China is related to nutritional deficiency through documented trends in mortality and incidence rates, which have significantly declined due to improved dietary patterns and treatments as noted in [1], [2], and [3]. Additionally, China is identified as a country with a high total burden of these conditions due to its large population size, as evidenced by [4] and [5].

measurementIn China, the incidence rate of nutritional deficiencies dropped from 11,654.93 per 100,000 in 1990 to 3,408.88 per 100,000 in 2021, a decrease of 3.73 times.
claimImproved dietary patterns and increased nutritional treatments in China and India have led to a reduction in the incidence and mortality of nutritional deficiencies.
measurementIn 2021, the highest actual prevalence, incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of nutritional deficiencies were observed in China and India.
claimThe high total number of nutritional deficiency cases in China and India is attributed to their large population bases, despite having relatively low incidence rates per person.
claimWhile mortality rates for nutritional deficiencies declined in China, India, Nigeria, Mexico, and the Philippines between 1990 and 2021, rates increased in the United States and Zimbabwe.
