Objective: To analyze the trend change of the drowning mortality among children and adolescents in Chongqing, 2012-2021, and to provide suggestion for drowning prevention and control. Methods: Drowning death cases (ICD-10:W65.0-W74.9) among children and adolescents in Chongqing from 2012 to 2021 were derived from Chongqing death registration system. The difference of the drowning mortality between male and female, urban and rural area were compared by Chi square test. The trend change of the drowning mortality between 2012 and 2021 was analyzed by annual percent change( APC ). Results: The mortality and ASMR of drowning among children and adolescents decreased from 9.57/10 5, 9.42/10 5 in 2012 to 2.80/10 5, 2.83/10 5 in 2021 significantly( t=10.93, 10.52, P <0.01). And its APC were -13.15% and 13.06% respectively. The drowning mortality in male was higher than that in female( P <0.05). The drowning mortality in rural area was higher than that in urban area( P <0.05). The mortality of drowning among children aged between 0 and 4 years old, 5 and 9 years old, 10 and 14 years old decreased by 15.30 %,17.80% and 11.40%( APC =-15.30%, -17.80%, -11.40%, t=11.11, 9.22, 5.62, P <0.05). The proportion of drowning in natural water field among children and adolescents accounted for about 80%. Conclusion The mortality of drowning among children and adolescents in Chongqing decreases rapidly. Vulnerable population of drowning includes boys, rural children and adolescents, and children age of 0-14 years old. Comprehensive prevention for drowning should be carried out continuously.

Objective To understand the prevalence of osteoporosis and its influence factors in residents of Chongqing, and to provide the reference for osteoporosis prevention and treatment. Methods The data were from ^“An epidemiological survey of osteoporosis in Chongqing in 2018^”, and the multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 1885 subjects (≥20 years old) from 32 villages/neighborhood committee in 4 areas (countries) of Chongqing. The investigation was performed by questionnaire (sociodemographic factors, lifestyle factors, history of orthopedics) and the bone mineral density was measured by QDR 4 500A dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. The chi-square test and multi factor multi-variant logistic regression analysis were utilized to analyze the data, the used software was SPSS 25.0. Results The morbidities of osteoporosis and osteopenia in residents (>20 years old) of Chongqing in China were 12.99% and 48.70%, respectively. The osteoporosis morbidity (19.08%) in females was significantly higher than that (4.42%) in males, and increased with age. The multi-variant logistic regression indicated that women (OR=6.10, 95% CI:4.08-9.14), the past medical history of fracture (OR=1.79, 95%CI:1.18-2.73) and age (OR=16.80, 95% CI:9.19-30.77) were risk factors for osteoporosis; milk intake (OR=0.65, 95%CI:0.47-0.89), overweight (OR=0.51, 95%CI:0.36-0.93)and obesity (OR=0.30, 95%CI:0.19-0.47), as compared with ≤primary school group, junior high school group (OR=0.57, 95%CI:0.39-0.82);≥high school group (0.40, 95%CI:0.26-0.61) were considered to be protective factors for osteoporosis. Conclusion The prevalence of osteoporosis among residents with age above 50 years old of Chongqing was very high. Health education and behavior intervention should be focused on the elderly or female residents to promote the formulation of healthy lifestyle.

Objective To analyze the awareness rate and treatment and control rate of hypertension as well as the related influencing factors among residents aged 35-75 years in Chongqing, and to provide a reference for comprehensive prevention and control of hypertension. Methods Residents between the ages of 35 and 75 years old were recruited from 8 sites of China Patient-centered Evaluative Assessment of Cardiac Events in Chongqing. All participants were interviewed with structured questionnaires, and physical examination, glucose test and lipid test were performed. The data were analyzed by SPSS 25.0. The differences in the rates of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension of different populations were compared by chi-square test. The related factors influencing the rates of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension were identified by step backward bivariate multivariate logistic regression model. Results A total of 101 036 cases were recruited into this study. The prevalence rates of dyslipidemia, hypertension and diabetes were 31.48%, 40.80% and 17.16%, respectively. The age standardized prevalence rates of dyslipidemia, hypertension and diabetes were 30.81%, 33.91% and 14.35%, respectively. The rates of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension were 45.65%, 36.03% and 11.60%, respectively. The result of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that factors including age, household registration, occupation, alcohol use, smoking status, body weight, central obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia were related to the awareness rate of hypertension. Factors including age, household registration, race, household income, alcohol use, body weight, central obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia were related to the treatment rate of hypertension. Factors including age, household registration, household income, alcohol use, central obesity and diabetes were related to the rate of blood pressure control. Conclusion The prevalence of hypertension was high in Chongqing, but the rate of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension was low. It is suggested that comprehensive measures should be implemented to raise the rate of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension for the prevention and control of hypertension.

SPSS 25.0 was used to calculate the incidence, age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), mortality, age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and proportion of stroke. The incidence and mortality of stroke were compared by Chi-square test between males and females, and between central urban areas and suburban counties. Results In 2018, the incidence and ASIR of stroke were 294.61/105 and 222.43/105 in Chongqing, respectively. The mortality and ASMR of stroke were 116.34/105 and 85.81/105. The incidence, ASIR and proportion of ischemic stroke were 186.63/105, 139.17/105 and 63.35%, respectively. The incidence of ischemic stroke in male was higher than that in female (χ²=18.52, P<0.001). The incidence of ischemic stroke in central urban areas was higher than that in suburban counties (χ²=29.50, P<0.001). The mortality of ischemic stroke in male was higher than that in female (χ²=6.67, P=0.010). The mortality of ischemic stroke in suburban counties was higher than that in central urban areas (χ²=17.55, P<0.001). The incidence, ASIR and proportion of hemorrhagic stroke were 78.15/105, 60.44/105 and 26.53%, respectively. The incidence of hemorrhagic stroke in male was higher than that in female (χ²=27.64, P<0.001). The incidence of hemorrhagic stroke in suburban counties was higher than that in central urban areas (χ²=18.60, P<0.001). The mortality of hemorrhagic stroke was the highest among all subtypes of strokes. The mortality, ASMR and proportion of hemorrhagic stroke was 64.44/105, 48.28/105 and 55.39%, respectively. The mortality of hemorrhage stroke in male was higher than that in female (χ²=23.46, P<0.001). The mortality of hemorrhage stroke in suburban counties was higher than that in central urban areas (χ²= 43.57, P<0.001).

BACKGROUND: China has the largest elderly population in the world; little attention has been paid to the mental health of elderly in areas of extreme poverty. This is the first study to investigate the mental health of the rural elderly in poverty state counties in Chongqing and was part of the Chongqing 2018 health literacy promotion project. METHODS: In 2019, a cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate the mental health status of the rural elderly in fourteen poverty state counties of Chongqing, in which a total of 1400 elderly aged ≥ 65 years were interviewed, where mental health status was measured by the ten-item Kessler10 (K10) scale. Ordered multivariate logistic regression was performed to evaluate the influencing factors related to mental health of the elderly in these areas. RESULTS: The average score of K10 in 14 poverty state counties was 17.40 ± 6.31, 47.6% was labeled as good, 30.2% was moderate, 17.0% was poor, and lastly 5.1% was bad, and the mental health status of the elderly in the northeastern wing of Chongqing was better than the one in the southeastern wing of Chongqing. A worse self-rated health was the risk factor for mental health both in the northeastern and southeastern wings of Chongqing (all P < 0.001). Lower education level (OR (95% CI) = 1.45 (1.12-1.87), P = 0.004) was a risk factor in the northeastern wing, whereas older age (OR (95% CI) = 1.33 (1.13-1.56), P = 0.001) was a risk factors in the southeastern wing. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that mental health of the elderly in poverty state counties was poor, especially in the southeastern wing of Chongqing. Particular attention needs to be paid to the males who were less educated, older, and single; female with lower annual per capital income; and especially the elderly with poor self-rated health.

Objective To analyze the trend of the mortality and disease burden of drowning in Chongqing and provide suggestions for drowning prevention and control. Methods The information data on drowning deaths in Chongqing (ICD-10 code: W65-W74) from 2012 to 2018 were collected. SPSS 25.0 software was used to calculate and analyze indicators such as mortality, age standardized mortality rate by Chinese population (ASMRC), years of life lost with premature death (YLL_s), years lived with disability (YLD_s), and disability adjusted life years (DALY_s). The differences of drowning mortality between male and female, urban and rural areas were tested by Chi-square test. The trend of drowning mortality and disease burden was calculated as annual percent change (APC) using curve-estimation model of logistic regression. The difference of APC was tested by t-test (α=0.05). Results The mortality and ASMRC of drowning decreased from 4.90/100 000 and 4.87/100 000 in 2012 to 3.85/100 000 and 3.59/100 000 in 2018, respectively. The APCs were -3.34% and -4.49%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the change trend (t value: 2.34 and 2.42, P>0.05). The mortality of drowning in the male was higher than that in the female (P<0.05). The mortality of drowning in rural area was higher than that in urban area (P<0.05). The mortality of drowning among children under 5 years old was the highest. The mortality of drowning among children under 5 years old decreased from 14.47/100 000 in 2012 to 4.28/100 000 in 2018, and the APC was -17.06%. The change trend was statistically significant (t=8.86, P<0.001). The drowning mortality rate in the 65-year-old and older group increased from 8.14/100 000 in 2012 to 9.77/100 000 in 2018, with an APC of 4.92%. There was no significant difference in the trend of change (t=2.56, P=0.051). The rates of DALYs and YLLs decreased from 2.73 thousand person-years and 2.70 thousand person-years in 2012 to 1.66 thousand person-years and 1.64 thousand person-years in 2018, respectively. The APCs were -7.41% and -7.41%, respectively. All of these were statistically significant (P<0.05). The rate of YLDs decreased from 0.03 thousand person-years in 2012 to 0.02 thousand person-years in 2018. There was no significant difference in the trend of change (P>0.05). Conclusion The mortality and disease burden of drowning in Chongqing showed a decreasing trend, which was lower than the national average level. Children, male and elderly people are the vulnerable population to prevent drowning, and rural areas are the key areas to prevent drowning.

Objective To analyze the characteristics and changing trend of injury death among elderly residents aged 65 and above in Chongqing from 2013 to 2017, and to provide a basis for formulating intervention strategies for elderly injuries. Methods Based on monitoring data of death causes of permanent residents in Chongqing from 2013 to 2017, the injury death cases of elderly residents aged 65 and above were extracted, and the mortality rate and sequence were calculated. The standard mortality rate was calculated based on the standard population composition of the sixth national population census in 2010. The Joinpoint Regression Program 4.2 software was used to analyze the death trend. Results From 2013 to 2017, the average annual crude injury mortality rate of Chongqing residents aged 65 and above was 140.89/100 000, and the standardized mortality rate was 12.57/100 000. The crude death rate of male elderly residents was higher than that of female residents in the same year (P <0.001), and the injury mortality rate increased with the age of the elderly (P <0.001). The injury mortality rate of female and all elderly residents, and elderly residents in the 75- and 85-year-old groups showed an upward trend (P<0.05). Falls, road traffic injuries, suicide, other accidental injuries and drowning were the top five causes of injury death in Chongqing, accounting for 93.16% of the total injury deaths. In the past five years, the fall mortality of elderly residents in Chongqing showed an upward trend (P < 0.05). Falling was the first cause of injury death for elderly aged 70 and above in Chongqing. The crude rate of death of elderly residents aged 85 and over was 313.52 /100 000. Conclusion The injury mortality and fall mortality of elderly residents aged 65 and above in Chongqing showed a rising trend in the past five years. It is urgent to take measures to prevent injury and falls for seniors in Chongqing.

Objective: To analyze the premature death probability and cause-eliminated life expectancy of cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes in Chongqing residents in 2016 so as to provide recommendation for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) prevention and control in Chongqing. Methods: Death cases of Chongqing Municipality between January 1^st and December 31^st, 2016 were reported through death case registry system of national center for disease prevention and control. Death cases were sorted by international classification of disease (ICD-10). Mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, constituent ratio, premature death probability, life expectancy, and cause-eliminated life expectancy of four major NCDs were analyzed. Results: A total of 218 004 death cases were reported in Chongqing, 2016, and the mortality rate was 731.73/100 000. Of them, a total of 179 637 death cases of the four major NCDs including cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes were reported, accounting for 82.40% of all death cases. The mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of four major NCDs was 602.95/100 000 and 455.82/100 000, respectively. The premature death probability of four major NCDs was 15.96%, and males (25.39%) had a higher premature death probability than females (10.78%). The premature death probability of cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease, and diabetes were 6.01%, 8.32%, 2.05%, and 0.43%, respectively. Life expectancy would increase by 6.02, 3.19, 1.89, and 0.19 years, after eliminating cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes respectively. Conclusion The premature death probability of major NCDs was high in Chongqing, and males had a higher premature death probability than females did. Intervention and health management of the population should be conducted according to different gender-based risk factors to reduce the premature death probability.

Objective:To determine expression levels of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in patients with acute cerebral infarction and their clinical significance.Methods:A total of 80 patients with acute cerebral infarction in Chongqing Cancer Hospital from January 2014 to February 2016 were enrolled as an observation group.Another 80 healthy people served as a control group.The expression levels of UCH-L1 and GFAP in the 2 groups were detected.Results:Sensibility and specificity for UCH-L1 and GFAP were 75.0％,87.5％ and 81.3％,90.0％,respectively.Receiver operating characteristic curve areas of UCH-L1 and GFAP were 0.670 and 0.757,respectively.There were no significant significance in age,gender,drinking,smoke,diabetes,and hyperlipidemia in the 2 groups (P＞0.05).High blood pressure rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P＜0.05).Spearson/Pearson analysis showed that serum UCH-L1 and GFAP levels were positively correlated with hypertension,but they were negatively correlated with sex,age,diabetes,hyperlipidemia,alcohol consumption,smoking,and other factors.General data at different time in the observation group was not statistically different (P＞0.05).The expression levels of UCH-L1 and GFAP in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P＜0.05).UCH-L1 and GFAP levels at different time in the 2 groups were not statistically different (P＞0.05).UCH-L1 and GFAP levels in the light,medium,and heavy groups were higher than those in the control group (P＜0.05),while UCH-L1 and GFAP levels in the medium and heavy groups were higher than those in the light group (P＜0.05).There was significant difference between levels of UCH-L1 or GFAP and infarction size at different time in the observation group (P＜0.05).The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the levels of serum UCH-L1 and GFAP were positively correlated (r=0.634,P=0.001).Conclusion:The levels of serum UCH-L1 and GFAP are significantly increased at the early stage of acute cerebral infarction,and they have a certain correlation with the severity of cerebral infarction,which can provide a basis for early clinical diagnosis and treatment.
