BACKGROUND Setting priorities is important in health research given the limited resources available for research. Various guidelines exist to assist in the priority setting process; however, priority setting still faces significant challenges such as the clear ranking of identified priorities. The World Health Organization (WHO) proposed a Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY)-based model to ran...
BACKGROUND Alcohol consumption is a major risk factor for the burden of disease globally. This burden is estimated using Relative Risk (RR) functions for alcohol from meta-analyses that use data from all countries; however, for Russia and surrounding countries, country-specific risk data may need to be used. The objective of this paper is to compare the estimated burden of alcohol consumption c...
BACKGROUND There is increasing recognition of stroke as an important contributor to childhood morbidity and mortality. Current estimates of global childhood stroke burden and its temporal trends are sparse. Accurate and up-to-date estimates of childhood stroke burden are important for planning research and the resulting evidence-based strategies for stroke prevention and management. OBJECTIVE...
Current and future Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) of Salmonella and Campylobacter in Belgium
Salmonellosis and campylobacteriosis are major foodborne diseases caused by consumption of contaminated raw pork or poultry. Symptomatic disease is mainly characterized by gastroenteritis, although immunoreactive complications also occur, especially among the immunocompromised. Although these diseases cause the highest number of confirmed foodborne bacterial infections in Belgium, their real an...
Most studies on global health inequality consider unequal health care and socio-economic conditions but neglect inequality in the production of health knowledge relevant to addressing disease burden. We demonstrate this inequality and identify likely causes. Using disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 111 prominent medical conditions, assessed globally and nationally by the World Health Or...
Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs)—a frequent indicator for assessment of the relative eff ects of public-health interventions—explicitly incorporate disability. This Viewpoint will argue, however, that the notion of disability embodied in DALYs does not accord with that in WHO’s International Classifi cation of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). Underlying this inconsistency is the...
OBJECTIVE To estimate the impact of Argentine policies to reduce trans fatty acids (TFA) on coronary heart disease (CHD), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and associated health-care costs. METHODS We estimated the baseline intake of TFA before 2004 to be 1.5% of total energy intake. We built a policy model including baseline intake of TFA, the oils and fats used to replace artificial TF...
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess alcohol consumption and alcohol-attributed disease burden by DALYs (disability adjusted life years) in the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) between 1990 and 2013, and explore to what extent these countries have implemented evidence-based alcohol policies during the same time period. METHODS A comparative risk assessment approach and...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE An important input to decision-making and health planning is a consistent and comparative description of the population health status. The purpose of this study was to describe the burden of disease in the Region of Valencia (Spain). MATERIAL AND METHODS Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were calculated and divided into years of life lost (YLLs) and years lived w...
OBJECTIVES To systematically categorise cancer research investment awarded to United Kingdom (UK) institutions in the period 2000-2013 and to estimate research investment relative to disease burden as measured by mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and years lived with disability (YLDs). DESIGN Systematic analysis of all open-access data. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Public and ph...
