The Global Burden of Disease Study: Implications for Neurology

Menken, Matthew, Munsat, Theodore L., Toole, James F.·2000·Archives of Neurology

Abstract

Because of the epidemiological transition, the global burden of illness has changed. Several factors have contributed to this change, including improvements in maternal and child health, increasing age of populations, and newly recognized disorders of the nervous system. It is now evident that neurologic disorders have emerged as priority health problems worldwide. This is reflected in the Global Burden of Disease Study, jointly published by the World Health Organization and other groups. The proportionate share of the total global burden of disease resulting from neuropsychiatric disorders is projected to rise to 14.7% by 2020. Although neurologic and psychiatric disorders comprise only 1.4% of all deaths, they account for a remarkable 28% of all years of life lived with a disability. This study provides compelling evidence that one cannot assess the neurologic health status of a population by examining mortality statistics alone. Health ministries worldwide must prioritize neurologic disorders, and neurologists must be prepared to provide care for increased numbers of people individually and in population groups.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
