Abstract：[ Abstratc] Obje ctive To study the changing trend of chronic disease and its related risk factors in Nanning community residents.Methods The certain community residents in Nanning were investigated using the same ques-tionnaire in 2007 and 2012, respectively.The survey items included smoking, drinking risk factors, and physical ex-amination.The comparative analysis was done statistically.Results In 2007, the prevalences of hypertension, hy-perlipidemia, diabetes and stroke were 22.8%, 14.4%, 4.2%and 2.7%respectively;The current smoking rate, drinking rate over the past 12 months, central obesity rate, and obesity rate were 23.1%, 22.0%, 60.8% and 9.8%respectively.In 2012, the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes and stroke were 23.2%, 19.4%, 8.3%and 2.8%respectively;The rate of current smoking, drinking rate over the past 12 months, central obesity rate, and obesity rate were 17.5%, 19.4%, 68.1%and 16.8%respectively.Compared with 2007, the hy-perlipidemia and diabetes prevalence in 2012 were significantly elevated(χ2 =4.536, 7.280, P=0.033, 0.007). Central obesity and obesity rates were on the rise significantly(χ2 =5.655, 10.858, P=0.017, 0.001).Neverthe-less, the current smoking rate was on the decline(χ2 =4.779, P=0.029).Hypertension and stroke prevalence, drinking rate changed little(χ2 =0.018, 0.017, 0.989, P=0.892, 0.898, 0.320).Conclusion The prevalences of hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, and central obesity are on the remarkable rise, while current smoking rate is on the decline a bit during the last 5 years in Nanning community residents.The proper diet and physical exercise such as“eat-move balanced” behavior intervention should be better to control the hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and obesity. More measures should be taken for tobacco and alcohol control.
