Demographic Factors Associated With Leading Causes of Injury Mortality in Ningbo, China: 2004-2013.
Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health 2016 November
Injuries have emerged as a crucial public health concern in China. Data were obtained from the death registry system in Ningbo during 2004-2013. Mortality rates resulting from all injuries and the 6 most common types of injuries were analyzed to identify time trends using linear regression models on both the absolute scale and log scale. A decreased male to female ratio and increasing age were observed among the total injury deaths. The annual all-injury mortality rates declined considerably during the observation period. Injury mortality rates for motor vehicle traffic crashes, drowning, and suicide all showed a deceasing trend; however, only mortality from falls showed an increasing trend. There was a sharp increasing trend among females, with a disproportionate number of falls. The injury patterns in Ningbo are mostly comparable to those in high-income countries. Appropriate preventive strategies should be urgently tailored to control this aggressive evolution in older individuals and females.
