Objective:To analyze change trend of disease burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) mortality between 2012 and 2023 in Chongqing, and provide suggestion for CKD prevention.Methods:The mortality data of CKD were collected from Chongqing death registration between 2012 and 2023 according to International Classification of Diseases 10 th. The data were analyzed to calculate mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, age specific mortality rate, and the rate of years of life lost (YLL) and proportion by using software SPSS 26.0. The mortality rate of CKD between men and women, urban area and rural area were compared by χ2 test. The change trend was described by average annual percent of change (AAPC). Results:The mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD were 7.94/100 000 and 4.63/100 000 respectively in 2012 and 6.70/100 000 and 2.79/100 000 respectively in 2023 in Chongqing. The difference in change of CKD mortality rate was not significant (AAPC=-0.79%, t=-1.60, P=0.273). However, the standardized mortality rate of CKD decreased by 3.59% ( t=-3.98, P=0.003) from 2012 to 2023. The mortality rate of CKD was higher in men than in women in 2014 and 2022, the differences were significant (all P<0.05). The standardized mortality rate of CKD in men and women decreased by 3.17% and 4.11% respectively between 2012 and 2023, the difference was significant (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of CKD had been higher in urban area than in rural area since 2016 (all P<0.05). During this period, the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in urban area remained stable, but the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in rural area showed average annual decreases of 2.21% and 4.90%, the differences were significant (all P<0.05). The proportion of CKD due to hypertension decreased, but the proportion of CKD due to diabetes and other causes increased. The rate of age standardized YLL of CKD showed an average annual decrease of 2.83%, the differences were significant ( P=0.011). Conclusions:The standardized mortality rate and age standardized YLL of CKD decreased from 2012 to 2023 in Chongqing. Men, urban residents and the elderly are key populations in CKD prevention.

Objective To analyze the trends of suicide mortality and disease burden among the elderly aged 60 and above in Chongqing from 2012 to 2023,providing evidence for targeted interventions.Methods Death cases of elderly aged 60 and above were extracted from death registration between 2012 and 2023 according to death records(International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems,10th version:X60-X84,Y87).The data were analyzed to calculate indicators such as the mortality rate,standardized mortality rate,years of life lost(YLL)rate,and average years of life lost(AYLL),and the composition ratio of different causes of death with using Excel 2010 and SPSS 26.0.The comparison of mortality rates between male and female,urban and rural area was conducted using the x2 test.The trend changes of the rates were expressed by the annual percentage change(APC)and the average annual percentage change(AAPC).Results From 2012 to 2023,the suicide mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of the elderly aged 60 and above generally showed a downward trend,decreasing by 3.54%and 4.02%,respectively(P<0.05).From 2012 to 2016,the suicide mortality rate increased by an average of 4.53%per year,and from 2016 to 2021,it decreased by an average of 8.91%per year,and both trends were significant(P<0.05).Only in 2020 and 2022,the male suicide mortality rate was significantly higher than that of females(P<0.05).From 2012 to 2023,the suicide mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of males and females decreased by an average of 2.86%,3.44%,4.21%,and 4.69%per year respectively,and the trends were significant(P<0.05).The suicide mortality rate of the elderly aged 60 and above in rural areas was significantly higher than that in urban areas over the years(P<0.05).From 2012 to 2023,the suicide mortality rate and standardized mortality rate in urban areas remained relatively stable(P>0.05),while the suicide mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of the elderly aged 60 and above in rural areas decreased by an average of 3.44%and 4.02%per year respectively,and the trends were significant(P<0.05).The YLL rate and AYLL caused by suicide among the elderly aged 60 and above decreased from 3.03‰ and 18.54 years in 2012 to 2.26‰ and 17.50 years in 2023 respectively,and the AAPC were-4.02%and-0.60%respectively,and the trends were significant(P<0.05).By comparing the composition of deaths by different suicide methods over the years,it was found that the proportion of deaths due to pesticide poisoning showed a downward trend,while the proportions of deaths by hanging,jumping from a height,and drowning showed an upward trend.Conclusion The suicide mortality rate of the elderly aged 60 and above in Chongqing is relatively high.Although demonstrating an overall downward trend,enhanced efforts toward early identification and intervention for elderly suicide should be enhanced.

Stresses induced by the deficiency or excess of trace mineral elements, such as manganese (Mn), represent a common limiting factor for the production of crops like Brassica napus. To identify key genes involved in Mn allocation in B. napus and elucidate the underlying mechanisms, a member of the metal tolerance protein (MTP) family obtained in the previous screening of cDNA library of B. napus under Mn stress was selected as the research subject. Based on the sequence information and phylogenetic analysis, it was named as BnMTP10. It belongs to the Mn-cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) subfamily. Expression of BnMTP10 in yeast significantly improved the tolerance of transformants to excessive Mn and iron (Fe) and reduced the accumulation of Mn and Fe. However, the yeast transformants exhibited no significant changes in tolerance to excess cadmium, boron, aluminum, zinc, or copper. The qRT-PCR results demonstrated that the flowers of B. napus had the highest expression of BnMTP10, followed by roots and leaves. Subcellular localization studies revealed that BnMTP10 was localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Compared with wild-type plants, transgenic Arabidopsis overexpressing BnMTP10 exhibited enhanced tolerance to excessive Mn stress but showed no significant difference under Fe stress. Correspondingly, under excessive Mn stress, the Mn content in the roots of transgenic Arabidopsis increased significantly. However, under excessive Fe stress, the Fe content in transgenic Arabidopsis did not alter significantly. According to the results, we hypothesize that BnMTP10 may alleviate excessive Mn stress in plants by mediating Mn transport to the ER. This study facilitated our understanding of efficient mineral nutrients, and provided theoretical foundations and gene resources for breeding B. napus.
