Abstract:
Objective To analyze and compare the disease burden of high BMI in Kunshan City in different periods, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of overweight and obesity in Kunshan City. Methods Using the global burden of disease research method, the number of deaths attributable to high BMI and attributable YLL in Kunshan City were calculated using the survey data of chronic diseases and their risk factors and the data of the death registration system in Kunshan City. Results In 2023, R5.46% of deaths in Kunshan City were attributed to high BMI, with 345 attributable deaths, and attributable mortality rate and standardized attributable mortality rate were 39.16/100 000 and 33.82/100 000, Rrespectively. Attributable YLL rate and standardized attributable YLL rate were 692.35/100 000 and 604.46/100 000, respectively. High BMI caused a loss of 0.52 years of life expectancy per capita. Compared with 2012, PAF, standardized attributable mortality rate, standardized attributable YLL rate and life expectancy loss per capita of high BMI in 2023 increased by 121.95%, 100.71%, 57.05%, and 100%, respectively. Among different genders, PAF increased by 91.05% for males and 161.97% for females from 2012 to 2023. Among different diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and cancers had the highest attributable disease burden, while diabetes, chronic kidney disease and Alzheimer's disease all had a significant increase. Conclusion The burden of disease attributable to high BMI has risen dramatically in Kunshan City, and the adverse health effects of overweight and obesity need to be reduced through scientific weight loss and comprehensive practical measures.
