Variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease surveillance in Spain, 1993–2021
Background: Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) is a fatal transmissible prion disorder attributed primarily to the ingestion of meat from cattle infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), and it can also be transmitted through blood transfusions and occupational exposure in laboratories. As of July 2024, 233 deaths had been recorded in 12 countries, mostly in the United Kingdom (UK) and France. Objective: This study aimed to desc…
Association of disability with mortality in the Spanish adult non-institutionalised population
BACKGROUND: There are scant studies focused on measuring the association between disability and all-cause mortality based on large representative national samples of the community-dwelling adult population; moreover, the number of such studies which also include cause-specific mortality is yet lower. METHODS: Longitudinal cohort study that used baseline data from 162 381 adults who participated in a countrywide disability survey (2008). A nationa…
Prevalence and features of ICF-disability in Spain as captured by the 2008 National Disability Survey

Notwithstanding their unknown validity, ratings for available ICF domains may, however, be suitable for consideration under the ADL model of functional dependency, suggesting that there are approximately 500,000 persons suffering from severe/complete disability and 1,000,000 suffering from moderate disability, with half the lat…
Prevalence of disability in a composite ≥75 year-old population in Spain
Disability is highly prevalent among the Spanish elderly. Sex- and age-specific variations of disability are associated with particular disability domains
