MORTALITY FROM CIRCULATORY SYSTEM DISEASES IN THE KEMEROVO REGION AND THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION IN 2000–2016

Abstract

Aim. To estimate the trends in mortality from circulatory system diseases, including coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular diseases, in the Kemerovo region in the period from 2000 to 2016 and compare it with the national trends.Methods. Data on national mortality rates, including those among adults of working age (men 16–59 years, women 16–54 years) from circulatory system diseases, coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular diseases in the period from 2000 to 2016 were obtained through the national statistical reports. A linear trend in the regional mortality rate to the national one has been reported.Results. Mortality rate from circulatory system diseases in the period from 2000 to 2016 tends to a decrease in the Kemerovo region and the Russian Federation. The comparative analysis of mortality rates in the Kemerovo region and the Russian Federation reported lower regional mortality rates in the general population. Despite lower mortality rates from coronary artery disease in the general population and working population, there are higher mortality rates from cerebrovascular diseases. Conclusion. The trend in mortality from circulatory system diseases in the Kemerovo region is comparable to that in the Russian Federation. Specific regional features related to the interaction of various factors, including regional healthcare system, have been determined. The trends in mortality from coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular diseases in the period from 2000 to 2016 have been presented.
