<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> In an era of shifting global agendas and expanded emphasis on non-communicable diseases injuries along with communicable diseases, sound evidence trends by cause at the national level is essential. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) provides a systematic scientific assessment published, publicly available, contributed data incidence, prevalence, mortality for mutually exclusive collectively exhaustive list injuries....
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Rigorous analysis of levels and trends in exposure to leading risk factors quantification their effect on human health are important identify where public is making progress which cases current efforts inadequate. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 provides a standardised comprehensive assessment the magnitude factor exposure, relative risk, attributable burden disease. <h3>Methods</h3> GBD estimated mortality, years life...
BackgroundAchieving universal health coverage (UHC) involves all people receiving the services they need, of high quality, without experiencing financial hardship. Making progress towards UHC is a policy priority for both countries and global institutions, as highlighted by agenda UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) WHO's Thirteenth General Programme Work (GPW13).

BackgroundSustainable Development Goal 3.2 has targeted elimination of preventable child mortality, reduction neonatal death to less than 12 per 1000 livebirths, and children younger 5 years 25 for each country by 2030. To understand current rates, recent trends, potential trajectories mortality the next decade, we present Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 findings all-cause cause-specific in age, with multiple scenarios 2030 that include consideration effects...
Since 2000, many countries have achieved considerable success in improving child survival, but localized progress remains unclear. To inform efforts towards United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3.2-to end preventable deaths by 2030-we need consistently estimated data at the subnational level regarding mortality rates and trends. Here we quantified, for period 2000-2017, variation number of neonates, infants children under 5 years age within 99 low- middle-income using a geostatistical...
Better evaluation of existing health programmes, appropriate policy making against emerging threats, and reducing inequalities in Iran rely on a comprehensive national subnational breakdown the burden diseases, injuries, risk factors.In this systematic analysis, we present estimates disease using Global Burden Disease Study 2019. We report trends demographics, all-cause cause-specific mortality, as well years life lost (YLLs), lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life-years...
Documentation of patterns and long-term trends in mortality young people, which reflect huge changes demographic social determinants adolescent health, enables identification global investment priorities for this age group.

Anemia is a globally widespread condition in women and associated with reduced economic productivity increased mortality worldwide. Here we map annual 2000-2018 geospatial estimates of anemia prevalence reproductive age (15-49 years) across 82 low- middle-income countries (LMICs), stratify by severity aggregate results to policy-relevant administrative national levels. Additionally, provide subnational disparity analyses comprehensive overview inequalities within these predict progress...
Abstract The safe, highly effective measles vaccine has been recommended globally since 1974, yet in 2017 there were more than 17 million cases of and 83,400 deaths children under 5 years old, 99% both occurred low- middle-income countries (LMICs) 1–4 .

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...
