TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimated deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs; sum of years lived with disability [YLD] and years of life lost [YLL]) attributable to the independent effects of 67 risk factors and clusters of risk factors for 21 regions in 1990 and 2010.

- 09 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: A strong case for AF screening now is provided while recognizing that large randomized outcomes studies would be helpful to strengthen the evidence base.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic Review: Annual Incidence of ACL Injury and Surgery in Various Populations

TL;DR: Converting incidence rates to annual units allowed better comparisons to be made between population rates across different studies, and annual ACL incidence in amateur sporting groups was generally higher than the entire population but lower than among professional athletes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Results of 2 Decades of Injury Surveillance and Public Release of Data in the Australian Football League

TL;DR: The most frequent and prevalent injury was hamstring strain, although the rate of hamstring injuries has fallen in the past 2 seasons after a change to the structure of the interchange bench, and has also paved the way for rule changes with the primary goal of improving player safety.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cricket fast bowling workload patterns as risk factors for tendon, muscle, bone and joint injuries

TL;DR: The theory that tendons are at lowest risk with consistent workloads and susceptible to injury with sudden upgrades in workload is supported, and gradual upgrades are recommended, particularly at the start of a bowler's career to reduce the risk of bone stress injury.
