<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Suboptimal diet is an important preventable risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs); however, its impact on the burden of NCDs has not been systematically evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate consumption major foods and nutrients across 195 countries quantify their suboptimal intake NCD mortality morbidity. <h3>Methods</h3> By use a comparative assessment approach, we estimated proportion disease-specific attributable each dietary (also...
The burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remains unclear in many regions the world. GBD (Global Burden Disease) 2015 study integrated data on disease incidence, prevalence, and mortality to produce consistent, up-to-date estimates for burden. CVD was estimated from vital registration verbal autopsy data. prevalence using modeling software health surveys, prospective cohorts, system administrative data, registries. Years lived with disability (YLD) were by multiplying weights. life lost...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma are common diseases with a heterogeneous distribution worldwide. Here, we present methods risk estimates for COPD from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors (GBD) 2015 study. The GBD study provides annual updates on deaths, prevalence, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), summary measure fatal non-fatal outcomes, over 300 injuries, 188 countries 1990 to most recent year.
Neurological disorders are now the leading source of disability globally, and ageing is increasing burden neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease. We aimed to determine global disease between 1990 2016 identify trends enable appropriate public health, medical, scientific responses.Through a systematic analysis epidemiological studies, we estimated global, regional, country-specific prevalence years life lived with for from 2016. proportion mild, moderate, severe on basis...
BackgroundThe number of individuals living with dementia is increasing, negatively affecting families, communities, and health-care systems around the world. A successful response to these challenges requires an accurate understanding disease burden. We aimed present first detailed analysis global prevalence, mortality, overall burden as captured by Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors (GBD) Study 2016, highlight most important messages for clinicians neurologists.MethodsGBD 2016...
Comparable data on the global and country-specific burden of neurological disorders their trends are crucial for health-care planning resource allocation. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors (GBD) Study provides such information but does not routinely aggregate results that interest to clinicians specialising in conditions. In this systematic analysis, we quantified disease due 2015 its relationship with country development level.We estimated prevalence, mortality,...
The scale-up of tobacco control, especially after the adoption Framework Convention for Tobacco Control, is a major public health success story. Nonetheless, smoking remains leading risk early death and disability worldwide, therefore continues to require sustained political commitment. Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) offers robust platform through which global, regional, national progress toward achieving smoking-related targets can be assessed.We synthesised 2818...
<h3>Importance</h3> Liver cancer is among the leading causes of deaths globally. The most common for liver include hepatitis B virus (HBV) and C (HCV) infection alcohol use. <h3>Objective</h3> To report results Global Burden Disease (GBD) 2015 study on primary incidence, mortality, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) 195 countries or territories from 1990 to 2015, present global, regional, national estimates burden attributable HBV, HCV, alcohol, an "other" group that encompasses residual...
Lower respiratory infections are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors (GBD) Study 2016, provides an up-to-date analysis burden lower in 195 countries. This study assesses cases, deaths, aetiologies spanning past 26 years shows how infection has changed people all ages.
The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2016 provides an up-to-date analysis the burden diarrhoea in 195 countries. This study assesses cases, deaths, aetiologies 1990-2016 how has changed people all ages.We modelled mortality with a Bayesian hierarchical modelling platform that evaluates wide range covariates model types on basis vital registration verbal autopsy data. We incidence compartmental meta-regression tool enforces association between prevalence,...
The Global Burden of Diseases (GBD), Injuries, and Risk Factors study used the disability-adjusted life year (DALY) to quantify burden diseases, injuries, risk factors. This paper provides an overview injury estimates from 2013 update GBD, with detailed information on incidence, mortality, DALYs rates change 1990 for 26 causes injury, globally, by region country.Injury mortality was estimated using extensive GBD database, corrections ill-defined cause death ensemble modelling tool. Morbidity...
Government and nongovernmental organizations need national global estimates on the descriptive epidemiology of common oral conditions for policy planning evaluation. The aim this component Global Burden Disease study was to produce prevalence, incidence, years lived with disability from 1990 2017 by sex, age, countries. In addition, reports socioeconomic pattern in burden standard World Bank classification economies as well Socio-demographic Index. findings show that remain a substantial...
Seizures and their consequences contribute to the burden of epilepsy because they can cause health loss (premature mortality residual disability). Data on are needed for health-care planning resource allocation. The aim this study was quantify due by age, sex, year, location using data from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study.We assessed in 195 countries territories 1990 2016. measured as deaths, prevalence, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs; a summary measure defined...
Oesophageal cancer is a common and often fatal that has two main histological subtypes: oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma adenocarcinoma. Updated statistics on the incidence mortality of cancer, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) caused by disease, can assist policy makers in allocating resources for prevention, treatment, care cancer. We report latest estimates these 195 countries territories between 1990 2017, age, sex, Socio-demographic Index (SDI), using data from Global Burden...
