Abstract:

Background: Raynaud’s phenomenon is induced by excessive vasoconstriction of the peripheral microcirculation in response to environmental factors, essentially cold, but also stress or emotions. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the impact of global warming on the worldwide prevalence and severity of Raynaud’s phenomenon over the 21st century. Method: We first estimated the correlation between average temperature and prevalence and severity of Raynaud’s phenomenon. Then, we mapped the prevalence and the severity of Raynaud’s phenomenon worldwide at Christmas 1999 using historica

Abstract:

The historical prevalence of infectious diseases has had an enduring effect on innovation around the world.

Economic and social interaction between groups was greater (limited) in countries with low (high) pathogen levels, resulting in the development of individualistic (collectivistic) values, which

Abstract The immense burden of depressive disorders is on the rise, with global prevalence estimates in 2017 ranging from 4% to 13%. The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is likely to impact the established risk factors for depressive disorders. Thus, a rapid increase in depression prevalence can be expected amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Using epidemiologic data (N=111,225) derived from an extant online survey “Measuring Worldwide COVID-19 Attitudes and Beliefs” (launched by Fetzer and colleagues, March-April 2020) in 178 countries, we examined age-dependent global prevalence of depression and assess

Abstract:

Headache disorders are prevalent and disabling conditions impacting on people of all ages, including children and adolescents with substantial impact on their school activities and leisure time. Our study aims to report specific information on headaches in children and adolescents based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, that provides estimates for incidence, prevalence, fatal and non-fatal outcomes. We relied on 2007 and 2017 GBD estimates for prevalence and Years Lived with Disability (YLDs) at the global level and in WHO regions. The results show that, migraine and tension-type he

Objective. To determine the prevalence and impact of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods. Eight-hundred patients were included. The association between AITD and RA was analyzed was analyzed by bivariate and multivariate analysis. In addition, a literature review was done focusing on geographical variations. Results. In our cohort the prevalence of AITD was 9.8% while the presence of antibodies was 37.8% for antithyroperoxidase enzyme (TPOAb) and 20.8% for antithyroglobulin protein (TgAb).

Abstract:

Several cancer risk factors (exposure to ultraviolet-B, pollution, toxins and pathogens) have been identified for wildlife, to form a “cancer risk landscape.” However, information remains limited on how the spatiotemporal variability of these factors impacts the prevalence of cancer in wildlife. Here, we evaluated the cancer risk landscape at 49 foraging sites of the globally distributed green turtle (Chelonia mydas), a species affected by fibropapillomatosis, by integrating data from a global meta-analysis of 31 publications (1994–2019). Evaluated risk factors included ultraviolet light expos

Abstract:

AbstractAt the turn of the century, most of the world's population lived in regions where the prevalence of headache was unknown and its impact poorly understood. Lifting The Burden (LTB), a nonprofit organization in official relations with the World Health Organization, established the Global Campaign against Headache, with the ultimate purpose of reducing the burden of headache worldwide. First, the scope and scale of this burden had to be known. LTB embarked upon a program of population-based studies in countries in all world regions in order to achieve its aim.

Climate change is a critical global health challenge, disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations and exacerbating health disparities. With international initiatives aiming to cap the rise in global temperatures at 1.5 degrees Celsius.the urgency for effective mitigation and adaptation strategies is paramount. Despite these efforts, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have surged by 50% since 1990, intensifying the direct impact of climate change, especially in rural and underserved communities.

Abstract:

IntroductionThe scope of the challenge of overweight and obesity (OAO) has not been fully realised globally, in part because much of what is known about the economic impacts of OAO come from high-income countries (HICs) and are not readily comparable due to methodological differences. Our objective is to estimate the current and future national economic impacts of OAO globally.MethodsWe estimated economic impacts of OAO for 161 countries using a cost-of-illness approach. Direct and indirect costs of OAO between 2019 and 2060 were estimated from a societal perspective. We assessed the effect of

Abstract:

Background: The advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has transformed the prognosis of CML. Prolonged survival has already been achieved in most patients with access to these drugs, and as access improves in more resource-constrained settings, it should be expected that this improvement will become more common, thus increasing the prevalence of CML. Aim: Through this analysis, we aim to understand the global impact of targeted therapy on CML prevalence over the next ten years. Methods: Using a critically appraised set of country-specific cancer registries, CML incidence was estimated for

Introduction: Infectious diseases significantly impact pulmonary vascular disorders, particularly in developing countries where parasitic infections remain prevalent. These infections constitute a substantial yet frequently overlooked contributor to pulmonary hypertension. Discussion: This review examines the prevalence of parasitic lung diseases in regions where communicable infections are endemic and highlights their pathophysiological links to pulmonary hypertension. Schistosomiasis and HIV notably increase pulmonary hypertension risk in these areas. While other infectious diseases may also

Diabetes mellitus, commonly referred to as diabetes, is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar (glucose) levels. This abstract explores the different types of diabetes, their causes, and potential complications. It also highlights the global disease burden and the importance of management strategies. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, leading to insulin deficiency. Type 2 diabetes, the most prevalent form, results from insulin resistance or

Eight strata of 1 degree each were sampled equally throughout a 12-month period.

Abstract:

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of liver diseases ranging from simple fatty infiltration of liver parenchyma to the potentially progressive type of NAFLD called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Given the obesity epidemic, NAFLD and NASH have reached alarming levels globally. Recent data suggest that more than a quarter of the world population is affected by NAFLD, however, the disease prevalence is higher in certain patient population, i.e. 55% prevalence rate among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Besides T2DM, NAFLD is also closely related to other me
