Abstract: Objective To understand the incidence level and trend of acute events of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases among residents in Jiangyin City from 2017 to 2022, and to provide scientific basis for formulating effective measures for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Methods According to the data provided by the chronic disease collection system of Jiangsu Province, the monitoring results of acute events of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases from 2017 to 2022 were statistically analyzed, and the differences in the incidence and incidence rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in different years, disease types, genders, and seasons were analyzed. Results From 2017 to 2022, a total of 76 429 cases of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were reported in Jiangyin, with an average annual incidence rate of 1 008.99/100 000. The incidence rate of acute events of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases was 1 032.40/100 000 in 2017, 1 055.12/100 000 in 2019, and then decreased year by year. The acute events of stroke and coronary heart disease were 71806 and 4639, respectively, with an average annual incidence rate of 948.03/100 000 and 6.12/100 000, respectively. The incidence of stroke in the whole population, men and women increased first and then decreased; However, the overall incidence of acute coronary heart disease has slightly increased, with the incidence remaining relatively stable in the past five years. The difference of incidence rate between men and women in different years was statistically significant (χ²=125.98); There is a significant difference in the incidence of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events among residents in Jiangyin City from 2017 to 2019 compared to 2020 to 2022. The number of cases varies greatly in winter and spring, and the difference in incidence is the smallest in summer. Conclusion There is a decreasing trend in the incidence of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in Jiangyin City from 2020 to 2022 compared to 2017 to 2019; Men have higher incidence than women.
