Abstract

What is already known about this topic?: There has been a lack of attention to genitourinary diseases for an extended period, resulting in limited research on the mortality trends of genitourinary diseases in China.

What is added by this report?: This study examines the long-term trend of genitourinary diseases' mortality across Chinese individuals of all genders and in various urban and rural regions. Additionally, it investigates the impact of age-period-cohort effects on this trend.

What are the implications for public health practice?: It is imperative to address genitourinary diseases, particularly among vulnerable populations such as rural older men. Policymakers should prioritize these individuals by providing necessary policy interventions and healthcare support.

Keywords: Genitourinary Diseases; Long-term Trend; Mortality.
