Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the burden of disease attributable to low fruit intake among Chinese population aged ≥15 years old between 1990 and 2013.
Methods:We used data from the 2013 Global Burden of Disease Burden of Disease Study to study the situation in China. The population attributable fraction was calculated to estimate and compare the death and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) attributed to low fruit intake between 1990 and 2013 in China (excluded Taiwan, China). An average world population age structure of the period 2000-2025 was adopted to calculate age-standardized rates.
Results:Deaths attributable to low fruit intake accounted for 11.02% of all death in 2013, which were higher than it in 1990 (10.38%). In 2013, the number of deaths attributed to low fruit intake in China increased to 1 046 500 from 793 800 in 1990. From 1990-2013, the age-standardized death rate attributable to low fruit intake decreased from 113.04/100 000 to 79.80/100 000. DALYs caused by low fruit intake increased from 18.346 5 million in 1990 to 21.296 7 million in 2013. Compared with 1990, the age-standardized DALY rate attributed to low fruit intake decreased by 34.67%. In 2013, the top three provinces with the highest burden of disease attributed to low fruits intake were Tibet, Guizhou and Xinjiang provinces, with standardized DALY rate at 2 612.53/100 000, 2 281.85/100 000 and 2 198.22/100 000, respectively. Compared with the results in 1990, the standardized DALY attributed to low fruits intake decreased, especially in Tianjin, where decreased by 63.61%; followed by Aomen, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Beijing, where decreased by 59.74%, 59.53%, 56.64% and 53.88%, respectively.
Conclusion:Compared with the situation in 1990, the burden of disease attributable to low fruit intake decreased in 2013, but the situation is still serious, especially in Tibet, Guizhou and Xinjiang provinces, where the burden decreased comparatively slowly.
