Background— The global burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. Methods and Results— We systematically reviewed population-based studies AF published from 1980 to 2010 the 21 Global Burden Disease regions estimate global/regional prevalence, incidence, morbidity mortality related (DisModMR software). Of 377 potential identified, 184 met prespecified eligibility criteria. estimated number individuals with globally in was 33.5 million (20.9 men [95% uncertainty interval (UI), 19.5–22.2...
Exposure to fine-particulate air pollution has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality, suggesting that sustained reductions in exposure should result improved life expectancy. This study directly evaluated the changes expectancy differential fine particulate occurred United States during 1980s 1990s.We compiled data on expectancy, socioeconomic status, demographic characteristics for 211 county units 51 U.S. metropolitan areas matching late 1970s early 1990s 2000s. Regression...
Estimating the burden of disease attributable to long-term exposure fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in ambient air requires knowledge both shape and magnitude relative risk (RR) function. However, adequate direct evidence identify mortality RR functions at high concentrations observed many places world is lacking.We developed over entire global range for causes adults: ischemic heart (IHD), cerebrovascular (stroke), chronic obstructive pulmonary (COPD), lung cancer (LC). We also incidence...
BackgroundLow haemoglobin concentrations and anaemia are important risk factors for the health development of women children. We estimated trends in distributions concentration prevalence severe young children pregnant non-pregnant between 1995 2011.MethodsWe obtained data about aged 6–59 months childbearing age (15–49 years) from 257 population-representative sources 107 countries worldwide. used health, nutrition, household surveys; summary statistics WHO's Vitamin Mineral Nutrition...
Projections of future mortality and life expectancy are needed to plan for health social services pensions. Our aim was forecast national age-specific using an approach that takes into account the uncertainty related choice forecasting model.We developed ensemble 21 models, all which probabilistically contributed towards final projections. We applied this project 2030 in 35 industrialised countries with high-quality vital statistics data. used death rates calculate at birth age 65 years,...
High sodium intake increases blood pressure, a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but the effects of on global mortality are uncertain.
