Abstract

Background: Traffic accidents are one of the most critical health problems and the ninth leading cause of death globally. We aimed to determine the Mortality rate and the number of Years of Life Lost (YLL) due to road traffic accidents. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, mortality rate and YLL due to road traffic accidents were examined in Fars province, central Iran during the years 2004-2019. Mortality statistics were collected through death registration of ministry of health and medical education for Fars Province. Age Standardized mortality Rate (ASR) was calculated and join point regression analysis carried out to examine the trend of YLL rate. Data were analyzed using Excel spreadsheet version 2016 and Join point Regression Program 4.9.0.0. Results: During the 16-year study period, 25,858 deaths due to road traffic accidents occurred in the province. 79.2% (20483 cases) were in men, and 33.7% (8703 cases) were aged 15-29 years. Total YLL during the 16-year study period were 458,975 (14.6 per 1000 people) in men, 117,999 (3.8 per 1000 people) in women. According to the join point regression, the 16- year trend of YLL rate due to premature mortality was decreasing: AAPC was -4.9% (95% CI: -8.8 to -0.9; P=0.018) for male, and -3.5% (95% CI: -6.3 to-0.5; P=0.011) for female. Conclusion: Considering that the number of deaths, mortality rate and YLL has decreased in Fars province during the 16 years under study. Therefore, because the mortality rate due to road traffic accidents in Iran is higher than the global average, the need for training programs for drivers, compliance with standards and retrofitting of vehicles, road safety, driving supervision and the use of seat belts are essential.

2004-2019年法尔斯省道路交通事故死亡率和死亡年数

背景:交通事故是最严重的健康问题之一，也是全球第九大死亡原因。我们的目的是确定由于道路交通事故造成的死亡率和生命损失年数(YLL)。方法:在这项回顾性队列研究中，研究了2004-2019年伊朗中部法尔斯省道路交通事故死亡率和YLL。死亡统计数据通过法尔斯省卫生和医学教育部的死亡登记收集。计算年龄标准化死亡率(ASR)，采用连接点回归分析YLL率变化趋势。数据分析使用Excel电子表格版本2016和连接点回归程序4.9.0.0. 结果:在16年的研究期间，该省有25,858人死于道路交通事故。男性占79.2%(20483例)，15 ~ 29岁占33.7%(8703例)。在16年的研究期间，男性的YLL总数为458,975例(每千人14.6例)，女性为117,999例(每千人3.8例)。根据联系点回归，16年早产儿死亡率呈下降趋势:AAPC为-4.9% (95% CI: -8.8 ~ -0.9;P=0.018)，男性为-3.5% (95% CI: -6.3 ~ 0.5;P=0.011);结论:考虑到法尔斯省的死亡人数，死亡率和YLL在研究的16年中有所下降。因此，由于伊朗道路交通事故造成的死亡率高于全球平均水平，因此必须为驾驶员提供培训方案、遵守标准和改装车辆、道路安全、驾驶监督和使用安全带。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
