The current status and trend of disease burden of neoplasms in 1990 and 2016 for Beijing people

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the current status and trend of disease burden of neoplasms in 1990 and 2016 for Beijing people. Methods: The incidence situation, deaths status and disease burden of neoplasms in Beijing were described by using the results of the global burden of diseases study 2016 (GBD 2016). The measurement index included incidence, death, years of life lost due to premature mortality (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and disability-adjusted years (DALY). Using the average world population from 2000 to 2025 as standard population to calculate the age-standardized incidence rate, mortality rate, DALY rate, YLL rate and YLD rate. Results: The age-standardized incidence rate of neoplasms in 2016 was 250.68 per 100 000, which increased by 30.03% than in 1990. The age-standardized mortality rate was 115.83 per 100 000, which decreased by 26.71% than in 1990. The DALY, YLL and YLD of neoplasms in 2016 were 671.2, 651.1 and 20.1 thousand person-years, respectively, which increased by 85.83%, 82.79% and 302.00% than those in 1990. The age-standardized DALY rate and YLL rate were 2 549.00 and 2 469.84 per 100 000, which decreased by 33.22% and 34.30% than those in 1990. The age-standardized YLD rate was 79.16 per 100 000, which increased by 37.17% than that in 1990. The male DALY, YLL and YLD in 2016 were 428.8, 417.8 and 11.0 thousand person-years, and female were 242.4, 233.3 and 9.1 thousand person-years, respectively.Among different neoplasms, the top three neoplasms of DALY and YLL were lung cancer, liver cancer, colon and rectum cancer, the top three of YLD were lung cancer, colon and rectum cancer, breast cancer. The topped group of disease burden of neoplasms was aged from 50 to 69 years old, the DALY of which was 323.6 thousand person-years, accounted for 48.21% of all DALY, and increased by 87.70% than that in 1990. Conclusions: The disease burden of neoplasms in Beijing is dominated by YLL, and the YLD increases rapidly. The burden is severe in the group of aged from 50 to 69 years old, and the male is severer than female. Lung cancer ranks the first of the disease burden of neoplasms. The DALY of colorectal cancer has increased. Comprehensive strategies should be promoted, including cultivating a good lifestyle and implementing prevention and control of neoplasm risk factors as early as teenage group, early screening of high-risk population, and enhancing the instruction of patients' treatment and rehabilitation.
