Global burden of 288 causes of death and life expectancy decomposition in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1990–2021: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease…
BACKGROUND: Regular, detailed reporting on population health by underlying cause of death is fundamental for public health decision making. Cause-specific estimates of mortality and the subsequent effects on life expectancy worldwide are valuable metrics to gauge progress in reducing mortality rates. These estimates are particularly important following large-scale mortality spikes, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. When systematically analysed, mort…
Global age-sex-specific mortality, life expectancy, and population estimates in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1950–2021, and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic: A compr…
BACKGROUND: Estimates of demographic metrics are crucial to assess levels and trends of population health outcomes. The profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on populations worldwide has underscored the need for timely estimates to understand this unprecedented event within the context of long-term population health trends. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021 provides new demographic estimates for 204 cou…
Vitamin A supplementation among 9-59 month old children in India: Geospatial perspectives and implications for targeted coverage
Introduction Vitamin A supplementation (VAS) is yet to reach all Indian children aged 9-59 months, despite guidelines for universal coverage. This study mapped geospatial patterns underlying VAS coverage across two policy-relevant administrative unit levels (states and districts) in India. The relationship between spatial distribution of VAS coverage and vitamin A deficiency (VAD) prevalence was also investigated. Methods The study draws on natio…
Gaps in the coverage of vitamin K 1 prophylaxis among newborns in India: Insights from secondary analysis of data from the Health Management Information System
Objective: Despite operational guidelines, anecdotal evidence suggests that newborn vitamin K 1 prophylaxis is not practiced routinely in India. This study determined the coverage of vitamin K 1 prophylaxis among newborns in the country. Design: Nationwide cross-sectional data on live births and newborns receiving vitamin K 1 during the 2019–2020 reporting period were abstracted from the Health Management Information System (HMIS). The coverage e…
