Global alcohol exposure between 1990 and 2017 and forecasts until 2030: a modelling study

TLDR
Based on these data, global goals for reducing the harmful use of alcohol are unlikely to be achieved, and known effective and cost-effective policy measures should be implemented to reduce alcohol exposure.

Alcohol use in times of the COVID 19: Implications for monitoring and policy.

TL;DR: Monitoring consumption levels both during and after the CO VID‐19 pandemic will be necessary to better understand the effects of COVID‐19 on different groups, as well as to distinguish them from those arising from existing alcohol control policies.

Global burden and trends in premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer: a population-based study

TL;DR: Evidence of a rising burden of both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer worldwide is provided, although early diagnosis and access to treatment remain crucial in low-income and middle-income countries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alcohol use disorders

TL;DR: Clinical interventions for alcohol use disorders should be embedded in a supportive environment, which can be bolstered by the creation of alcohol control policies aimed at reducing the overall level of consumption.

National, regional, and global burdens of disease from 2000 to 2016 attributable to alcohol use: a comparative risk assessment study.

TL;DR: As a leading risk factor for the burden of disease, alcohol use disproportionately affects people in low HDI countries and young people, and cost-effective local and national policy measures that can reduce alcohol use and the resultingurden of disease are needed, especially in low-income and middle-income countries.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factor study 2013 (GBD 2013) as discussed by the authors provides a timely opportunity to update the comparative risk assessment with new data for exposure, relative risks, and evidence on the appropriate counterfactual risk distribution.

TL;DR: The comparative risk assessment framework developed for previous iterations of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 was used to estimate attributable deaths, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), and trends in exposure by age group, sex, year, and geography for 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational risks or clusters of risks from 1990 to 2015.

TL;DR: At a global level, DALYs and HALE continue to show improvements and the importance of continued health interventions, which has changed in most locations in pace with the gross domestic product per person, education, and family planning.

Time Series Analysis by State Space Methods

TL;DR: This excellent text provides a comprehensive treatment of the state space approach to time series analysis, where observations are regarded as made up of distinct components such as trend, seasonal, regression elements and disturbence terms, each of which is modelled separately.
