Air pollution is a major planetary health risk, with India estimated to have some of the worst levels globally. To inform action at subnational in India, we exposure air and its impact on deaths, disease burden, life expectancy every state 2017.We pollution, including ambient particulate matter defined as annual average gridded concentration PM2.5, household percentage households using solid cooking fuels corresponding across states accessible data from multiple sources part Global Burden...
Mental disorders are among the leading causes of non-fatal disease burden in India, but a systematic understanding their prevalence, burden, and risk factors is not readily available for each state India. In this report, we describe prevalence mental disorder states from 1990 to 2017.We used all accessible data multiple sources estimate disorders, years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) caused by these India 2017, as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries,...
The association of air pollution with multiple adverse health outcomes is becoming well established, but its negative economic impact less appreciated. It important to elucidate this for the states India.
The burden of diabetes is increasing rapidly in India but a systematic understanding its distribution and time trends not available for every state India. We present comprehensive analysis the heterogeneity across all states between 1990 2016.We analysed prevalence disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) from to 2016 using data sources that could be accessed as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016, assessed states. were placed four groups based on epidemiological...

In this report, we present detailed analysis how patterns major risk factors have changed India between 1990 2016.MethodsWe analysed prevalence disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) due to component causes from 2016, using accessible data sources as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2016....
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Previous efforts to report estimates of cancer incidence and mortality in India its different parts include the National Cancer Registry Programme Reports, Sample Registration System cause death findings, Incidence Five Continents Series, GLOBOCAN. We present a comprehensive picture patterns time trends burden total specific types each state estimated as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2016 because such systematic...
India has 18% of the global population and an increasing burden chronic respiratory diseases. However, a systematic understanding distribution diseases their trends over time is not readily available for all states India. Our aim was to report in heterogeneity between 1990 2016.Using accessible data from multiple sources, we estimated prevalence major deaths disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) caused by them every state 2016 as part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study...
<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> A systematic understanding of suicide mortality trends over time at the subnational level for India's 1·3 billion people, 18% global population, is not readily available. Thus, we aimed to report deaths, and heterogeneity in its distribution between states India from 1990 2016. <h3>Methods</h3> As part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2016, estimated death rates (SDRs) both sexes each state We used various data sources estimating...
<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...

A systematic understanding of population-level trends in deaths due to road injuries at the subnational level over time for India's 1·4 billion people, by age, sex, and type user is not readily available; we aimed fill this knowledge gap.As part Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study, estimated rate each state India from 1990 2017 based on several verbal autopsy data sources. We calculated number death user, assessed age sex distribution these time. Based age-standardised 2017,...
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...

Aim. To study the magnitude of default, time its causes, and final clinical outcome. Methods . Data collected in active surveys Agra is analyzed. Patients were given treatment after medical confirmation followed up. The default other outcomes recorded. Results who defaulted have comparable demographic characteristics. However, among defaulters more women (62.7% PB, 42.6% MB) seen than those completers (PB 52.7% MB 35.9%). Nerve involvement was high completers: 45.7% PB 91.3% leprosy. Overall...
C-C motif chemokine ligand 2, a gene that codes for protein involved in inflammation. Certain SNPs the CCL2 have been studied their potential associations with susceptibility to various diseases. These may affect production and function of protein, which is recruitment immune cells sites Variations influence response M. leprae infection. To investigate association ligand-2 single nucleotide polymorphisms leprosy. were analyzed total 975 leprosy patients 357 healthy controls. Of those, 577...
BACKGROUND: Lifestyle has long been associated with the development of many chronic diseases and noncommunicable (NCDs). NCDs are largely preventable through effective interventions by tackling shared modifiable risk factors, onset progress can also be delayed. Therefore, objectives this study were to determine practice lifestyle assess burden factors among students selected colleges Delhi University. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A descriptive cross-sectional was conducted 450 from two...
Background: Studies on the extent to which long-term exposure ambient particulate matter (PM) with aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5μm (PM2.5) contributes adult mortality in India are few, despite over 99% of Indians being exposed levels that World Health Organization (WHO) considers unsafe. Objective: We conducted a retrospective cohort study within Million Death Study (MDS) provide first-ever quantification national from PM2.5 1999 2014. Methods: calculated relative risks (RRs) by linking total...
Snakebite is possibly the most neglected of NTDs (Neglected Tropical Diseases). Half global deaths due to venomous snakebites, estimated at 100,000 per year, occur in India. The only representative data on snakebite available from India mortality RGI-MDS study (Registrar General India- 1 Million Death Study) and another state Bihar. Incidence for 2 districts West Bengal only. Hospital-based admissions use ASV are gross underestimates as victims rural depend more alternate treatment methods...
