Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 328 diseases and injuries for 195 countries, 1990–2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016
As mortality rates decline, life expectancy increases, and populations age, non-fatal outcomes of diseases
and injuries are becoming a larger component of the global burden of disease. The Global Burden of Diseases,
Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016 (GBD 2016) provides a comprehensive assessment of prevalence, incidence,
and years lived with disability (YLDs) for 328 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1990 to 2016.
