    Objective To investigate the disease constitution and cost of inpatients in Gaozha Central Township Health Center (GzC) in Wuzhong City of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region from 2008 to 2010, so as to provide baseline data for further research. Methods A questionnaire combined with a special interview was carried out, and case records and cost information of GzC inpatients in 2008, 2009 and 2010 (from January to November) were collected. The diseases in discharge record were classified according to International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) based on the first diagnose and the cost was analyzed. Data including general information of the inpatients, discharge diagnosis, hospitalization expenses, and drug cost etc. were rearranged and analyzed by Excel software. Results a) The total number of the inpatients was 1124, 642 and 747 in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The female was more than the male in both 2008 (59.34% vs. 40.66%) and 2009 (60.75% vs. 39.25%), and their disease spectrum included 17 categories, which accounted for 81% of ICD-10; b) The top six most commonly seen systematic diseases with a constituent ratio from 86.63% to 92.06% in recent three years were as follows: the respiratory system, digestive system, circulatory system, genitourinary system, injury and toxicosis, skeletal musculature and connective tissue disease. Except the injury and toxicosis, the other five systematic diseases were commonly seen in females rather than in males; c) The top 15 monopathies in recent three years were pulmonary infection, tracheitis or bronchitis, coronary heart disease, soft tissue injury, gastritis or chronic gastritis, upper respiratory infection, hypertension, urinary tract infection, prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc, pelvic inflammation, fracture, pneumocardial diseases, superficial injury, chronic cholecystitis and arthritis; d) The main burdens of disease for inpatients focused on 35-54 age groups, then followed by the age groups above 55 in 2008 and 2009. Except the injury and toxicosis, the other diseases were commonly seen in females rather than in males. Pulmonary infection focused on the age groups above 35; the onset of hypertension increased obviously and a sharp rise of hypertension existed in the 45-54 age groups in 2008, but the hypertention focused on 35-44 age groups in 2009; e) The total inpatients with top 15 monopathies accounted for 64.06% to 71.21%, including 8-9 chronic diseases ranking higher in 2010, and 6-7 acute diseases focusing on infection and injury; and f) The average costs of chronic diseases were higher than those of acute diseases. Conclusion a) There is a big gap between GzC and Yong’an Central Township Health Center (YaC) regarding the level of the regional economic development, the situation of disease burden and cost of inpatients. The former is demonstrated as general Central Township Health Center, while the latter as affluent Central Township Health Center in western China; b) In recent three years, the main systematic diseases are in respiratory, circulatory and digestive system; the inpatients suffer from more chronic diseases rather than acute diseases in their young age; the acute diseases mainly include infection and injury, and the pulmonary infection has ranked as the first during the past three years; c) The inpatients in 2008 and 2009 are mainly in ages of 35 to 54, and then are over 55 years old. Except the injury and toxicosis, the other diseases were commonly seen in females rather than in males; d) The patients’ average costs of chronic diseases for hospitalization and drug in 2010 were lower than those of YaC. Consideration on reasonable constitution of the cost for hospitalization should be paid attention to; and e) It is urgent to strengthen the construction of infrastructure and informatization in GzC.

  • The Change of Spectrum of Thyroid Diseases Within Ten Years Implementation of Universal Salt Iodization in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region

    Objective To reveal the relationship between the iodine nutrition and the change of spectrum of thyroiddiseases by analyzing the change of spectrum of thyroid diseases in different iodine environments before and after the implementation of universal salt iodization (USI). Methods To compare the urinary iodine concentration between the normal people (1 000 cases) and the patients with thyroid diseases (5 998 cases) by surgical operations who were from 4 cities of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, covering the iodine deficient areas and the iodine rich areas. Results After the USI was put into practice, the proportions of nodular goiter decreased, but the proportions of toxic nodular goiter, thyroid papillary carcinoma, and Hashimoto thyroiditis were higher than those before USI (P<0.05). The urinaryiodine concentrations of nodular goiter, Graves disease, toxic nodular goiter, thyroid papillary carcinoma, and Hashimotothyroiditis were higher than those before the measure was taken (P<0.05). The urinary iodine concentration of patients with thyroid was higher than that of normal people (P<0.05), and the urinary iodine concentration of patients with thyroidand normal people was higher than those before the USI (P<0.05). Conclusions The change of spectrum of thyroid diseases in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is obvious within 10 years after USI had been taken. The excessive intake of iodine may be one of the dangerous factors leading to toxic nodular goiter, thyroid papillary carcinoma, and Hashimoto thyroiditis.
