Multimorbidity and frailty are associated with poorer SARS-CoV-2-related outcom...
Makovski, Tatjana T.; Ghattas, Jinane; Monnier-Besnard, Stéphanie; Cavillot, Lisa; Ambrožová, Monika; Vašinová, Barbora; Feteira-Santos, RodrigoBackground: Estimating the risks and impacts of COVID-19 for different health groups at the population level is essential for orienting public health measures. Adopting a population-based approach, we conducted a systematic review to explore: (1) the etiological role of multimorbidity and frailty in developing SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19-related short-term outcomes; and (2) the prognostic role of multimor...
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 Disease Methods: a Guide to Calculate COVID-19 Disability-Adjusted Li...
Wyper, Grant; Assunção, Ricardo; Colzani, Edoardo; Grant, Ian; Haagsma, Juanita A; Lagerweij, Giske; Von der Lippe, Elena; McDonald, Scott A.Background: To date, most efforts to understand the comparative population health impact of COVID-19 have been made using mortality-based metrics. This has intensified discussion over methodological choices; in particular, how we value the life-years prematurely lost due to COVID-19. So far, the direct impact of COVID-19 on population health has varied across countries, with wide variation in incidence and infe...
