Sumario: | What is already known about this topic? The burden from chronic non-communicable diseases has become an important public health concern in China. What is added by this report? The most recent estimates on incidence, prevalence, and mortality for cancer, cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, and diabetes in China during 1990-2017 reveal that the accumulated prevalences of the four major NCDs are increasing, but the age-standardized mortality rates for CVD, cancer, and CRD have been on a decline during the period of 1990-2017. What are the implications for public health practice? More effective intervention strategies should be developed to deal with the continuously increasing burden caused by NCDs. |
