Differences between Aboriginal health research - according to the degree of urbanization
Abstract
Associated with the indigenous people in the past found that the plight of indigenous people in Taiwan significantly higher than non- indigenous people, many of which have been discovered, Mountain mortality situation of indigenous people in Taiwan are much higher than the phenomenon, and whether ranked in the top ten causes of death, disease prevalence and other conditions also vary
significantly and the Taiwan area, coupled with the increasing competitive pressures due, so there are many indigenous people have the relocation of the phenomenon, such a situation would most aboriginal their environment changes the structure and life habits, and thus the status of their health conditions vary, as do past
mining region to the health status of indigenous peoples, because in this way is more rough, and the gap more large, therefore, this study intended to replace the Degree of urbanization, to make up for lack of past research.
The subjects of this study, MOE the Secretary in the Ministry of the Interior Notes registration information with Aboriginal person, a total of 435,476 people, were made in the cause of death of their
household registration data and data files, together in order to compile and analyze, with the urbanization of level of other differences, whether the health status of indigenous people is different, and the results obtained and the health of the people of Taiwan to compare and discuss.
The study found, either from the crude mortality rate, age- standardized mortality rate, ten causes of death, standardized
mortality ratio, infant and neonatal mortality or life expectancy, etc.
in terms of general health status of indigenous people are better than Taiwan has more poor, and with different degrees of
urbanization, the health status of the case will be different.
In this study, crude mortality rate for aboriginal population of 713.7 per 100 000 people in Taiwan as the base population in the age-
standardized mortality rate was 910.2 per 100 000 population, who, as the Taiwan region were 565.1 per 100 000 population, although the the degree of urbanization is divided into four distinct
consistency can be seen that with the lower degree of urbanization, the crude mortality rates and standardized mortality rate of cases rise, crude mortality in the first grade and second grade Native to Taiwan is also much lower than the third grade and fourth-grade Taiwanese aborigines will have to be even more than high; in the standardized mortality rate, in addition to first class, other three are also to be more than Taiwan high; if broken down into eight layers depending upon the degree of urbanization, after rolling down
slightly, this phenomenon may be, and aboriginal customs, habits or other allocation of resources in different urbanization levels differ, and the other in The average life expectancy, the zero-year-old Aboriginal male life expectancy was 64.7 years, the zero-year-old aboriginal female life expectancy was 72.6 years old, and the Taiwan area (male: 73.2 years female: 78.9 years) In contrast, Aboriginal men and Aboriginal women were less about as much as 9 years old and 6 years old.
The study found that Aboriginal health decreases with lower degree of urbanization, we suggest that you can be given to the
pathogenesis, prevention and specific behaviors involved in the impact of the effectiveness of the disease.
