Trends and Risk Factors of Mortality and Disability-Adjusted Life Years for Cardiovascular Diseases from 1990 to 2017: Systematic Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017

Background: Eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN), are complex mental disorders. A better understanding of the burden of eating disorders is essential for improving their management. Information about the burden of eating disorders at the national level in China remains unclear.Methods: This is a systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2019. The sex- and age-specific prevalence, incidence, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of eating disorders in China were estimated by systematically reviewing all available epidemiological data and inputting these data into a Bayesian meta-regression tool (DisMod-MR 2.0). Trends in the age-standardized prevalence, incidence, and DALYs due to AN and BN were assessed from 1990 to 2019.Results: The age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), prevalence rate (ASPR), and DALY rate per 100,000 population were estimated to be 13.22 (95% UI, 9.35–18.23), 38.08 (95% UI: 26.37–55.73), and 8.38 (95% UI, 4.87–13.35) for AN and 130.05 (95% UI, 84.02–187.13), 75.21 (95% UI, 48.52–105.97), and 16.16 (95% UI, 9.23–25.40) for BN, respectively, in 2019. The prevalence, incidence, and DALY rate of AN peaked at 15–19 years old. The prevalence and DALY rate of BN peaked at 30–34 years old. Females had a higher burden of AN and a lower burden of BN than males. The ASIR, ASPR, and DALY significantly increased by 1.3% (95% CI: 1.3–1.4%), 1.6% (95% CI, 1.5–1.6%), and 1.6% (95% CI, 1.5–1.7%) for AN and 1.4% (95% CI: 1.4–1.4%), 2.0% (95% CI, 2.0–2.1%), and 2.0% (95% CI, 2.0–2.1%) for BN, respectively, from 1990 to 2019 in China. In addition, the increments in all the age-standardized measures of BN were higher in males than in females.Conclusions: The burden of eating disorders in China showed unexpected patterns that varied by sex and age, with increasing trends of AN and BN from 1990 to 2019. More attention should be given to improving the burden of BN in males in China.

Abstract Objectives The burden of gout has been increasing globally. However, little is known about the global, regional and national distribution and time trend of this disease. We present a comprehensive analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 on gout burden estimates for 195 countries or territories between 1990 and 2017. Methods Age-standardized prevalence and disability-adjusted life-years of gout were reported between 1990 and 2017 in 195 countries and territories, and associations between these estimates and sociodemographic index (SDI) were further explored. Total and annual percent change between 1990 and 2017 were calculated to quantify the time trends of gout burden. Results Age-standardized prevalence rates (95% uncertainty interval) per 100 000 persons were 790.90 (706.10–881.90) and 253.49 (225.69–284.02) in 2017 in males and females, respectively. The annual percent change in age-standardized prevalence (males, 0.22%; females, 0.38%) and disability-adjusted life-years (males, 0.21%; females, 0.38%) of gout increased every year from 1990 to 2017, globally. The highest increase was detected in high-SDI countries, especially in high-income North America. A non-linear association was observed between burden of gout and SDI, with the lowest estimates of gout burden when SDI value was about 0.6. High BMI was the leading risk factor for the burden of gout. Conclusion These study results suggest a globally rising trajectory of gout burden between 1990 and 2017. More effective interventions, such as detailed and intensive dietary managements and other prevention strategies for reducing obesity, should be carried out to reverse this trend, especially in females and high-SDI countries.
