Health in the sustainable development goals: ready for a paradigm shift?

Kent Buse, +1 more
- 21 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: It is argued that success in realizing the agenda requires a paradigm shift in the way the authors address global health to surmount five challenges and neither the international community nor the global health community truly appreciates the extent of the shift required.

Cost-effectiveness of surgery and its policy implications for global health: a systematic review and analysis.

Tiffany E. Chao, +13 more
- 01 Jun 2014 - 
TL;DR: Quantification of the economic value of surgery provides a strong argument for the expansion of global surgery's role in the global health movement, and economic value should not be the only argument for resource allocation.

TL;DR: In highly developed countries, prevalence of blindness and MSVI has been reduced by 50% and 38%, respectively, and the number of blind people and people with MSVI decreased by 17.4% and 12.6, respectively, even with the increasing number of older people in the population.

Aetiology-Specific Estimates of the Global and Regional Incidence and Mortality of Diarrhoeal Diseases Commonly Transmitted through Food

Sara Monteiro Pires, +8 more
- 03 Dec 2015 - 
TL;DR: Diarrhoeal diseases caused by these nine pathogens are responsible for a large disease burden, particularly in children, and aetiology-specific burden estimates can inform efforts to reduce diarrhoealing diseases commonly transmitted through foods.

Rafael Lozano, +195 more
- 15 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2010 aimed to estimate annual deaths for the world and 21 regions between 1980 and 2010 for 235 causes, with uncertainty intervals (UIs), separately by age and sex, using the Cause of Death Ensemble model.

The global burden of disease: a comprehensive assessment of mortality and disability from diseases injuries and risk factors in 1990 and projected to 2020.

Christopher J L Murray, +1 more
TL;DR: This is the first in a planned series of 10 volumes that will attempt to "summarize epidemiological knowledge about all major conditions and most risk factors" and use historical trends in main determinants to project mortality and disease burden forward to 2020.

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 - 
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.

Christopher J L Murray, +1 more
- 17 May 1997 - 
TL;DR: The three leading contributors to the burden of disease are communicable and perinatal disorders affecting children, and the substantial burdens of neuropsychiatric disorders and injuries are under-recognised.
