数据描述

The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study for 2021 provides comprehensive estimates of mortality and morbidity worldwide, examining trends from 1990 to 2021. The dataset includes detailed metrics such as deaths, Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs), death rates, and DALY rates, with global coverage across all ages and both sexes. It offers insights into major causes of death and injury globally, alongside risk factors and diseases, enabling researchers to assess the burden of health conditions and track progress over time. The dataset serves as a valuable resource for public health research, policy-making, and understanding global health trends.
