Methods: Using the G20 data and the China national and subnational data from GBD2013, this study deemed to comprehensively show the burden caused by burns and the change from 1990 to 2013, using the indicators of death and DALY. Results: In 2013, the standardized mortality of burns in Chinese was 0.88/100 000, with the standardized DALY rate of burn as 30.58/100 000. The ratio of DALY between males and females was 1.85 ∶ 1. Among the G20 countries, China ranked 16 for the standardized DALY rate, according to the top down order. The highest death rate was seen in the age group of 70 and over, followed by age group of 5, which had the highest DALY rate and followed by the 70 or older age group. In different provinces, Guizhou presented the highest DALY rate (50.24/100 000), with Aomen area the lowest (6.16/100 000). From 1990 to 2013, the burden of burn reduced generally. Both the standardized rates on death and DALY reduced by 68.10% and 76.95% respectively, more in females than in males. Standardized rates on death and DALY reduced among all the age groups, with the rates of reduction increasing by age. From 1990 to 2013, the DALY rate decreased in all the provinces.
