Abstract:Objective To analyze the death level and its changing tendency, distribution characteristics as well as life lost due to main malignant tumors among residents in Dingcheng District of Changde City from 2013 to 2015, and to provide evidence for prevention and control of malignant tumors. Methods We statistically analyzed the data of annual registered death causes and the population information in Dingcheng District of Changde City during 2013-2015. The incidence was standardized by utilizing the demographic data based on the nationwide population census in 2010, and the mortality rate, the potential years of life lost (PYLL) and death cause-excluded life expectancy were calculated. Results The mortality rate of malignant tumors and the standardized mortality rate among residents in Dingcheng District of Changde City during 2013-2015 were 141.53/100,000 and 117.05/100,000 respectively. The standardized mortality rate was significantly higher in males than in females (157.20/100,000 vs. 77.03/100,000, P<0.001). The top five causes of deaths were bronchus and lung cancer, live cancer, gastric cancer, brain tumor, colorectal and anal cancer, and the mortality rate increased obviously with the age, especially among the people over 60 years old. The PYLL (per 1 000 persons) due to malignant tumors was 20.23 years, and the average PYLL for each death was 14.30 years. Life expectancy of the residents in Dingcheng District of Changde City was 79.80 years, which was increased by 2.40 years when the deaths due to malignant tumors were excluded. Conclusions In 2013-2015,malignant tumors seriously affected the life and health of the residents in Dingcheng District of Changde City,brought about enormous potential life lost and brings down the life expectancy in the population. Bronchus and lung cancer, live cancer and gastric cancer were the most common death causes. It is necessary to take targeted countermeasures to prevent malignant tumors according to their characteristics among different populations.
