公共卫生干预措施可挽救近1亿人的生命
- ①通过各国人口健康调查汇总,分析三种干预措施(高血压治疗,减少钠摄入量,消除人工反式脂肪酸的摄入)的影响;
- ②三种干预措施的综合效应可以在25年间延迟9430万人的死亡;
- ③单独将抗高血压治疗率提高到70%可以使3940万人延迟死亡,减少30%的钠摄入量可以延迟另外4,000万人死亡,消除反式脂肪酸摄入将延迟额外1480万人死亡;
- ④在南亚,消除反式脂肪酸的影响最大;
- ⑤在非洲撒哈拉以南,早期延迟死亡数(70岁以前的死亡)所占的比例最大。

BACKGROUND:: Preventable noncommunicable diseases, mostly
cardiovascular diseases, are responsible for 38 million deaths annually. A
few well-documented interventions have the potential to prevent many
of these deaths, but a large proportion of the population in need does
not have access to these interventions. We quantified the global mortality
impact of 3 high-impact and feasible interventions: scaling up treatment
of high blood pressure to 70%, reducing sodium intake by 30%, and
eliminating the intake of artificial trans fatty acids.
METHODS: We used global data on mean blood pressure levels and
sodium and trans fat intake by country, age, and sex from a pooled
analysis of population health surveys, and regional estimates of current
coverage of antihypertensive medications, and cause-specific mortality
rates in each country, as well, with projections from 2015 to 2040.
We used the most recent meta-analyses of epidemiological studies
to derive relative risk reductions for each intervention. We estimated
the proportional effect of each intervention on reducing mortality
from related causes by using a generalized version of the populationattributable
fraction. The effect of antihypertensive medications and
lowering sodium intake were modeled through their impact on blood
pressure and as immediate increase/reduction to the proposed targets.
RESULTS: The combined effect of the 3 interventions delayed 94.3 million
(95% uncertainty interval, 85.7–102.7) deaths during 25 years. Increasing
coverage of antihypertensive medications to 70% alone would delay
39.4 million deaths (35.9–43.0), whereas reducing sodium intake by 30%
would delay another 40.0 million deaths (35.1–44.6) and eliminating
trans fat would delay an additional 14.8 million (14.7–15.0). The
estimated impact of trans fat elimination was largest in South Asia. SubSaharan
Africa had the largest proportion of premature delayed deaths
out of all delayed deaths.
CONCLUSIONS:: Three effective interventions can save almost 100
million lives globally within 25 years. National and international efforts to
scale up these interventions should be a focus of cardiovascular disease
prevention programs.
