Abstract Backgroud: Diabetes mellitus is a common chronic disease and a severe public health issue. The incidence trends for type 1 diabetes (TIDM) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) have rarely been studied on a global scale. We aimed to determine the temporal and geographical trends of diabetes globally.Methods: Data on diabetes mellitus, including incidence, prevalence from 1990 to 2017 were obtained from the 2017 Global Burden of Disease study. We calculated the estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) in age-standardized incidence rate (ASR) of diabetes mellitus according to sex, region, and disease type.Results: The worldwide incident cases of diabetes mellitus has increased by 102.9% from 11,303,084 cases in 1990 to 22,935,630 cases in 2017 worldwide, while the ASR increased from 233.58/100,000 persons (95% UI, 218.95–249.37) to 284.56/100,000 persons (95% UI, 262.17–309.71) in this period [EAPC=0.87, 95% confidence interval (CI):0.79–0.96]. The global ASRs of T1DM and T2DM both demonstrated significant increase during 1990-2017, with EAPCs of 0.34 (95% CI:0.30–0.39) and 0.89 (95% CI:0.80–0.97), respectively. The ASR trends also varied considerably by regions and countries. The increase in ASR was greatest in high sociodemographic index regions (EAPC=1.05, 95% CI:0.92–1.17) and lowest in low-SDI regions (EAPC=0.79, 95% CI:0.71–0.88).Conclusions: Both the number of incident cases and ASR of diabetes mellitus increased significantly during 1990-2017 worldwide, but the temporal trends varied markedly across regions and countries.

Global incidence and temporal trends of asbestosis are rarely explored. Using the detailed information on asbestosis from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2017, we described the age-standardised incidence rate (ASIR) and its average annual percentage change. A Joinpoint Regression model was applied to identify varying temporal trends over time. Although the use of asbestos has been completely banned in many countries, the ASIR of asbestosis increased globally from 1990 to 2017. Furthermore, the most pronounced increases in ASIR of asbestosis were detected in high-income North America and Australasia. These findings indicate that efforts to change the asbestos regulation policy are urgently needed.

ObjectivesPneumoconiosis remains a major global occupational health hazard and illness. Accurate data on the incidence of pneumoconiosis are critical for health resource planning and development of health policy.MethodsWe collected data for the period between 1990 and 2017 on the annual incident cases and the age-standardised incidence rates (ASIR) of pneumoconiosis aetiology from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017. We calculated the average annual percentage changes of ASIR by sex, region and aetiology in order to determine the trends of pneumoconiosis.ResultsGlobally, the number of pneumoconiosis cases increased by a measure of 66.0%, from 36 186 in 1990 to 60 055 in 2017. The overall ASIR decreased by an average of 0.6% per year in the same period. The number of pneumoconiosis cases increased across the five sociodemographic index regions, and there was a decrease in the ASIR from 1990 to 2017. The ASIR of silicosis, coal workers’ pneumoconiosis and other pneumoconiosis decreased. In contrast, measures of the ASIR of asbestosis displayed an increasing trend. Patterns of the incidence of pneumoconiosis caused by different aetiologies were found to have been heterogeneous for analyses across regions and among countries.ConclusionIncidence patterns of pneumoconiosis which were caused by different aetiologies varied considerably across regions and countries of the world. The patterns of incidence and temporal trends should facilitate the establishment of more effective and increasingly targeted methods for prevention of pneumoconiosis and reduce associated disease burden.

Abstract Background Headache has emerged as a global public health concern. However, little is known about the burden from headache disorders in China. The aim of this work was to quantify the spatial patterns and temporal trends of burden from headache disorders in China. Methods Following the general analytic strategy used in the 2017 Global Burden of Disease study, we analyzed the prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) of headache and its main subcategories, including migraine and tension-type headache (TTH), by age, sex, year and 33 province-level administrative units in China from 1990 to 2017. Results Almost 112.4 million individuals were estimated to have headache disorders in 1990 in China, which rose to 482.7 million in 2017. The all-age YLDs increased by 36.2% from 1990 to 2017. Migraine caused 5.5 million YLDs, much higher than TTH (1.1 million) in 2017. The age-standardized prevalence and YLDs rate of headache remained stable and high in 2017 compared with 1990, respectively. The proportion of total headache YLDs in all diseases increased from 1990 to 2017 by 5.4%. A female preponderance was observed for YLDs and the YLDs were mainly in people aged 20~54 years. Conclusions Headache remains a huge health burden in China from 1990 to 2017, with prevalence and YLDs rates higher in eastern provinces than western provinces. The substantial increase in headache cases and YLDs represents an ongoing challenge in Chinese population. Our results can help shape and inform headache research and public policy throughout China, especially for females and middle-aged people.

PURPOSE To map the magnitudes and temporal trends of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) along with its attributable risk factors, providing the essential foundation for targeted public policies at the national, regional, and global levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrieved annual data on CML burden in 204 countries and regions from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 in 1990-2019. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was calculated to quantify the temporal trends of CML burden by region, sex, and age group. RESULTS Globally, the age-standardized incidence rate of CML declined weakly over the past few years (EAPC: −1.04), but the number of incident cases increased by 54.1% to 65.8 × 103 in 2019. By contrast, a dramatic drop in death and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rate (EAPCs: −2.55; −2.69) led to a reduction in deaths and DALYs, especially in high-income regions. In 2019, the highest age-standardized death rate was observed in Ethiopia (1.89 per 100,000). The death rate of CML was pronounced among the population age above 70 years. DALYs of CML worldwide were primarily attributable to smoking (12.2%), high body mass index (5.0%), occupational exposure to benzene (0.9%), and occupational exposure to formaldehyde (0.3%) in 2019. CONCLUSION Although the mortality rate of CML has decreased significantly, the management of patients with CML cannot be neglected, especially in elders and developing regions.

Abstract Objective: To compare and interpret the infective endocarditis (IE) burden and temporal trends globally and in different regions from 1990 to 2019. Methods: Data on the incidences, deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of IE were extracted and analysed from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.Results: Globally, the number of IE cases and deaths has increased sharply during the past thirty years, and both presented an upward temporal trend annually. However, the estimated annual percentage changes (EAPC) of age-standardized DALYs demonstrated a negative temporal trend despite increasing DALYs. Moreover, graver IE burden was prone to males and aged patients. Meanwhile, different social-demographic index (SDI) regions had different disease burdens, and correlation analyses indicated that SDI presented a positive association with ASIR, no association with ASDR, and a negative association with age-standardized DALYs. Finally, we discovered positive associations of the EAPC of ASRs with the SDI in 2019 but few associations with the ASIR in 1990.Conclusion: Generally, the global burden of IE is ever increasing, and the epidemiology presents substantial heterogeneity in different genders, ages and regions, which may help policy-makers and medical staff respond to IE and formulate cost-effective interventional measures.
