<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....
BackgroundThe Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2017 (GBD 2017) includes a comprehensive assessment incidence, prevalence, years lived with disability (YLDs) for 354 causes in 195 countries territories from 1990 to 2017. Previous GBD studies have shown how the decline mortality rates 2016 has led an increase life expectancy, ageing global population, expansion non-fatal burden disease injury. These also substantial portion world's population experiences health loss...
<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...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Regularly updated data on stroke and its pathological types, including their incidence, prevalence, mortality, disability, risk factors, epidemiological trends, are important for evidence-based care planning resource allocation. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) aims to provide a standardised comprehensive measurement these metrics at global, regional, national levels. <h3>Methods</h3> We applied GBD 2019 analytical tools...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Health system planning requires careful assessment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) epidemiology, but data for morbidity and mortality this are scarce or non-existent in many countries. We estimated the global, regional, national burden CKD, as well cardiovascular gout attributable to impaired function, Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study 2017. use term CKD refer that can be directly attributed all stages we function additional risk from...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Neurological disorders are increasingly recognised as major causes of death and disability worldwide. The aim this analysis from the Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2016 is to provide most comprehensive up-to-date estimates global, regional, national burden neurological disorders. <h3>Methods</h3> We estimated prevalence, incidence, deaths, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs; sum years life lost [YLLs] lived with [YLDs]) by...
BackgroundThe Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017 comparative risk assessment (CRA) is a comprehensive approach to factor quantification that offers useful tool for synthesising evidence on risks risk–outcome associations. With each annual GBD study, we update the CRA incorporate improved methods, new pairs, data exposure levels associations.MethodsWe used framework developed previous iterations estimate trends in exposure, attributable deaths,...
BackgroundHow long one lives, how many years of life are spent in good and poor health, the population's state health leading causes disability change over time all have implications for policy, planning, provision services. We comparatively assessed patterns trends healthy expectancy (HALE), which quantifies number expected to be lived complementary measure disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), a composite disease burden capturing both premature mortality prevalence severity ill 359...
Stroke is a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide the economic costs treatment post-stroke care are substantial. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) provides systematic, comparable method quantifying health loss by disease, age, sex, year, location to provide information systems policy makers on more than 300 causes disease injury, including stroke. results presented here estimates burden due overall stroke ischaemic haemorrhagic from GBD 2016.
Cancer and other noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are now widely recognized as a threat to global development. The latest United Nations high-level meeting on NCDs reaffirmed this observation also highlighted the slow progress in 2011 Political Declaration Prevention Control of Noncommunicable Diseases third Sustainable Development Goal. Lack situational analyses, priority setting, budgeting have been identified major obstacles achieving these goals. All common that they require information...
Diabetes is one of the leading causes death and disability worldwide, affects people regardless country, age group, or sex. Using most recent evidentiary analytical framework from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD), we produced location-specific, age-specific, sex-specific estimates diabetes prevalence burden 1990 to 2021, proportion type 1 2 in attributable selected risk factors, projections through 2050.
The burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rising globally, with substantial variation in levels and trends different countries regions. Understanding these geographical differences crucial for formulating effective strategies preventing treating IBD. We report the prevalence, mortality, overall IBD 195 territories between 1990 2017, based on data from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017.We modelled mortality due to using a standard Cause Death Ensemble...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Previous attempts to characterise the burden of chronic respiratory diseases have focused only on specific disease conditions, such as obstructive pulmonary (COPD) or asthma. In this study, we aimed globally, providing a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis geographical time trends from 1990 2017. <h3>Methods</h3> Using data Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017, estimated prevalence, morbidity, mortality attributable through an...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Accurate and up-to-date assessment of demographic metrics is crucial for understanding a wide range social, economic, public health issues that affect populations worldwide. The Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 produced updated comprehensive assessments the key indicators fertility, mortality, migration, population 204 countries territories selected subnational locations from 1950 to 2019. <h3>Methods</h3> 8078 country-years...
<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> Cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases (collectively referred to as cirrhosis in this paper) are a major cause of morbidity mortality globally, although the burden underlying causes differ across locations demographic groups. We report on results from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017 its trends since 1990, by cause, sex, age, for 195 countries territories. <h3>Methods</h3> used data vital registrations, registration...
Detailed, comprehensive, and timely reporting on population health by underlying causes of disability premature death is crucial to understanding responding complex patterns disease injury burden over time across age groups, sexes, locations. The availability estimates can promote evidence-based interventions that enable public researchers, policy makers, other professionals implement strategies mitigate diseases. It also facilitate more rigorous monitoring progress towards national...
