• Morbidity (Prevalence, incidence)
• Life expectancy
• Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALYs)

Life expectancy• The average number of years of life at a given age in a population if
the current mortality experience were to continue• “at a given age”; So, it varies by age
• Life expectancy at birth• The average number of years a new-born baby could expect to live if current
trends in mortality were to continue for the rest of the new-born's life
• How long they will live if conditions remain as in a country in a specific year during their whole lifetime?

Question• The life expectancy is 31 years higher in Sweden (81 years) than in
Burundi (50 years). Why?
① Is it because all Swedes live 31 years longer than all Burundians?② Is it because some Swedes live much longer than all Burundians?
![Page 14: Global burden of dz online course](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f0fa461a28ab472c8b456b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

But “dying young” in Swedenis very different
from “dying young” in Burundi
“To live long” in Swedenis almost the same as
“to live long” in Burundi

Summary of Life expectancy
1) Life expectancy is an average :Most Burundi people get older than 65 years and some die in childhood.
2) Life expectancy is low when child deaths are common
:It is low in Burundi not because all die a bit earlier, but because some die much younger

Do we need other estimates of disease burden?
Due to the rise in importance of chronic diseases as the leading cause of death, along with growing
numbers of the very old,
Both mortality rates and life expectancy are useful, but
They do not tell us anything about disease burden in people living with diseases

Global Burden of Disease(GBD)
• The GBD study is a collaboration between the WHO, the World Bank and the Harvard School of Public Health.
• The concept was firstly published in 1996.• It attempts to estimate the total burden due to
diseases. • Constituting the most comprehensive and
consistent set of estimates of mortality and morbidity yet produced.

Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs)
•A single indicator of total disease burden•Combining information about mortality and morbidity in a single number.
•Internationally accepted measure of death and disability
•Increasingly cited as a powerful tool for decision makers in international health.

Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs)
Interpretation: One DALY = one lost year of healthy life
Ideal health
Current health DALY
![Page 21: Global burden of dz online course](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f0fa461a28ab472c8b456b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
All deaths are equal?
• “Premature” death deserves special attention• Years of Life Lost (YLL) due to premature death
21
YLL= N X L
N = number of deathsL = standard life expectancy at age of death in years
![Page 22: Global burden of dz online course](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f0fa461a28ab472c8b456b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Death is not the only thing that matters
Years of healthy life Lost due to Disability (YLD)
22
YLD= I x L x DW
I = number of incident disability casesL = average duration of the case until remission or death (years)
DW = disability weight (the severity of the disease:0 (perfect health) to 1 (dead))

Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY)
Facilitate comparisons of different health states or health outcomes.
•Compare the health of one population with another – and allow decision makers to focus on health systems with the worst performance
•Compare the health of the same population at different points in time
•Compare the health of subgroups within a population - to identify health inequalities

Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY)
Facilitate comparisons of different health states or health outcomes.
=> DALYs help to inform debates on priorities for health service delivery, research and planning.

•Disease burden can be attributed to • specific diseases (e.g. HIV, TB, obesity,
diabetes) and• risk factors for ill health (unsafe sex,
overcrowding, smoking, excess cholesterol, low FV).

Why are DALYs important?
• Allows to address PREVENTABLE DISEASES in each region of the world
- how much of risks to health could be avoided in future years.
• DALYs attempt to provide an appropriate, balanced attention to the
effects of non-fatal as well as fatal diseases on overall health.

Summary of Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY)
• The sum of years of life lost and years of life lived with disability.
• A summary measure of overall disease burden in a population, combining mortality and disability.
• Measuring a health gap, relative to an “ideal” life expectancy
• Currently the best indicators available now to set priorities for resource allocation.
