Evolving trends, regional differences, determinants, and disease sources of provincial-level health inequalities in china 1990-2019: a temporal convergence and novel triple decomposition analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Promoting health equity has been a worldwide goal, but serious challenges remain globally and within China. Multiple decomposition of the sources and determinants of health inequalities has significant implications for narrowing health inequalities and improve health equity.

Methods

Life expectancy (LE), healthy life expectancy (HALE), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) rates in 31 provinces of mainland China were selected as health status indicators, obtained from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database. Temporal convergence analysis was used to test the evolving trends of health status. Dagum's Gini coefficient decomposition was used to decompose the overall Gini coefficient based on intraregiona
