The burden of musculoskeletal disease has increased significantly to become the second leading cause YLD (years life with disability). Osteoarthritis (OA) therapy that is often given ibuprofen (NSAID) give side effects. Therefore, it necessary conduct a literature review explore evidence how much potential these materials have for treating OA. was conducted on four databases, e.g., Pubmed, Scop...

BACKGROUND Psychiatric conditions contribute to 13%of the global burden of diseases and account for one third of years lost because of disability (YLD). Despite the high prevalence of mental health problems, primary health care (PHC) services remain ineffective in managing patients with mental health conditions. OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to determine the practices of PHC nurses in t...

Years of life lost (YLL) and years lost to disability (YLD) were measured in terms of incidence rate and number of deaths. Att...

Forty female Angora goats were selected at random from the experimental nucleus of the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (Pilcaniyeu, Argentina), with the aim of analyzing the variability of main fleece characteristics of the Angora goats and establishing an optimum sampling site. Samples were taken at the first and second shearings (12 and 18 months of age) from the following parts...

Psychiatric conditions are estimated to account globally for 21.2% of years lived with disability (YLD) and 7.1% of disability-adjusted-life-years (DALYs),1 although the actual fi gure may be even higher.2 In Singapore, 12% of the population will have at least one lifetime affective, anxiety or alcohol use disorder.3 Treatment for psychiatric conditions is broadly divided into talking therapies...

AIM To provide a comprehensive assessment of burden of selected cancers in Serbia. METHOD We calculated disability adjusted life years (DALY)-- the sum of the years of life lost (YLL) from premature mortality and the years lived with disability (YLD)--for cancers of stomach, colon and rectum, lung, breast, and cervical cancer for central Serbia and Vojvodina, Serbia and Montenegro. The obtain...

BACKGROUND Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a rare chronically debilitating disease. There are few reports on the burden of disease of MS and prevalence in China. The authors intended to estimate disease burden and prevalence of MS in Shandong Province using available epidemiologic data. METHODS Prevalence was calculated using DISMOD II software based on incidence extrapolated from hospitalization ...

We estimated the burden of diseases in Korea especially caused by major cancers using DALY (disability adjusted life year) measurement. Firstly, the burden of disease due to premature death was estimated by using YLLs (years life lost due to premature death) measurement developed by the global burden of disease study group. Secondly, for the calculation of the YLD (years lived with disability),...

Young who experience anxiety during childhood have a 3,5-fold likelihood suffering from depression or adulthood. COVID-19 has aggravated this situation, namely regarding socio-emotional competencies.
