Estimates of global seasonal influenza-associated respiratory mortality: a modelling study

A. Danielle Iuliano, +138 more
- 13 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: These global influenza-associated respiratory mortality estimates are higher than previously reported, suggesting that previous estimates might have underestimated disease burden.
Journal ArticleDOI

Worldwide trends in hypertension prevalence and progress in treatment and control from 1990 to 2019: a pooled analysis of 1201 population-representative studies with 104 million participants

Bin Zhou, +1144 more
- 11 Sep 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a Bayesian hierarchical model was used to estimate the prevalence of hypertension and the proportion of people with hypertension who had a previous diagnosis (detection), who were taking medication for hypertension (treatment), and whose hypertension was controlled to below 140/90 mm Hg (control).
Journal ArticleDOI

Ambient Particulate Air Pollution and Daily Mortality in 652 Cities

TL;DR: The data show independent associations between short-term exposure to PM10 and PM2.5 and daily all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality in more than 600 cities across the globe, and reinforce the evidence of a link between mortality and PM concentration established in regional and local studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global, regional, and national burden of mortality associated with non-optimal ambient temperatures from 2000 to 2019: a three-stage modelling study

Qi Zhao, +80 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the global, regional, and national mortality burden associated with non-optimal ambient temperatures was evaluated using time-series data collected from 750 locations in 43 countries and five meta-predictors.
