Linking animal and human health burden: challenges and opportunities
impact of poor animal health outcomes on human health represents a complex challenge. Using the disability-adjusted life year (DALY) metric as an endpoint, this article discusses how animal health outcomes ...
The importance of estimating the burden of disease from foodborne transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi
vector-borne infection, with higher mortality and more severe symptoms. We therefore suggest that it is insufficient to use source attribution alone to determine the foodborne proportion of current burden ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023
according to a coherent framework. To tackle this objective, the disease burden attributable to environmental stressors is estimated using comparative risk assessment (CRA). As this method determines the ...
The state of health in the European Union (EU-27) in 2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease study 2019
and compares them with those in 2010. Methods We used the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study estimates and 95% uncertainty intervals for the whole EU and each country to evaluate age-standardised ...
A systematic review of studies that estimated the burden of chronic non-communicable rare diseases using disability-adjusted life years
aimed to give insight into the epidemiological data sources and methodological approaches used in studies that estimated DALY s for chronic non-communicable rare diseases (CNCRD), and compare its results. ...
Standardised reporting of burden of disease studies: the STROBOD statement
study in the 1990s, has become a cornerstone for population health monitoring. Despite the widespread use of the Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY) metric, variations in methodological approaches and ...
The burden of antimicrobial resistance in livestock: A framework to estimate its impact within the Global Burden of Animal Diseases programme
antimicrobial use (AMU) and AMR ’s social and economic burden on livestock is complex to gauge. Yet, quantifying this impact can be an essential input for farm-level decision-making and, more widely, for policy ...
The direct disease burden of COVID-19 in Belgium in 2020 and 2021
of Years Lived with Disability (YLD s) and Years of Life Lost (YLL s) due to disease. DALY s allow comparing the burden of disease between countries, diseases, and over time. We used the European ...
Investigating years of life lost in Belgium, 2004-2019: A comprehensive analysis using a probabilistic redistribution approach
redistribution was developed to fit the Belgian context: redistribution using predefined ICD codes, redistribution using multiple causes of death data, internal redistribution, and redistribution to all causes. ...
Inequalities in the burden of non-communicable diseases across European countries: a systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study
time. Annual rate of change was used to determine the differences in DALY rate between 1990 and 2019 for males and females. The Gini Coefficient (GC) was used to measure the DALY rate inequalities across ...
