<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...

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...
Background: Psoriasis is a common, chronic, inflammatory, debilitating, systemic disease with great impact on healthcare systems worldwide. As targeted therapies have transformed the therapeutic landscape, updated estimates of Global Burden Disease (GBD) imposed by psoriasis are necessary in order to evaluate effects past health care policies and orient inform new national international strategies. Methods: Data were extracted from GBD 2019 study, which collates systematic review relevant...
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. We aimed to analyse data on the number deaths, years life lost, rates by sex group people aged 10-24 204 countries territories from 1950 2019 use estimates Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019.
Decades of steady improvements in life expectancy Europe slowed down from around 2011, well before the COVID-19 pandemic, for reasons which remain disputed. We aimed to assess how changes risk factors and cause-specific death rates different European countries related those during pandemic. used data methods Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2021 compare at birth, causes death, population exposure 16 Economic Area (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany,...
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.
Objectives: We aimed at describing the attitudes towards influenza vaccination and a potential COVID-19 vaccine in Italy. Methods: A nationally representative survey based on 1055 Italians aged 15-85 years was conducted September 16-28, 2020.

Abstract Background Elexacaftor‐tezacaftor‐ivacaftor (ETI) is a highly effective cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulating therapy for people with CF and at least one F508del variant. However, there limited data about the safety efficacy of this in pediatric populations real‐world settings. This study aimed evaluating effectiveness, tolerability, ETI children CF.
