- The GBD 2019 study estimated that around 48% of the overall disease burden in 2019, measured in Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) can be attributed to the currently considered risk factors.

Oct 4, 2024 · The disease burden (for example deaths, years of life lost or years lived with disability) attributable to a risk factor is the disease burden that would not have occurred if people had not been exposed to the risk factor in the past.

Tables and figures display metrics for each topic, including deaths, years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), levels of exposure to risks, and percentage change over time.
Tuberculosis cases attributable to risk factors. Years lived with disease or disability vs. GDP per capita. Disease burden is measured as Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs). One DALY is the equivalent of losing one year in good health because of either premature mortality or disability.
The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 provides a standardised and comprehensive assessment of the magnitude of risk factor exposure, relative risk, and attributable burden of disease.

Although our core results are presented for all included risk–outcome pairs, BPRF metrics also allowed us to highlight risk factors with the strongest evidence of disease burden by re-calculating attributable burden estimates for three-star, four-star, and five-star risk–outcome pairs only.
Environmental burden of disease attributable to three selected risk factors. The first part presents the yearly burden, expressed in deaths and DALYs, attributable to the three following risk factors: Unsafe water, sanitation & hygiene. Indoor air pollution from solid fuel use.
