Objective :
To investigate the mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and to examine the effects on life expectancy among residents in Yuhang District of Hangzhou City from 2010 to 2020, so as to provide insights into the management of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Methods:
The mortality surveillance data of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases of registered residents in Yuhang District from 2010 to 2020 were collected from Zhejiang All-cause Death Surveillance System. The crude mortality, standardized mortality, annual percent change ( APC ), Fulfillment index, life expectancy, cause-eliminated life expectancy and years of life lost, and the mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and the impact on life expectancy were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 21 761 deaths occurred due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in Yuhang District from 2010 to 2020, and the annual average crude and standardized mortality rates of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were 206.14/105 and 129.62/105, respectively. The annual crude and standardized mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases both appeared a tendency towards a decline from 2010 to 2020, with APC of -3.63% and -5.45%, respectively ( P<0.05 ), and the Fulfillment index showed a tendency towards a reduction in residents at ages of 50 to 79 years ( P<0.05 ). The mean life expectancy and cause-eliminated life expectancy were 82.71 and 88.39 years in Yuhang District from 2010 to 2020, which both appeared a tendency towards a rise, both with APC of 0.50% ( P<0.05 ). The years of life lost were 5.02 to 6.47 years due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the life loss rates were 6.00% to 7.73%.
Conclusions
The mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases appeared a tendency towards a decline decreased and the cause-eliminated life expectancy appeared a tendency towards a rise in Yuhang District from 2010 to 2020. Intensifying the management of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases death may increase the life expectancy.

Objective To discuss the complications of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treatment of osteoporotic compression fractures (OVCFs) of the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae,and to investigate their causes and prevention.Methods From Jan.2004 to Dec.2012,PKP or PKP combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) was performed on 126 vertebrae in 112 thoracolumbar OVCFs patients.There were 21 males and 91 females.The average age was 69 years (ranging from 36 to 85).100 cases had single vertebra,10 cases had double vertebrae,and 2 cases had 3 vertebrae.The injured segments were identified by MRI before surgery,and the fractures of the vertebrae were observed clearly by X ray and CT scan.The causes of the complications were retrospective analyzed.Results Perioperative complication happened in 68 cases (54%).The leakage of the bone cement happened in 66 cases (52.4%):one of them had high fever after the leakage happened behind the post-wall of the vertebra body,and it disappeared after one week with the relevant treatment.There was no injury of the nerve.Most of the leakage happened in front of the vertebra body,few happened in the terminal plate,and few happened behind the vertebral plate.There was no pulmonary embolism.Toxic reaction of the bone cement wasn't found in this team.There was no artery or nerve injury.One temporary spinal cord injury happened,one case was punctured in a wrong vertebra,and balloon rupture happened in one case.One case didn't achieve pain release.No infection happened.Conclusion The bone cement leakage was the most common complication associated with PKP in treatment of OVCFs.The complication rate can be reduced if the operation indications are strict,the volume of the filling cementis is well controlled,and the operation is performed in experienced hands.
