The burden of legionnaires’ disease in Belgium, 2013 to 2017
incidence-based Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY s) calculation. To account for uncertainty in the estimations of the DALY s and the true incidence, we used Monte Carlo simulations with 10,000 iterations. ...

Estimates of the 2015 global and regional disease burden from four foodborne metals- arsenic, cadmium, lead and methylmercury
and cadmium resulted in more than 1 million illnesses, over 56,000 deaths, and more than 9 million disability-adjusted life years (DALY s) worldwide. The greatest impact on DALY s was in the Western ...
Global burden of intellectual disability resulting from dietary exposure to lead, 2015
global average IQ decrement attributable to dietary lead was 1.1. The total number of Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY s) arising from those IQ decrements were estimated to be 5.2 million DALY s, with ...
Global burden of cancer and coronary heart disease resulting from dietary exposure to arsenic, 2015
Life Years (DALY s) for lung, skin and bladder cancers, as well as coronary heart disease (CHD) attributable to inorganic arsenic in food. To determine foodborne inorganic arsenic exposures worldwide, we ...
Attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and the European Economic Area in 2015: a population-level modelling analysis
disability-adjusted life-years (DALY s). METHODS: We estimated the incidence of infections with 16 antibiotic resistance-bacterium combinations from European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network (EARS-Net) ...
The health and economic impact of acute gastroenteritis in Belgium, 2010-2014
cases occurring in the community. We further quantified the health impact in terms of disability-adjusted life years (DALY s) and the economic impact in terms of cost-of-illness estimates. We estimated ...
