 33.77/100 000,accounting for 27.32%of all malignant tumor deaths.The proportion of death before 70 years old was 40.95%,PYLL was 17 291.89 person-years,SPYLLR was 3.35%o.From 2009 to 2022,the crude mortality rate(AAPC=3.060%,P<0.001)and proportion(AAPC=2.197,P<0.001)of lung cancer in Huaihe Project area of Anhui Province showed an increasing trend,the standardized mortality rate showed a downward trend(AAPC=-0.853%,P=0.029),and the mortality rate before 70 years old showed a downward trend(AAPC=-1.928%,P<0.001).Conclusion The standardized mortality rate of lung cancer showed a decreasing trend but was not obvious.It is necessary to improve the environment,strengthen the health education and promote the early diagnosis of lung cancer.
