The Tendencies of Prevalence of Diseases of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue in Moscow Adult Population

Abstract

The article presents the results of analysis of trends in morbidity and dispensary observation of Moscow adult population with diseases of musculoskeletal system and connective tissue. The analysis was applied to data from statistical report forms # 12 of the Moscow Health Care Department in 2012-2016. The stability of percentage of diseases of musculoskeletal system in the structure of total and primary morbidity during last 5 years was established. The significant dynamics of indices of total morbidity is absent. The statistically significant descending trend if primary morbidity at the expense of deforming dorsopathies in the age group older than 55 years was established. The deforming dorsopathies hold first place in the structure of diseases of musculoskeletal system. The dynamics of decreasing of indices of total morbidity of the given pathology in the age group of 18-55 years and older than 55 years is statistically non-significant. The statistically significant ascending tendency of indices of total morbidity of arthroses of adult population and primary morbidity of synovial membranes and tendons in the age group of 18-55 years is established. The established in adult population and individuals aged 18-55 years both decreasing of number of being dispensary registered on the subject of pathology of musculoskeletal system and its increasing among individuals older than 55 years are statistically non-significant. The trend of dropping of indicator of being on dispensary registration of individuals with primarily diagnosed pathology is also insignificant. The correlation between rate of dispensary registration and primary morbidity, including particular pathologies, is absent.
