Hidden in plain sight
The fourth United Nations High-Level Meeting on the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases (NCDs) and Promotion of Mental Health and Well-Being developed a timely Political Declaration intended to accelerate progress among Member States towards the targets of Sustainable Development Goal 3.4. The Declaration emphasises appropriate cross-cutting actions for prevention and control of NCDs generally, yet over the consultation period, it …
Measuring education in the context of health inequalities
Associations between the composition of functional tooth units and nutrient intake in older men
Objective: Inadequate nutrient intakes have been linked with poor dentition in older adults. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between the composition of functional tooth units (FTU) and nutrient intakes in older men. Design: A cross-sectional study with a standardised validated diet history assessment and comprehensive oral health assessments. FTU were categorised by dentition type: (i) Group A (Natural FTU Only), (ii) Gr…
Health system strengthening is needed to respond to the burden of pain in low- and middle-income countries and to support healthy ageing
Although pain is experienced across the life course, the prevalence, particularly of musculoskeletal pain, increases with age Musculoskeletal pain disproportionately affects people in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) and the associated disease burden continues to rise About 25% of the general population in LMICs experience chronic musculoskeletal pain, and this estimate increases by two to four times among working populations Musculoskelet…
The Global Burden of Musculoskeletal Pain—Where to From Here
To summarize the current understanding of the global burden of musculoskeletal pain–related conditions, consider the process of evidence generation and the steps to generate global pain estimates, identify key gaps in our understanding, and propose an agenda to address these gaps, we performed a narrative review. In the 2010 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD), which broadened the scope of musculoskeletal conditions that were included over previ…
Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 354 diseases and injuries for 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017
BACKGROUND: The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2017 (GBD 2017) includes a comprehensive assessment of incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) for 354 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1990 to 2017. Previous GBD studies have shown how the decline of mortality rates from 1990 to 2016 has led to an increase in life expectancy, an ageing global population, and an expansion of the non-fatal…
Global, regional, and national disability-adjusted life-years (Dalys) for 333 diseases and injuries and healthy life expectancy (Hale) for 195 countries and territories, 1990–2016
BACKGROUND: Measurement of changes in health across locations is useful to compare and contrast changing epidemiological patterns against health system performance and identify specific needs for resource allocation in research, policy development, and programme decision making. Using the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016, we drew from two widely used summary measures to monitor such changes in population health: di…
Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990–2013
Global, regional, and national disability-adjusted life years (Dalys) for 306 diseases and injuries and healthy life expectancy (Hale) for 188 countries, 1990–2013
Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 301 acute and chronic diseases and injuries in 188 countries, 1990–2013
Sociodemographic and Health Characteristics, Rather Than Primary Care Supply, are Major Drivers of Geographic Variation in Preventable Hospitalizations in Australia
BACKGROUND: Geographic rates of preventable hospitalization are used internationally as an indicator of accessibility and quality of primary care. Much research has correlated the indicator with the supply of primary care services, yet multiple other factors may influence these admissions. OBJECTIVE: To quantify the relative contributions of the supply of general practitioners (GPs) and personal sociodemographic and health characteristics, to geo…
High risk prescribing in older adults
The availability of large-scale data is useful to identify opportunities for improving prescribing, and health in older adults. The size of the 45 and Up Study, along with linkage to health databases provides an important opportunity to investigate the relationship between high risk prescribing and adverse outcomes in a real-world population of older adults
