Sartorius, B; VanderHeide, JD; Yang, M; Goosmann, EA; Hon, J; Haeuser, E; Cork, MA; Perkins, S; Jahagirdar, D; Schaeffer, LE; Serfes, AL; LeGrand, KEBackground. High-resolution estimates of HIV burden across space and time provide an important tool for tracking and monitoring the progress of prevention and control efforts and assist with improving the precision and efficiency of targeting efforts. We aimed to assess HIV incidence and HIV mortality for all second-level administrative units across sub-Saharan Africa. Methods. In this modelling study, we devel...

Cork, MA; Henry, NJ; Watson, S; Croneberger, AJ; Baumann, M; Letourneau, ID; Yang, M; Serfes, AL; Abbas, J; Abbasi, N; Abbastabar, H; Abreu, LGBackground: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a public health priority in Latin America. While the burden of HIV is historically concentrated in urban areas and high-risk groups, subnational estimates that cover multiple countries and years are missing. This paucity is partially due to incomplete vital registration (VR) systems and statistical challenges related to estimating mortality rates in areas w...

James, SL; Castle, CD; Dingels, ZV; Fox, JT; Hamilton, EB; Liu, Z; S, Roberts, NL; Sylte, DO; Henry, NJ; LeGrand, KE; Abdelalim, A; Abdoli, ABackground Past research in population health trends has shown that injuries form a substantial burden of population health loss. Regular updates to injury burden assessments are critical. We report Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2017 Study estimates on morbidity and mortality for all injuries. Methods We reviewed results for injuries from the GBD 2017 study. GBD 2017 measured injury-specific mortality and year...
