BackgroundThe Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016 (GBD 2016) provides a comprehensive assessment risk factor exposure attributable burden disease. By providing estimates over long time series, this study can monitor trends critical to health surveillance inform policy debates on the importance addressing risks in context.MethodsWe used comparative framework developed for previous iterations GBD estimate levels exposure, deaths, disability-adjusted life-years...
Cancer and other noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are now widely recognized as a threat to global development. The latest United Nations high-level meeting on NCDs reaffirmed this observation also highlighted the slow progress in 2011 Political Declaration Prevention Control of Noncommunicable Diseases third Sustainable Development Goal. Lack situational analyses, priority setting, budgeting have been identified major obstacles achieving these goals. All common that they require information...
Measurement of changes in health across locations is useful to compare and contrast changing epidemiological patterns against system performance identify specific needs for resource allocation research, policy development, programme decision making. Using the Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016, we drew from two widely used summary measures monitor such population health: disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) healthy life expectancy (HALE). We these track trends...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Accurate and up-to-date assessment of demographic metrics is crucial for understanding a wide range social, economic, public health issues that affect populations worldwide. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 produced updated comprehensive assessments the key indicators fertility, mortality, migration, population 204 countries territories selected subnational locations from 1950 to 2019. <h3>Methods</h3> 8078 country-years...
Assessments of age-specific mortality and life expectancy have been done by the UN Population Division, Department Economics Social Affairs (UNPOP), United States Census Bureau, WHO, as part previous iterations Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD). Previous GBD used population estimates from UNPOP, which were not derived in a way that was internally consistent with numbers deaths GBD. The present iteration GBD, 2017, improves on assessments provides timely experience...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Detailed assessments of mortality patterns, particularly age-specific mortality, represent a crucial input that enables health systems to target interventions specific populations. Understanding how all-cause has changed with respect development status can identify exemplars for best practice. To accomplish this, the Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016 (GBD 2016) estimated sex-specific between 1970 195 countries territories at...
Timely assessment of the burden HIV/AIDS is essential for policy setting and programme evaluation. In this report from Global Burden Disease Study 2015 (GBD 2015), we provide national estimates levels trends incidence, prevalence, coverage antiretroviral therapy (ART), mortality 195 countries territories 1980 to 2015.For without high-quality vital registration data, estimated prevalence incidence with data antenatal care clinics population-based seroprevalence surveys, assumptions by age sex...
BackgroundIn September, 2015, the UN General Assembly established Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs specify 17 universal goals, 169 targets, and 230 indicators leading up to 2030. We provide an analysis of 33 health-related SDG based on Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2015 (GBD 2015).MethodsWe applied statistical methods systematically compiled data estimate performance for 188 countries from 1990 2015. rescaled each indicator a scale 0 (worst observed value...
BackgroundEfforts to establish the 2015 baseline and monitor early implementation of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) highlight both great potential for threats improving health by 2030. To fully deliver on SDG aim “leaving no one behind”, it is increasingly important examine health-related SDGs beyond national-level estimates. As part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2017 (GBD 2017), we measured progress 41 52 indicators estimated index 195 countries territories...
BackgroundPopulation estimates underpin demographic and epidemiological research are used to track progress on numerous international indicators of health development. To date, internationally available population fertility, although useful, have not been produced with transparent replicable methods do use standardised mortality. We present single-calendar year single-year age fertility by sex methods.MethodsWe estimated in 195 locations single calendar from 1950 2017 methods. based the...
The UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are grounded in the global ambition of "leaving no one behind". Understanding today's gains and gaps for health-related SDGs is essential decision makers as they aim to improve health populations. As part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016 (GBD 2016), we measured 37 50 SDG indicators over period 1990-2016 188 countries, then on basis these past trends, projected 2030.
Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF)-giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life-is a component optimal practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF are known to vary by population comparable subnational estimates prevalence progress across low- middle-income countries (LMICs) required planning policy interventions. Here we present geospatial analysis from 2000 2018 94 LMICs mapped policy-relevant administrative units (for example, districts), quantify...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities is an essential human right, recognised in the Sustainable Development Goals as crucial for preventing disease improving wellbeing. Comprehensive, high-resolution estimates are important inform progress towards achieving this goal. We aimed produce geospatial of facilities. <h3>Methods</h3> used a Bayesian geostatistical model data from 600 sources across more than 88 low-income...
In estimating the global burden of cancer, adolescents and young adults with cancer are often overlooked, despite being a distinct subgroup unique epidemiology, clinical care needs, societal impact. Comprehensive estimates in (aged 15-39 years) lacking. To address this gap, we analysed results from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019, focus on outcome disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), to inform control measures adults.
Abstract A double burden of malnutrition occurs when individuals, household members or communities experience both undernutrition and overweight. Here, we show geospatial estimates overweight wasting prevalence among children under 5 years age in 105 low- middle-income countries (LMICs) from 2000 to 2017 aggregate these policy-relevant administrative units. Wasting decreased overall across LMICs between 2017, 8.4% (62.3 (55.1–70.8) million) 6.4% (58.3 (47.6–70.7) million), but is predicted...
Aim: This study examined the nexus between mother's education and nutritional status their relationships with child stunting, wasting, underweight, overweight. Methods: The data of 34,193 under-five (U-5) children from 2018 Nigeria Demographic Health Survey (NDHS) were analyzed using descriptive statistics, binary complementary log-logistic regression models. Results: prevalence overweight 36.51%, 6.92%, 21.73%, 2.05%, respectively. Compared to born mothers at least secondary education,...
