Global, regional, and national cancer incidence, mortality, years of life lost, years lived with disability, and disability-adjusted life-years for 29 cancer groups, 1990 to 2017

Christina Fitzmaurice, +627 more
- 27 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study as discussed by the authors has been used to describe cancer burden for 29 cancer groups in 195 countries from 1990 through 2017 to provide data needed for cancer control planning, including cancer incidence, mortality, years lived with disability, years of life lost, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Global injury morbidity and mortality from 1990 to 2017: results from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017

Spencer L. James, +633 more
- 01 Oct 2020 - 
TL;DR: Injuries are an important cause of health loss globally, though mortality has declined between 1990 and 2017, and future research in injury burden should focus on prevention in high-burden populations, improving data collection and ensuring access to medical care.
Journal ArticleDOI

The global burden of cancer attributable to risk factors, 2010–19: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019

Khanh Bao Tran, +1018 more

Neutrophils, Crucial, or Harmful Immune Cells Involved in Coronavirus Infection: A Bioinformatics Study

TL;DR: Neutrophil activation and neutrophil degranulation are the most activated biological processes in the SARS infection as well as the neutrophilia, basophilia, and lymphopenia predicted by deconvolution analysis of samples, and using Serpins and Arginase inhibitors during SARS-CoV infection may be beneficial for increasing the survival of Sars-positive patients.
