Abstract:
Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of lung cancer death in Gansu Province, and to provide a theoretical basis for formulating the prevention and control measures of lung cancer. Methods The lung cancer death data from national monitoring sites in Gansu Province from 2014 to 2023 were selected. Excel2013 and SPSS17.0 were used to calculate lung cancer mortality, standardized mortality, potential years of life lost (PYLL), potential years of life lost rate, standardized potential years of life lost rate, and average years of life lost (AYLL). The annual percent change (APC) of the crude lung cancer mortality rate and standardized mortality rate was calculated using Joinpiont 4.8.0.1 software. The mortality difference decomposition method was used to analyze demographic and non-demographic factors. Results From 2014 to 2023, the crude mortality rate of lung cancer among the residents of the monitoring sites in Gansu Province showed an increasing trend. The mortality rate of males was higher than that of females. The mortality rate in urban areas was higher than that in rural areas. The population structure was the main factor leading to the increase of lung cancer mortality rate in urban areas, while other non-demographic factors were the main factors leading to the increase of lung cancer mortality rate in rural areas. The crude lung cancer mortality rate was low at the age of < 30, and then the mortality rate increased with age. Lung cancer PYLL was higher in males than in females, and AYLL was higher in females than in males. Conclusion The mortality rate of lung cancer in the monitoring sites in Gansu Province is on the rise. The urban areas and male population are the key areas and groups for intervention. It is suggested to further strengthen the early screening and intervention of lung cancer to reduce the mortality rate of lung cancer.
