  1. Rapid Health Transitions: Lessons from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors 2010 Dec. 13, 2012

  2. GBD 2010 Team 486 authors from 302 institutions in 50 countries

  3. Amassing the best evidence on the state of the world’s health 291 diseases and injuries 1,160 disabling sequelae of these diseases and injuries 67 risk factors 20 age groups, two sexes 187 countries 1990-2010 3

  4. Enhanced scientific rigor for global descriptive epidemiology Statistical methods designed for the challenges of global health data developed and applied. All figures have 95% uncertainty intervals. Multiple efforts at validation, e.g., deaths by cause must add up to 100%; anemia by cause must add up to total anemia. Data visualization environments used as quality control tools. 4

  5. Five high-level observations and 650 million results GBD 2010 has 650 million different findings. Bird’s-eye view provides five main messages, but detailed findings are important for many diseases, injuries, risks and for different regions and countries. 5

  6. 1) Outside of sub-Saharan Africa rapid demographic change 6

  7. 2) Progressive disease transition from communicable to non-communicable causes 7

  8. 3) The disability transition: progressive shift in burden from premature mortality to years lived with disability 1990 2010

  9. What ails you is not necessarily what kills you: global YLDs by cause and age, 2010

  10. 4) The global risk factor transition

  11. 5) The majority of burden in sub-Saharan Africa is still from MDGs 4, 5 and 6

  12. Leading causes of global DALYs shifting Infectious, neonatal, maternal Non-communicable Injuries

  13. Interactive tools to explore GBD 2010
