Momtazmanesh, Sara; Moghaddam, Sahar Saeedi; Ghamari, Seyyed-Hadi; Rad, Elaheh Malakan; Rezaei, Negar; Shobeiri, Parnian; Aali, AmiraliBackground Updated data on chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are vital in their prevention, control, and treatment in the path to achieving the third UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a one-third reduction in premature mortality from non-communicable diseases by 2030. We provided global, regional, and national estimates of the burden of CRDs and their attributable risks from 1990 to 2019. Methods Using...
Global, regional, and national burden of diabetes from 1990 to 2021, with proje...
Ong, Kanyin Liane; Stafford, Lauryn K.; McLaughlin, Susan A.; Boyko, Edward J.; Vollset, Stein Emil; Smith, Amanda E.; Dalton, Bronte E.; Duprey, JoeDiabetes is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, and affects people regardless of country, age group, or sex. Using the most recent evidentiary and analytical framework from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD), we produced location-specific, age-specific, and sex-specific estimates of diabetes prevalence and burden from 1990 to 2021, the proportion of ty...
Health effects of dietary risks in 195 countries, 1990–2017: a systematic analy...
Afshin, Ashkan; Sur, Patrick John; Fay, Kairsten A.; Cornaby, Leslie; Ferrara, Giannina; Salama, Joseph S.; Mullany, Erin C.; Abate, Kalkidan HassenBackground Suboptimal diet is an important preventable risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs); however, its impact on the burden of NCDs has not been systematically evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the consumption of major foods and nutrients across 195 countries and to quantify the impact of their suboptimal intake on NCD mortality and morbidity. Methods By use of a comparative risk assessment...
Morbidity, mortality, and long-term consequences associated with diarrhoea from...
Khalil, Ibrahim A.; Troeger, Christopher; Rao, Puja C.; Blacker, Brigette F.; Brown, Alexandria; Brewer, Thomas G.; Colombara, Danny V.Background The protozoan Cryptosporidium is a leading cause of diarrhoea morbidity and mortality in children younger than 5 years. However , the true global burden of C ryptosporidium infection in children younger than 5 years might have been underestimated in previous quantifications because it only took account of the acute eects of diarrhoea. W e aimed to demonstrate whether there is a causal relation betwee...

Kraemer, Moritz U. G.; Faria, Nuno R.; Reiner Jr, Robert C.; Golding, Nick; Nikolay, Birgit; Stasse, Stephanie; Johansson, Michael A.; Salje, HenrikBACKGROUND: Since late 2015, an epidemic of yellow fever has caused more than 7334 suspected cases in Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, including 393 deaths. We sought to understand the spatial spread of this outbreak to optimise the use of the limited available vaccine stock. METHODS: We jointly analysed datasets describing the epidemic of yellow fever, vector suitability, human demography, and ...
