Disease burden of interstitial lung disease and pulmonary sarcoidosis from 1992 to 2021 and prediction of future disease burden trend in China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prevalence of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary sarcoidosis (PS) is rising, posing a significant health concern globally and particularly in China. This study aims to elucidate the disease burden of ILD & PS in China and to provide projections of future trends.

Methods

This study examined ILD and PS prevalence and mortality rates in China, focusing on variations by age, gender, and time period. Data were obtained from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database. We employed Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) modeling, Joinpoint regression (JPR), and traditional age-period-cohort (APC) analysis to evaluate trends. The age-standardized prevalence rose by 8%, while the overall mortality rate also increased, despite a 2.5% decrease in the age-stand
