Abstract
Significance: This article is about assessing changes in selected indicators of public health against the background of the pandemic of a new coronavirus infection COVID-19 in adult population of the Siberian Federal District - a territory of the Russian Federation with a special climatic, geographical and ecological "portrait", characterized by a high prevalence of risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases. The study of this issue creates prerequisites for a detailed analysis of the leading causes of death and peculiar features of their statistical coding in the Siberian Federal District for a given time interval, which helps to identify true mortality from diseases of the circulatory system (in particular, coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. The purpose of the study was to assess dynamics in the indicators of total mortality and mortality from diseases of the circulatory system in adult population of the Siberian Federal District during the pandemic caused by a new coronavirus infection COVID-19. Material and methods. The study used data of the Federal State Statistics Service «Virtual statistical data mart» official website. The study analyzed non-standardized total mortality rates in adult population of the Siberian Federal District (per 100,000 population), and mortality from diseases of the circulatory system, coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction for the period from 2016 to 2021 and compared these indicators with the all-Russia data. The COVID-19 impact was assessed starting from January 2020, while the period preceding this date was conventionally designated as pre-COVID period. Ranks and econometric analysis of time series were used. Results. In the pre-COVID period, the total mortality rate in adult population was decreasing over time in the Russian Federation and most regions of the Siberian Federal District, with the exception of the Altai Republic. With the onset of the new coronavirus infection, total mortality increased in most regions of the Siberian Federal District, except for the Republic of Tyva. In the Siberian Federal District in the pre-COVID period, mortality from diseases of the circulatory system increased due to a rise in mortality from diseases of the circulatory system in the Altai Republic and Krasnoyarsk region, Irkutsk, Tomsk and Kemerovo regions; mortality from coronary artery disease increased due to a rise in mortality from diseases of the circulatory system in the Krasnoyarsk region, Altai Republic, Kemerovo, Novosibirsk and Tomsk regions; while increased mortality from myocardial infarction is associated with the increased mortality from diseases of the circulatory system in the Republic of Khakassia, Kemerovo, Novosibirsk and Irkutsk regions. With the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, there was an increase in mortality from diseases of the circulatory system and coronary artery disease in the Russian Federation and regions of the Siberian Federal District, including a rise in mortality from myocardial infarction, with the exception of the Altai Republic, and the Irkutsk region. In the Siberian Federal District in 2021, there was no increase in mortality from diseases of the circulatory system and coronary artery disease in the republics of Tyva and Khakassia, the Novosibirsk region and Krasnoyarsk Territory (only from coronary artery disease); mortality from myocardial infarction - in all regions of the Siberian Federal District, except the Tomsk region. Conclusion. The tendency towards lower total mortality in adult population in the pre-COVID period in the Russian Federation and the Siberian Federal District has changes towards increasing starting from official registration of COVID-19 cases. A similar trend is typical of diseases of the circulatory system (including coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction) in the Russian Federation and some regions of the Siberian Federal District. The COVID-19 pandemic is obviously associated with changes in public health indicators in the Russian Federation
