1. • Non-communicable diseases (NCDs)

     • At a global level, the majority of the burden of disease results from non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases are the next most common, and finally injuries.

   DALYs due to communicable diseases such as HIV/AIDS and diarrhoeal diseases have dropped by over 50% since 2000. DALYs from diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease more than doubled between 2000 and 2021. WHO methods and data sources for global burden of disease estimates, 2000-2021.

   May 18, 2024 · Between 1950 and 2021, the world has seen major decreases in deaths due to infectious disease, particularly among children, driven by improvements in sanitation, the delivery of specific interventions (eg, childhood vaccinations), and increased access to effective health care.

   What are the three types of disease burden?

   • Epidemiologists break the disease burden down into three categories of disability or disease: non-communicable diseases (NCDs); communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases; and injuries. These are shown in the chart below. At a global level, the majority of the burden of disease results from non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

   How is the burden of disease calculated?

   • The burden of disease is calculated using the disability-adjusted life year (DALY). One DALY represents the loss of the equivalent of one year of full health.

   Which age group has the highest rate of disease burden?

   • This is shown as the relative breakdown of the total disease burden and by the rates of burden per 100,000 individuals within the age group. As you can see, rates of disease burden remain highest among the youngest and oldest in society. They have, however, seen the most notable declines in recent decades.

   Does income affect disease burden?

   • On the other hand, the non-communicable disease burden is much less strongly associated with average income (the elasticity is estimated to be -0.13). So, higher incomes are also correlated with fewer DALYs lost to communicable diseases, but the change is much less strong.

   What is the biggest disease burden in 2019?

   • One chart shows the number of DALYs by cause, while the other shows the share of DALYs by cause. At a global level, the largest disease burden in 2019 comes from cardiovascular diseases. This is followed by cancers, neonatal disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, respiratory infections, and mental and substance use disorders.
