The WHO Advisory Committee on Health Research (ACHR), through its DALY Review Group, has recently criticized the use of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). To suggest that the use of DALYs should be discouraged as an aid in health resource allocation may, however, be premature, since it enhances informed debate on the social values that influence resource allocation, identifies health probl...
Introduction Bad water, sanitation and personal hygiene combined are after malnutrition globally considered as the major treats to human health. According to Michaud et al (2001) malnutrition accounted for nearly 6 million deaths (11.7% overall) and 220 million DALYs (15.9% overall) and the corresponding figures for poor water supply, sanitation, and personal hygiene accounted for 2.6 million d...
Abstract Objective: In health economics, one of the important methods of economic evaluation is cost-effectiveness analysis. The usual procedure in this method is to consider effectiveness of Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) as a measure criterion. Material and Methods: This was a cross sectional study of economic assessment type or Cost-Effectiveness. All over 30 years old population o...
The DALY Review Group of the WHO Advisory Committee on Health Research (ACHR) believes that, unless they are constructed purely as an intellectual exercise, indicators should have a function--ultimately to guide decision-making about resource allocation. Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) obscure too much and in its present stage of development the DALY approach does not solve the problem o...
BACKGROUND Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) provide a summary measure of health and can be a critical input to guide health systems, investments, and priority-setting in Ethiopia. We aimed to determine the leading causes of premature mortality and disability using DALYs and describe the relative burden of disease and injuries in Ethiopia. METHODS We used results from the Global Burden o...
BACKGROUND The disability adjusted life year (DALY) is a composite measure of disease burden that includes both morbidity and mortality, and is relevant to conditions such as epilepsy that can limit productive functioning. The 2010 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study introduced a number of new methods and definitions, including a prevalence-based approach and revised disability weights to calc...
INTRODUCTION The Singapore Burden of Disease (SBoD) Study 2004 provides a comprehensive and detailed assessment of the size and distribution of health problems in Singapore. It is the first local study to use disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) to quantify the total disease burden. METHODS The SBoD study applied the methods developed for the original Global Burden of Disease study to data ...
AIMS Estimate the prevalence of cannabis dependence and its contribution to the global burden of disease. METHODS Systematic reviews of epidemiological data on cannabis dependence (1990-2008) were conducted in line with PRISMA and meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines. Culling and data extraction followed protocols, with cross-checking and consistency check...
BACKGROUND This paper uses the Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY) to estimate disease burden at a local level and relates this to programme budget (PB) data. METHODS We estimated DALY using the global burden of disease (GBD) template. For years of life lost, local mortality data were used and for years of life with disability, the GBD estimates from World Health Organization EURO A region (...
Maternal and child health is an important issue throughout the world. Given their impact on maternal and child health, nutritional issues need to be carefully addressed. Accordingly, the effect of maternal, child, and nutritional disorders on disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) should be calculated. The present study used DALYs to estimate the burden of disease of maternal, neonatal, and nut...
