state of evidence on neglected zoonotic diseases (NZD s) burden and start a discussion on the current understanding of the global burden of NZD s. We identified 26 priority NZD s through consulting three ...
A scoping review of burden of disease studies estimating disability-adjusted life years due to Taenia solium
of observational studies across populations and time periods; however, it is currently required due to the difficulties in diagnosing neurocysticercosis. Studies discussed that a lack of data was a key ...
Burden of disease of COVID-19: Strengthening the collaboration for national studies
comparable results that allow for interpretation of consistencies, as well as differences in the quantified direct health impact of the pandemic. Discussion: Harmonized efforts and methodologies have allowed ...
Years of life lost methods must remain fully equitable and accountable
approaches being applied to estimate the years of life lost to premature mortality (YLL), which Ferenci discusses in detail. Due to the overwhelming impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, YLL methods have become ...
Estimating risk factor attributable burden – challenges and potential solutions when using the comparative risk assessment methodology
illustrated by examples, and to discuss ways to handle them. Further, the main challenges are addressed and finally, similarities and differences between CRA and health impact assessments (HIA) are discussed ...
Burden of disease methods: A guide to calculate COVID-19 Disability-Adjusted Life Years
intensified discussion over methodological choices; in particular, how we value the life-years prematurely lost due to COVID-19 [3]. So far, the direct impact of COVID-19 on population health has varied across ...
Burden of foodborne diseases: think global, act local
input for policy. We describe the current knowledge base on burden of FBD s, highlight examples of well-established studies, and how results have been used for decision-making. We discuss challenges in ...
Estimates of the 2015 global and regional disease burden from four foodborne metals- arsenic, cadmium, lead and methylmercury
discusses them in the context of the World Health Organization’s initiative to estimate the global burden of foodborne disease. The results indicate that in 2015, ingestion of arsenic, methylmercury, lead, ...
Quantifying burden of disease to support public health policy in Belgium: opportunities and constraints
diseases and risk factors and the monitoring of public health over time. Discussion Evidence on the disease burden in Belgium, expressed as DALY s, is available from international and national efforts. ...
