Burden of disease attributable to risk factors in European countries: A scoping literature review
that the methods used to perform CRA varied substantially across independent European BoD studies. While there were some methodological choices that were more common than others, we did not observe ...
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 ...
