Methodological considerations in injury burden of disease studies across Europe...
Charalampous, Periklis; Pallari, Elena; Gorasso, Vanessa; von der Lippe, Elena; Devleesschauwer, Brecht; Pires, Sara M.; Plass, Dietrich; Idavain, JaneBackground: Calculating the disease burden due to injury is complex, as it requires many methodological choices. Until now, an overview of the methodological design choices that have been made in the burden of disease (BoD) studies in injury populations is not available. The aim of this systematic literature review was to identify existing injury BoD studies undertaken across Europe and to comprehensively revie...
Burden of non-communicable disease studies in Europe: a systematic review of da...
Charalampous, Periklis; Gorasso, Vanessa; Plass, Dietrich; Pires, Sara M; von der Lippe, Elena; Mereke, Alibek; Idavain, JaneBackground: Assessment of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) resulting from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) requires specific calculation methods and input data. The aims of this study were to (i) identify existing NCD burden of disease (BoD) activities in Europe; (ii) collate information on data sources for mortality and morbidity; and (iii) provide an overview of NCD-specific methods for calculating NCD ...

Population vulnerability to COVID-19 in Europe: a burden of disease analysis
Wyper, Grant M.A.; Assunção, Ricardo; Cuschieri, Sarah; Devleesschauwer, Brecht; Fletcher, Eilidh; Haagsma, Juanita A.; Hilderink, Henk B.M.Background: Evidence has emerged showing that elderly people and those with pre-existing chronic health conditions may be at higher risk of developing severe health consequences from COVID-19. In Europe, this is of particular relevance with ageing populations living with non-communicable diseases, multi-morbidity and frailty. Published estimates of Years Lived with Disability (YLD) from the Global Burden of Dis...
