Abstract

The objective of this cross-sectional study was to analyze the epidemiological profile of 3549 natural hazard-related disasters in Asia between 2000 and 2021. Using data compiled by the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED), we calculated the average rates of affected individuals, injuries, and deaths per year and per million inhabitants by type of disasters and applied ANOVA test to compare these estimates. Geophysical disasters, which include earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mass movements of dry origin, were most severe with the highest average death (5973.236 per million), injury (5808.106 per million), and affected people rates (329 679.2 per million). In contrast, meteorological disasters registered the lowest average rate of deaths (44.377 per million), climatological disasters registered the lowest average rate of people injured (17.351 per million), while biological disasters exhibited the lowest average rate of affected people (2818.505 per million). There were significant decreasing trends in the average rates of the number of deaths (tau = - 0.34; p = 0.028), affected people (tau = - 0.32; p = 0.039), and injured people (tau = - 0.31; p = 0.042). We detected no trend in the frequency of all-natural hazard-related disasters.

2000 - 2021年亚洲自然灾害相关灾害的流行病学概况。
本横断面研究的目的是分析2000年至2021年间亚洲3549起自然灾害相关灾害的流行病学概况。利用灾害流行病学研究中心(CRED)编制的数据,我们按灾害类型计算了每年和每百万居民受影响的个人、受伤和死亡的平均比率,并应用方差分析(ANOVA)测试来比较这些估计。地球物理灾害最为严重,其中包括地震、火山爆发和干燥起源的大规模运动,平均死亡人数(5973.236 /百万人)、受伤人数(5808.106 /百万人)和受影响人数(329 679.2 /百万人)最高。相比之下,气象灾害的平均死亡率最低(44.377 /百万人),气候灾害的平均受伤人数最低(17.351 /百万人),生物灾害的平均受灾人数最低(2818.505 /百万人)。平均死亡率呈显著下降趋势(tau = - 0.34;P = 0.028),受影响的人(tau = - 0.32;P = 0.039),受伤人员(tau = - 0.31;p = 0.042)。我们没有发现与自然灾害有关的灾害发生频率的趋势。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Public Health Policy (JPHP) will continue its 35 year tradition: an accessible source of scholarly articles on the epidemiologic and social foundations of public health policy, rigorously edited, and progressive. JPHP aims to create a more inclusive public health policy dialogue, within nations and among them. It broadens public health policy debates beyond the ''health system'' to examine all forces and environments that impinge on the health of populations. It provides an exciting platform for airing controversy and framing policy debates - honing policies to solve new problems and unresolved old ones. JPHP welcomes unsolicited original scientific and policy contributions on all public health topics. New authors are particularly encouraged to enter debates about how to improve the health of populations and reduce health disparities.
