Brain and CNS cancers (collectively referred to as cancers) are a source of mortality morbidity for which diagnosis treatment require extensive resource allocation sophisticated diagnostic therapeutic technology. Previous epidemiological studies limited specific geographical regions or time periods, making them difficult compare on global scale. In this analysis, we aimed provide comparable comprehensive estimation the burden brain cancer between 1990 2016.We report means 95% uncertainty...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Malnutrition is a major contributor to disease burden in India. To inform subnational action, we aimed assess the due malnutrition and trends its indicators every state of India relation Indian global nutrition targets. <h3>Methods</h3> We analysed attributable child maternal malnutrition, from 1990 2017 using all accessible data multiple sources, as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017. The states were categorised into...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> India has made substantial progress in improving child survival over the past few decades, but a comprehensive understanding of mortality trends at disaggregated geographical levels is not available. We present detailed analysis subnational to inform efforts aimed meeting National Health Policy (NHP) and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets for mortality. <h3>Methods</h3> assessed under-5 rate (U5MR) neonatal (NMR) from 2000 2017 5 × km grids across...
Lung cancer is the leading cause of deaths worldwide. This study examines current and future burden lung at global, regional, national levels.The estimates incident cases, deaths, their age-standardized rates are drawn from GLOBOCAN 2020 for 21 regions 185 countries. Mortality-to-incidence ratio (MIR) considered as a proxy indicator 5-year survival rates. in 2050 projected using age-specific incidence death 2020.In 2020, there were 2.21 million new cases 1.8 due to worldwide with rate (ASIR)...
Objective Cancer incidence and mortality rates in Africa are increasing, yet their geographic distribution determinants incompletely characterized. The present study aims to establish the spatial epidemiology of cancer burden delineate association between country-level socioeconomic status. also examines forecasts for 2040 evaluates infrastructure availability across all African countries. Methods estimates age, sex, country-specific 34 neoplasms 54 countries, were procured from GLOBOCAN...
Cancers represent a challenging public health threat in Asia. This study examines the temporal patterns of incidence, mortality, disability and risk factors 29 cancers Asia last three decades. The age, sex year-wise estimates disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 49 Asian countries from 1990 through 2019 were generated as part Global Burden Disease, Injuries Risk Factors study. Besides mortality DALYs, we also examined cancer burden measured terms DALYs deaths attributable to factors,...
This paper re-examines health-growth relationship using an unbalanced panel of 17 advanced economies for the period 1870–2013 and employs generalised method moments estimator that takes care endogeneity issues, which arise due to reverse causality. We utilise macroeconomic data corresponding inflation, government expenditure, trade schooling in sample countries omitted variable bias growth regression. With alternate model specifications, we show population health proxied by life expectancy...

Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) mostly occurs in persons older than 45 years of age. In India, CAD manifests almost a decade earlier Western countries. This study was done to the risk factors and angiographic profile young patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Patients Methods: One hundred twenty four consecutive AMI at less 40 age were studied for factors. angiography all. Results: Out 124 patients, 123 male. Mean 35.94 ± yrs. eighteen had ST elevation (MI)...
Abstract Purpose This study aims to examine the burden of primary liver cancer in 185 countries 2018. Methods The estimates incidence, mortality and prevalence were procured from GLOBOCAN development status a country was measured using human index—a composite indicator income per capita, education life expectancy. Results Globally, resulted an estimated 781 631 deaths at age-standardized rate 8.5/100 000, 841 080 cases be diagnosed Males accounted for 596 574 548 375 deaths, which is more...
PURPOSE AML accounts for 80% of acute leukemia in adults. While progress has been made treating younger patients the past 2 decades, there limited improvement older until recently. This study examines global and European Union (EU) 15+ trends between 1990 2019. METHODS We extracted age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs), death (ASMRs), disability-adjusted life years, stratified by sex from Global Burden Disease Study database, mortality-to-incidence ratio (MIR) were computed. Trends...
To inform actions at the district level under National Nutrition Mission (NNM), we assessed prevalence trends of child growth failure (CGF) indicators for all districts in India and inequality between within states.We CGF (stunting, wasting underweight) from 2000 to 2017 across India, aggregated 5 × km grid estimates, using accessible data various surveys with subnational geographical information. The states were categorised into three groups their Socio-demographic Index (SDI) levels...
Abstract Background Breast cancer is the leading malignancy in African females. This study aims to examine breast burden Africa using recently released GLOBOCAN 2018 estimates. Methods The incidence and mortality estimates of age- country-wise 54 countries were obtained from 2018. Results In Africa, caused 74 072 deaths, 168 690 cases estimated have occurred age-standardized rate stood at 37.9/100 000 varying 6.9/100 Gambia 69.6/100 Mauritius. 17.2/100 2018, ranging 4/100 29.1/100 Somalia...
We report the gender-based differences in prevalence, severity, pattern of valvular involvement, and complications patients with Rheumatic Fever/Rheumatic heart disease (RF/RHD).The 2475 consecutive RF/RHD diagnosed using clinical echocardiographic criteria were registered prospectively from January 2011 till December 2019. The association gender nature, severity dysfunction cardiovascular was analyzed a logistic regression model, odds ratios 95% CI estimated.The mitral tricuspid valve...
Amidst the rising breast cancer burden in Asia, we aim to predict future mortality risk due and identify risk-attributable deaths for among East South Asian countries.
This study empirically investigates the effects of poverty and urbanization on environmental degradation for a sample 43 sub-Saharan African (SSA) economies from 1995 to 2018. The major contribution lies in examining existence non-linear degradation. We considered set institutional demographic factors explain dynamics among poverty, urbanization, Findings suggest that an increase gap significantly contributes towards intensifying SSA countries. Results also show relationship between findings...
