[Change trend of disease burden of chronic kidney disease mortality in Chongqing, 2012-2023].

<b>Objective:</b> To analyze change trend of disease burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) mortality between 2012 and 2023 in Chongqing, and provide suggestion for CKD prevention. <b>Methods:</b> The mortality data of CKD were collected from Chongqing death registration between 2012 and 2023 according to International Classification of Diseases 10^th. The data were analyzed to calculate mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, age specific mortality rate, and the rate of years of life lost (YLL) and proportion by using software SPSS 26.0. The mortality rate of CKD between men and women, urban area and rural area were compared by <i>χ</i>² test. The change trend was described by average annual percent of change (AAPC). <b>Results:</b> The mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD were 7.94/100 000 and 4.63/100 000 respectively in 2012 and 6.70/100 000 and 2.79/100 000 respectively in 2023 in Chongqing. The difference in change of CKD mortality rate was not significant (AAPC=-0.79%, <i>t</i>=-1.60, <i>P</i>=0.273). However, the standardized mortality rate of CKD decreased by 3.59% (<i>t</i>=-3.98, <i>P</i>=0.003) from 2012 to 2023. The mortality rate of CKD was higher in men than in women in 2014 and 2022, the differences were significant (all <i>P</i><0.05). The standardized mortality rate of CKD in men and women decreased by 3.17% and 4.11% respectively between 2012 and 2023, the difference was significant (all <i>P</i><0.05). The mortality rate of CKD had been higher in urban area than in rural area since 2016 (all <i>P</i><0.05). During this period, the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in urban area remained stable, but the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in rural area showed average annual decreases of 2.21% and 4.90%, the differences were significant (all <i>P</i><0.05). The proportion of CKD due to hypertension decreased, but the proportion of CKD due to diabetes and other causes increased. The rate of age standardized YLL of CKD showed an average annual decrease of 2.83%, the differences were significant (<i>P</i>=0.011). <b>Conclusions:</b> The standardized mortality rate and age standardized YLL of CKD decreased from 2012 to 2023 in Chongqing. Men, urban residents and the elderly are key populations in CKD prevention.
