Abstract Background: This study aims to explore the trend of NHL mortality caused by high body mass index (HBMI) in China from 1992 to 2021. Methods: The mortality data is obtained from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease (GBD). We used the Age-Period-Cohort Model (APC) method to evaluate the trend of HBMI induced NHL mortality in China. Result: The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of NHL due to HBMI in China has been increasing from 1992 to 2021.Mortality from NHL in China with HBMI is positively associated with age, and males is higher.The period effect show that the death from NHL caused by HBMI in China show a V-shaped trend, while males show increasing trend.The cohort effect suggests that the risk of death from NHL caused by HBMI in China is increasing,and the risk of death has increased by 4-fold.The mortality risk is higher in males. Conclusion:In the past 30 years, HBMI has led to an increasing trend of ASMRs for NHL in China, which requires immediate measures such as weight control and healthy lifestyle, especially for males, to further reduce the proportion of obese or overweight people and reduce the national burden of NHL disease.
