Sumario: | Lymphoma is a malignant disease that threatens human health and imposes a significant burden on the society burden; however, there are limited accurate mortality data on lymphoma in China. The present study aimed to analyse lymphoma-associated mortality at the national and provincial levels in mainland China. Mortality data of lymphoma was extracted from the disease surveillance system of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Mortality was represented by the number of deaths, crude mortality rate, and age-standardized mortality rate. Temporal trends in mortality rates were examined using the fitting joinpoint models. Lymphoma accounted for 31,225 deaths in 2020, of which 1,838 and 29,387 were due to Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), respectively. The age-standardized mortality rate per 100,000 population was 1.76 for lymphoma, 0.10 for HL, and 1.66 for NHL. The mortality rate increased with age, reaching a peak in the age group of 80–84 years for HL and over 85 years for NHL. Moreover, the death risk due to lymphoma was approximately 1.5–2 times greater in males than in females in all age groups. The mortality rate was higher in eastern China than in central and western China, indicating a heterogeneous distribution at the provincial level. During 2013–2020, the mortality rate of lymphoma decreased by 1.85% (−22.94% for HL and −0.14% for NHL). In conclusion, the mortality of lymphoma varied by sex, age, and regions, which highlighted the need of establish differentiated strategy for disease control and prevention. |
