TL;DR: The first global, high-resolution map of P falciparum malaria mortality and the first global prevalence and incidence maps since 2010 are presented and illustrated the rapid decline in burden between 2005 and 2017.

TL;DR: Global trends were driven by reductions in mortality owing to infectious, nutritional, and neonatal disorders, which in the aggregate led to a relative increase in the importance of noncommunicable diseases and injuries in explaining global disease burden.

TL;DR: Large disparities in total burden of CVD persist between US states despite marked improvements in CVD burden, and increases in risk-deleted CVD DALY rates between 2006 and 2016 in 16 states suggest additional unmeasured risks beyond these traditional factors.

TL;DR: These results support global monitoring systems and can inform the optimisation of diagnosis and treatment where P vivax has most impact, and form the malaria estimates for the Global Burden of Disease 2017 study.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed trends in the fatal and non-fatal burden of tuberculosis over the past 25 years for 195 countries and territories, and assessed how observed tuberculosis incidence, prevalence and mortality differed from expected trends as predicted by the Socio-demographic Index (SDI), a composite indicator based on income per capita, average years of schooling and total fertility rate.
