Anemia prevalence in women of reproductive age in low- and middle-income countr...
Kinyoki, D; Osgood-Zimmerman, AE; Bhattacharjee, NV; Schaeffer, LE; Lazzar-Atwood, A; Lu, D; Ewald, SB; Donkers, KM; Letourneau, ID; Collison, MAnemia is a globally widespread condition in women and is associated with reduced economic productivity and increased mortality worldwide. Here we map annual 2000–2018 geospatial estimates of anemia prevalence in women of reproductive age (15–49 years) across 82 low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), stratify anemia by severity and aggregate results to policy-relevant administrative and national levels. Addi...

Bhattacharjee, NV; Schaeffer, LE; Hay, SI; Lu, D; Schipp, MF; Lazzar-Atwood, A; Donkers, KM; Abady, GG; Abd-Allah, F; Abdelalim, A; Abebo, ZHExclusive breastfeeding (EBF)-giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life-is a component of optimal breastfeeding practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF practices are known to vary by population and comparable subnational estimates of prevalence and progress across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are required for planning policy and interventions. Here w...

El Bcheraoui, C; Wang, H; Charara, R; Khalil, I; Moradi-Lakeh, M; Afshin, A; Collison, M; Daoud, F; Chew, A; Krohn, K; Carter, A; Foreman, K; He, FObjectives: We used the results of the Global Burden of Disease 2015 study to estimate trends of HIV/AIDS burden in Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) countries between 1990 and 2015. Methods: Tailored estimation methods were used to produce final estimates of mortality. Years of life lost (YLLs) were calculated by multiplying the mortality rate by population by age-specific life expectancy. Years lived with di...
