Major Field of Science: | Medical and Health Sciences | Field Category: | Health Sciences | Keywords: | Burden of disease;Cyprus;Non-communicable diseases | Issue Date: | Dec-2021 | Source: | Archives of Public Health, 2021, vol. 79, no. 1, articl. no. 138 | Volume: | 79 | Issue: | 1 | Journal: | Archives of Public Health | Abstract: | Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) accounted for over 90% of all deaths in the Cypriot population, in 2018. However, a detailed and comprehensive overview of the impact of NCDs on population health of Cyprus over the period of 1990 to 2017, expressed in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), is currently not available. Knowledge about the drivers of changes in NCD DALYs over time is paramount to identify priorities for the prevention of NCDs in Cyprus and guide evidence-based decision making. The objectives of this paper were to: 1) assess the burden of NCDs in terms of years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and DALYs in Cyprus in 2017, and 2) identify changes in the burden of NCDs in Cyprus over the 28-year period and assess the main drivers of these changes. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/22890 | ISSN: | 07787367 | DOI: | 10.1186/s13690-021-00655-8 | Rights: | © The Author(s). 2021 Open Access This article is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Erasmus University Medical Center University College London Health Services Research Center Universitat de Barcelona Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red de Salud Mental Hong Kong Polytechnic University Cyprus University of Technology Ghent University |
