GBD 2017: Findings From the Global Burden of Disease Study
2019
This brief from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation examines some of the main health conditions around the word, as part of the continued 2017 Global Burden of Diseases Study (GBD). It summarizes global trends in mortality and life expectancy, causes of death, disability, fertility, future trends, and much more. A combination of charts and maps presents this information in a variety of forms and pertaining to many populations and geographic areas. The brief culminates with describing progress and challenges in pursuing health-related Sustainable Development Goals, and includes information where study can be downloaded.
Led by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington, GBD is a global effort with researchers from over 150 countries and territories. IHME and other partnering organizations have developed numerous resources to disseminate and visualize the findings of the GBD studies, data visualizations and interactives, country profiles, policy reports, research articles, infographics, and the GBD Results Tool, which allows users to search GBD data.
