This volume is a single up-to-date source on the entire global epidemiology of diseases, injuries and risk factors with a comprehensive statement of methods and a complete presentation of results. It includes refined methods to assess data, ensure epidemiological consistency, and summarize the disease burden. Global Burden of Disease and Risk Factors examines the comparative importance of diseases, injuries, and risk factors; it incorporates a range of new data sources to develop consistent estimates of incidence, prevalence, severity and duration, and mortality for 136 major diseases and inju

The health of populations in OECD countries has improved dramatically over the past forty years, while health expenditure has been growing rapidly and now represents more than 8% of gross domestic product (GDP) in more than half of OECD countries. As a result, health systems have become the largest service industry in most OECD countries.

This first edition of Health at a Glance: Asia/Pacific presents a set of key indicators of health status, the determinants of health, health care resources and utilisation, and health care expenditure and financing across 27 Asia/Pacific countries and economies in the Asia/Pacific region.  . Drawing on a wide range of data sources, it builds on the format used in previous editions of Health at a Glance: OECD Indicators , and gives readers a better understanding of the factors that affect the health of populations and the performance of health systems.  . Each of the 32 indicators in the book is presented in a user-friendly format, consisting of charts illustrating variations across countries and over time, brief descriptive analyses highlighting the major findings conveyed by the data, and a methodological box on the definition of the indicator and any limitations in data comparability. An annex provides additional information on the demographic contexts in which health systems operate..
