Global Food Security

TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate that the annual cost of global hunger of up to 1.9 trillion international dollars may be better suited to illustrate the magnitude of the remaining problem than focusing on proxy indicators such as food availability or selected head count figures such as stunting rates.

Fine resolution mapping of population age-structures for health and development applications.

Victor A. Alegana, +7 more

Journal of the Royal Society Interface

TL;DR: This work uses nationally representative household surveys and their cluster locations to predict the proportion of the under-five population in 1 × 1 km using a Bayesian hierarchical spatio-temporal model and shows that land cover, travel time to major settlements, night-time lights and vegetation index were good predictors and that accounting for fine-scale variation can result in significant differences in health metrics.

Years lived with disability (YLDs) for 1160 sequelae of 289 diseases and injuries 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010

Theo Vos, +363 more

- 15 Dec 2012 -

The Lancet

TL;DR: Prevalence and severity of health loss were weakly correlated and age-specific prevalence of YLDs increased with age in all regions and has decreased slightly from 1990 to 2010, but population growth and ageing have increased YLD numbers and crude rates over the past two decades.
