BACKGROUND To estimate the disability-adjusted life years (DALY) in a nationwide representative sample of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. The effects of drug-based therapy and risk factors for osteoporotic bone fractures on DALY losses were also explored. METHODS DALY were estimated based on participant's clinical characteristics and Health-Related Quality-of-Life (HRQoL) data obtaine...
متن کاملCalculating disability-adjusted-life-years lost (DALYs) in discrete-time
Disability-adjusted-life-years lost (DALYs) is a common outcome metric for cost-effectiveness analyses, and the equations used for such calculations have been presented previously by Fox-Rushby and Hanson (see, e.g., "Health Policy and Planning 16:326-331, 2001"). While the equations are clear, the logic behind them is opaque at best for a large share of public health practitioners and students...

متن کاملSeverity of injuries in different modes of transport, expressed with disability-adjusted life years (DALYs)
BACKGROUND Health impact assessment (HIA) studies are increasingly predicting the health effects of mode shifts in traffic. The challenge for such studies is to combine the health effects, caused by injuries, with the disease driven health effects, and to express the change in the health with a common health indicator. Disability-adjusted life year (DALY) combines years lived disabled or injure...
متن کاملDevelopment of Methodology for Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) Calculation Based on Real-Life Data
BACKGROUND Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) have the advantage that effects on total health instead of on a specific disease incidence or mortality can be estimated. Our aim was to address several methodological points related to the computation of DALYs at an individual level in a follow-up study. METHODS DALYs were computed for 33,507 men and women aged 20-70 years when participating ...
